We consider that every investment portfolio should include real estate exposure for the following reasons:
- It provides an excellent hedge against inflation.
- It has high intrinsic value both because demand is need-based, individuals need a place of residence and businesses need a base of operation, and because supply is limited by available developable land.
- It is capable of providing high returns, as it permits relatively high leverage on competitive terms that can vastly improve investor returns.
Within this highly desirable asset class we seek to find undervalued opportunities, that can be quickly repositioned to achieve their full potential, which provides a stable investment even through the inevitable cycles in every market.
“The purchase and sale of a primary residence should not be considered a financial one…It’s a quality of life decision that is not solely driven by financial factors. It is both shelter and a temple for the celebration of life” – Stephen M. Pollan, Financial Advisor and Author of “It’s All In Your Head”
