Americas, Core
Our extensive U.S. Core platform, utilizing commingled funds and separate accounts, provides institutional investors access to high-quality, income-producing real estate across various sectors, including logistics, residential, retail, office, life sciences, student housing and self-storage, in select U.S. metropolitan markets.
For more than 50 years, we have established a strong track record for clients in U.S. core real estate, implementing an investor-operator model that leverages full vertical integration. We believe that our approach, combined with our deep understanding of tenant demand and modern building enhancements, drives income growth and ensures sustainable value creation. By focusing on property-level initiatives, we aim to bolster the longevity and desirability of our investments, enhancing their ability to deliver long-term returns.
We focus on consistently getting the big calls right through proprietary research, market intelligence and a cycle-aware approach to investing and risk management. We construct a diversified, highly leased portfolio characterized by modern assets with state-of-the-art features that are projected to outperform on a risk-adjusted basis. This strategy aims to deliver a stable, income-driven rate of return over the long term, with the potential for both income growth and asset appreciation. Across all our core investments, we enhance value through active management and property-level improvements, utilizing our proprietary operating models to deliver highly desirable buildings.
