We focus on places with the ingredients for long-term relevance: strong underlying demand, a clear role within their city or region, and the capacity to evolve as the needs of occupiers and communities change.
Projects that combine retail, hospitality, residential, entertainment, office or public space. Combining uses spreads income across different sources and makes each component more valuable than it would be alone. We look for schemes with enough scale to establish their own character, and enough flexibility that the mix can be adjusted as a district matures.
Shopping, dining, markets, landscaped commercial areas and destination-led developments. We look for locations with established footfall or a solid reason for it to develop, and layouts that allow the offer to be refreshed over time.
Hotels, resorts, leisure, cultural and entertainment projects, both independently and within larger developments. We work with established operators and assess these projects as much on the strength of the operating business as on the real estate beneath it.
Private colleges, university campuses, research facilities, student housing and education-focused developments. We invest in education-related property both as a standalone asset class and as a component of larger mixed-use schemes. They anchor the districts around them, generating housing, retail and service requirements that extend well beyond the campus boundary.
Purchasing existing properties and operating assets outright, generally where an asset is already performing and would benefit from an owner prepared to hold it and invest in it over time.
Building new projects, either independently or alongside local partners.
Investing alongside landowners, developers, institutions and operators. Structures vary by project, and we are comfortable with both majority and minority positions where the partnership and the governance are right.
Acquiring entitled, partially developed or underperforming projects and adapting them to a stronger long-term concept. This may mean altering the mix of uses, changing the operating model, completing a stalled scheme or reworking a master plan around a clearer idea of what the place should be.
The strongest opportunities combine a compelling location, established demand, experienced partners and the scope to grow, evolve or serve more than one purpose. Expansion into new markets remains selective, guided by long-term potential and the opportunity to create lasting value through considered investment and development.
If you have a project you would like us to consider, we would be glad to hear from you.
