Our Strategy
Why invest in the US residential sector?
In addition to a stable long-term economy, the US real estate market benefits from consistent population growth, especially in our target markets, as well as a demographic shift with an increasing preference for renting. We provide investment opportunities in institutionally managed multifamily communities, as well as portfolios of single-family homes for rent.
There is excess demand for rental housing and the South- and Southeast- are the fastest-growing regions of the United States in this respect. The “Sunbelt” region is characterized by a lower cost of living, tax advantages, and a high quality of life.
Dr. Gisbert
Beckers
“This asset class operates differently in the United States than it does in Germany. The legal framework is investor friendly and lease agreements are usually signed for a one-year term. Rents can be adjusted more quickly to reflect changes in market rents. This provides an opportunity and a risk at the same time. Investment success depends on the quality and management of the property. In the current volatile capital market environment, an inflation hedge can be achieved.”
