Investing in Alternative Real Estate Assets

Alternative real estate investing is an elusive asset class.  Traditional brokers and financial advisors rarely direct their clients to these types of assets primarily because their firm cannot custody the investments and as a result, they lose the capital and cannot charge fees on the assets.  It’s unfortunate, but true.  Some advisors, in an attempt at altruism will direct their clients to such investments in a holistic attempt to balance out a portfolio.  Our experience has proven that alternative real estate investments should be a significant part of any balance portfolio.

 

Aggregating Capital for Greater Alpha™

At Helvetica, our goal is to aggregate investor capital to enable our investor group to attract better deals and negotiate better pricing.  It’s no secret, the more capital you have the more deals you see; the more deals you see the better price execution you will have.  Collectively, we represent close to $500 million in investor capital consisting of over 300 investors.  Our network represents a closely linked family of investors with a long history of collaborative investing.  Let’s face it, the more capital we have, the better investments we create for ourselves, friends, families and investors.   Unlike other firms, our investor group not only provides capital, but networks for deal flow.
