Investment Strategy

Cultivate Ventures' Funds target a complete suite of real estate for development, adaptive reuse, or investment in other real estate funds. Our funds and pipeline are diversified across a portfolio of high-yield real estate sectors, including: industrial, residential, hospitality, health care, and real estate technology.  Portfolio allocation also targets long-term capital appreciation and short/near-term income to allow for short, medium, and long-term cash distribution planning and flexibility and smoother returns. Where possible, we develop and manage assets internally (via our in-house development group), or align with partner developers/funds for acquisition build-out, management and/or sale. ​​

Value Drivers

Cultivate Ventures Funds are typically 10 years with intent to return capital in five years, targeting annualized cash yields of 5%+ (after Y3), a pre-tax IRR of 15%+ per investment depending on risk profile, and 4x plus exit multiples. These returns are driven by a number of factors, including: 

​

  • Capitalizing off-market opportunities and undervalued property to optimize entry pricing. 

  • Identifying high cap rate adaptive reuse opportunities to drive higher rents and capital appreciation. 

  • Invest in upper trending hard real estate to maximize downside risk and reserve capital.

  • Leverage debt and other tax advantage investment structures to maximize investment upside. 

  • Take maximum advantage of complicated OZ rules to drive incremental OZ-bolstered returns while minimizing compliance costs through in-house expertise.
