LET’S TALK ALTS

Alternative strategies for investing in real estate

Educate yourself on the types of investments available, what they offer, and the risks involved.

Public vs. private. Core, opportunistic and value-add. Dive into the key terms and concepts that can help you navigate your options when considering adding investments in real estate to your portfolio.

 

THERE ARE MORE WAYS than ever for investors to tap into the growth and income potential of real estate as part of their overall investment strategy. Each type of real estate investment, from exchange-traded REITs to private real estate funds, has its own structure and risk-and-return profile. Generally, these investment vehicles tend to offer less volatility compared to publicly traded stocks and bonds.

 

To better understand real estate investments and whether they might fit with your goals and risk tolerance, watch this episode of Let’s Talk Alts:  John McCarthy Jr., vice chairman of the board, Starwood Real Estate Income Trust, outlines for host Brian Partridge, head of Investment Solutions Group Specialists for Merrill and Bank of America Private Bank, the basics of this important area of Alternative Investments.
