Alternative Assets
Interest in alternative property investment assets has increased markedly since the property crash in 2008. Alternative property asset types include the following:
- Residential Private Rented Sector (PRS)
- Hotels or holiday lets
- Pubs and other licensed premises
- Sporting facilities
- Healthcare and Care Homes
- Educational buildings
- Student accommodation
While these assets have proved popular with investors, understanding the dynamics and performance of these investments can be complex.
Our specialist alternative asset consultants have a detailed understanding of this market, together with the technical abilities to analyse and interpret financial trading data. We advise a range of clients, ensuring the right lending, acquisition or disposal decisions are made.
