Real estate, restructured and completed.
We acquire stalled real estate developments, put their financing and planning on a new footing and bring them to completion. Alongside, we build a portfolio with stable income.
Stable income · Holdings
Commercial leasing
Property management for commercially let assets, focused on reliable tenants and predictable cash flows.
Hospitality and tourism
Property management for hotel and leisure assets, let or leased to experienced operators.
Value creation · Development
Real estate development
Our own developments and the redesign of existing plans, aligned with market prices and bankability.
Distressed real estate
Acquisition of failed or stalled projects, restructuring of their financing and completion with our own partners.
Approach
From standstill to completion.
Every project starts from a different place. Our way through it follows the same order.
Assess
Construction status, plans, financing and legal position. We establish quickly whether, and on what terms, a project can work.
Restructure
Negotiations with creditors and lenders until the liabilities match the realistic value of the project.
Redesign
Where needed, we adapt use and floor plans to the market, on the same floor area and with new economics.
Complete
Delivery with selected general contractors, followed by a sale or a transfer into our own portfolio.
Track record
Selected projects.
Three cases from our portfolio. Locations are given by region; details are available on request.
- Situation
- Fully planned as two two-family homes, but neither financeable nor saleable at the required prices.
- Solution
- A redesign on the same floor area into 20 compact apartments made the project financially viable.
Redesign completed
- Situation
- Acquired as part of a property package.
- Result
- Leased to two tenants, the property generates a steady surplus.

Special situations
Project failures cannot be planned. They can be resolved.
Beyond our regular pipeline, we review selected large-scale projects in distress. These engagements are project-based and include sourcing the equity and debt capital they require.
- Transaction structuring on a project-by-project basis
- Equity and debt sourced through our network
- Negotiation with creditors, banks and administrators
