Why private real estate
Private real estate involves investing in commercial properties across a variety of sectors, such as retail, industrial, multifamily and office. Real estate investing combines the potential for both current income and capital appreciation while also aiming to add diversification.
Growth & income
Combined potential of stable or increasing rents and property value appreciation over time.
Diversification
Core real estate has low correlation with stocks and bonds.
Inflation hedge
May provide inflation hedge, due to lease structures and supply constraints.
Diversification does not ensure a profit or guarantee against loss.

Alternative investments are investment products other than the traditional investments of stocks, bond, mutual funds, or ETFs. Alternative investment strategies may not be suitable for all investors and are not intended to be a complete investment program for any investor. Examples of alternative investments are limited partnerships, limited liability companies, hedge funds, private equity, private debt, commodities, real estate, and promissory notes. Some of the risks associated with alternative investments are: Alternative investments may be relatively illiquid. It may be difficult to determine the current market value of the asset. There may be limited historical risk and return data. A high degree of investment analysis may be required before buying. Costs of purchase and sale may be relatively high.
Commodity interest trading involves substantial risk of loss.
Digital assets are speculative and highly volatile, and their market movements are very difficult to predict. Investors also face other risks, including significant and negative price swings, flash crashes, and fraud and cybersecurity risks. Digital assets may also be more susceptible to market manipulation than securities. They can become illiquid at any time and are for investors with a high-risk tolerance. Investors in digital assets could lose the entire value of their investment.
