    Project Radar

    We are on the lookout for attractive investment or development opportunities in mixed developments, residential or commercial real estate. With synergised opportunities to meet community needs.

    Investment Strategies

    1. Medium-Long Term Income Streams – Co-investment through JVs, GPs or LPs for managed risks in real estate investments, yet tapping the higher upside potential of enbloc or government land sale development projects.
    • Medium Term Asset Enhancement Initiatives – Acquiring older commercial properties with strong upgrade or repurpose potential eg. shopping centres, hotels, commercial buildings, industrial properties for boost in capital gains and income streams.
    • Short Term Income Generating Properties or Portfolios – Tap existing income streams or arbitrage opportunities which deliver higher Rental Yields eg. UK which can produce 8% to 10% rental yields vs Singapore’s 2% to 3% yields.
    • Social-Community Projects – eg. affordable housing with earthquake resistant construction and materials, with well managed cost structures and synergies through use of technology, superior but lower cost materials, co-location strategies. Delivering  competitive price points yet healthy bottomlines with positive social and economic impact.  

    Asset Management

    Once built, we enhance property yields by outsourcing astute Asset Management.

    For developed properties, our varied and synergised asset management strategies include:

    – Creative value propositions                          

    – Repositioning            

    – Change tenant mix relative to market trends

    – Use of proptech

    – Building community and tribes      

    – Experience/activity creation to:

    a) Increase Footfall

    b) Enhance Rental Rates

    c) Keep a good lid on costs, and rentals

    d) Enable tenants to build thriving businesses, providing a good stable tenant base over the long term.
