Understanding Indirect Investing

Indirect investing refers to investing via an operating partner instead of directly managing the assets. This approach allows investors to leverage the expertise of specialized partners who focus on specific themes, such as logistics or student accommodations, in different geographic regions. By capitalizing on the skills of these operating partners, investors can gain exposure to diversified real estate investments without the complexities of daily asset management. This method opens up unique avenues for university investors who can participate in real estate without committing to direct ownership.
