Urban Assets

Lionstone believes that the urban cores of major U.S. cities represent many compelling large-scale and long-term opportunities for attractive real estate investment.  A disciplined and location-based investment strategy in the urban cores can provide attractive returns relative to risk.  Demographic, institutional and lifestyle trends support the long-term viability of urban cores.  Increased demand across all types of public and private space, in urban geographic areas that have constraints on new development, are expected to cause rents to increase.  Repositioning, redeveloping or developing assets from value added risk levels to core risk levels should lower their cap rates and raise their values.  Lionstone has developed a detailed methodology to define the urban cores, find investment patterns, target investments by location, value assets efficiently, and execute project level investment management.
