Logistics, residential and retirement sectors are set to be represent the largest European real estate investment opportunities across the next 12 months, according to research by BrickVest.
According to newly released research, BrickVest of those property-focused investors polled, 44 percent consider Logistics to be the largest European real estate investment opportunity across the next year, similarly 37 percent considered retirement as profitable and 33 percent for residential.
Emmanuel Lumineau, BrickVest CEO stated: “The research shows that the logistics sector remains front of mind for institutional investors, but also that non-traditional sectors like retirement homes are catching up. Speed of the investment process and access to liquidity have put off investors in the past – BrickVest is different to other real estate investment offerings in that we put liquidity at the core of what we do.”
In addition, the research also examined the factors that proved deterrents for investors looking into commercial real estate previously. According to their findings, two in five emphasized that the process to do so was not efficient enough. Morever a third of participants cited the lack of liquidity of the market as a result of the absence of an “efficient secondary market”.
