As the US financial and credit crisis has worsened and real estate markets have deteriorated, a group of Canadians, with extensive experience in real estate investment and development, securities, real estate law and capital markets, saw an opportunity to capitalize and profit from the substantial drop in US real estate prices.
US residential real estate prices have plummeted as much as 70% in some markets as a result of the credit (sub-prime mortgage) crisis. While the economic recession in the US has resulted in decreased spending, and higher unemployment in many areas, the large number of foreclosures and "short sale" real estate properties available for sale has created an unprecedented opportunity for astute investors with the "right" investment vehicle.
Despite the significant number of companies offering US real estate investment opportunities, none of the current groups have (in our opinion) proposed a truly viable investment vehicle, especially for the Canadian based investor.
The Optimus US Real Estate Fund was formed with a number of key features that distinguishes it from other real estate based funds. For example, Optimus:
- Provides its investors with solid security and transparent accountability for all invested funds;
- Has a multi-disciplinary professional management team, with substantial experience in multiple US real estate markets;
- Developed a thoroughly researched tax structure, based on the income tax laws of both Canada and the US, to optimize investor returns;
- Conducted in-depth analysis of over 100 US cities to select the most opportune centres to acquire assets and maximize return potential;
- Utilizes a three pronged approach to real estate investment, which we call the "Diversified Strategy";
- Ensures that its investors, not its directors, receive the majority of the profits generated by the investments.
Come see what makes the Optimus US Real Estate Fund uniquely suitable for your US real estate investment needs.
