With its EuroSelect funds, IVG has very successfully expanded its position in the market for closed-end property funds and has made a name for itself as one of the market leaders in this area for several years now. The basic idea behind EuroSelect is to leverage the expected stable economic strength of Europe over the long term – in particular the business centres and metropolitan areas - for the benefit of the property industry.
Investment in EuroSelect funds is focused on selected office properties which are not only attractive from an architectural standpoint but are highly functional and efficient in their use of space. At the same time, the rental and financing agreements are long-term, while the tenants have excellent credit standing, and the buildings are located in large European cities with stable economic prospects. In this way, IVG Funds enables private investors to invest in properties with long-term rental agreements whose potential for enhanced value is supported by local asset management and IVG’s presence on the spot over many years.
The investment strategy is geared to maximizing returns while ensuring maximum security. Locations and properties are carefully chosen on the basis of an in-depth analysis of important factors for success. The funds’ structure is carefully prepared legally and tax-wise, and the funds are supported reliably throughout their terms by professional fund and asset management. Along with long-term rental agreements in connection with long-term financing, all the tenants have excellent credit ratings, an aspect which helps achieve the earnings projected in the prospectuses.
Depending on the financing conditions, rental income and the terms for buying and later selling the property, all these factors open up tax-efficient and attractive opportunities for returns for investors. EuroSelect funds stand for responsible handling of investors’ capital, reliability and financial soundness so private investors can invest in large properties and their profitability with manageable amounts.
Investments in property are an attractive alternative to other forms of capital investment, especially in the current market environment. Not for nothing are they so much more popular than other forms of investment. Their key strengths are that, as tangible assets, they offer substantial protection from inflation and the investment horizon is long-term: Fully let properties with tenants with high credit standing remain by and large unaffected by short-term market fluctuations and crises. In this situation, IVG funds aim to identify those markets which offer sustainable investment opportunities. To continue guaranteeing solid earnings and security in the future.
