AVANTA Residential (the “Company’), a private real estate firm focused exclusively on the Build-To-Rent (BTR) industry, announced a new preferred equity investment program designed to meet the capital needs of today’s BTR sponsors, investors, and borrowers.
Through its preferred equity investment program, AVANTA is looking to partner with qualified sponsors to finance ground-up developments, acquisitions, and recapitalizations.
“The elevated interest rate environment coupled with changes in both debt and equity capital markets have created a need for high leverage preferred equity in the BTR space. Despite these challenges, certain sponsors continue to identify viable investment opportunities and AVANTA is prepared to help capitalize, or recapitalize, those opportunities,” said Peter Spier, president of AVANTA.
“When you partner with AVANTA, you also gain access to the deep capabilities and experience of Hunt and Invesco Real Estate, two of the largest, most successful real estate companies in the world. Our capital and experience can support your success,” concluded Spier.
As a dedicated BTR development and investment company, AVANTA has a unique vantage point to understand the challenges and opportunities of each project that pure financial investors may not have. AVANTA’s diversified team has significant experience in development, acquisitions, asset management, property management, and construction. The team understands each project is unique and in a different stage, and AVANTA has the skill set and the capital to support sponsors to create successful outcomes.
