Mackenzie Real Estate Team
Funds under management
Exclusive to institutional mandates
Philosophy and process
The Real Estate Team believes that to successfully generate stable and reliable returns in today’s commercial real estate market, each member must take full advantage of their knowledge and experience to understand how each property will perform and ensure it is well-positioned within its geographic location. The mandate is actively managed from both a macro economic outlook perspective and an individual property asset perspective. For every property investment we use our market research, conduct a thorough investment analysis and physically inspect each property to ensure its suitability within the portfolio of existing assets. Each property within the fund is continuously monitored and evaluated to ensure that satisfactory investment performance is maintained for the investor.
