Why Real Estate?
Diversifying your portfolio with real estate investments through Countrywide Capital is an excellent way to balance risk and reward. Real estate has historically delivered above-average returns, and since it’s backed by a tangible asset, it’s less vulnerable to the market uncertainties that often impact stock prices. Unlike other asset classes, real estate also provides a reliable hedge against inflation.
Countrywide Capital's unique investment strategy.
Most fund companies focus on the large deals that make up 30% of the market because managing and developing multiple smaller projects simultaneously is challenging. Many companies are not structured to handle the volume of projects, as each one requires extensive due diligence and significant administrative effort, resulting in higher overhead costs. As a result, funds with substantial capital often target fewer, larger projects, missing out on many lucrative opportunities.
Countrywide Capital recognized the potential in targeting the remaining 70% of the real estate market and found a way to manage small to mid-sized investment projects at scale, making them accessible to investors.
By streamlining the process with our proprietary software, we can automate workflow tasks such as proforma calculations, online investment offerings, construction management, and tax filings, while keeping overhead costs low. This enables us to deliver higher returns to investors.
Additionally, by partnering with established developers and operators across various markets in the US, we offer deal flow, diversification, and unique investment opportunities to fund companies.
Reasons for funds to invest with Us
There are several reasons why it makes good sense for funds to invest in Countrywide Capital real estate projects, including:
Fund diversification
Funds can invest with Countrywide Capital as a way to diversify their portfolio. Perhaps your fund currently lacks real property holdings and you want to allocate a portion of it to capitalize on the real estate market. Or maybe you’re already investing in real estate, but your fund is too heavily focused on commercial properties, and you’d like to add residential investments. Alternatively, you might have too many long-term holdings and wish to incorporate some short-term real estate projects. In each case, you can invest a percentage of your fund with Countrywide Capital to easily increase your real estate exposure.
With Countrywide Capital’s flexible offerings, you can choose from value-add projects, ground-up developments, and multi-family rentals, each of which can help you build a more balanced fund portfolio.
Short-term real estate investments
Our short-term real estate investment projects offer unique benefits for fund investors.
These short-term options include house flips and smaller multi-family developments, with hold periods ranging from 6-24 months. They provide an excellent opportunity for funds seeking more liquid investment options.
For example, let’s say your fund has raised the capital needed for your next investment project, but you won’t need all the funds immediately. Instead of leaving the money uninvested, you can allocate it to short-term options with Countrywide Capital. This strategy allows you to grow the capital in the short term and have it returned to the fund by the time you need it.
Put your overfunding to work
After raising capital for your investment fund, you may find that you have more funds than needed for your project. With excess cash on hand, you want to put this money to work for your investors, but it might not be enough to purchase a new property. Instead of letting that capital sit in a low-return account, you can invest it with Countrywide Capital to generate higher returns for your investors.
With our low minimum investment amounts, you have an easy and accessible way to put extra capital to work efficiently.
