Real Estate
We utilize our in-depth operational understanding and close monitoring of macro trends currently impacting real estate to define bespoke capital deployment strategies fitting local market-specific dynamics. With an enhanced local presence in European markets and through our long-standing network of local relationships, we leverage our strong operational ethos to create value from real estate investments across all major asset classes.
Our debut fund BC Partners European Real Estate I (‘BCPERE I’) exceeded its initial target size of €500-700 million upon final close in December 2021 with total commitments in excess of €900 million. BCPERE I has made investments in France, the United Kingdom, Germany, and Italy, across office, industrial, hospitality, living, and mixed-use assets.

We have a pan European and multi asset-class approach to real estate, focused on the deepest markets such as France, Germany and the United Kingdom.

We are also considering investing into minority or controlling stakes in asset-light real estate platforms and operators with growth potential, as well as structured debt-equity instruments.
As BC Partners Real Estate, ESG is core to our investment decision making and a mandatory assessment is undertaken during due diligence for each prospective investment. For more information, please download our Strategy here.
