PLAN FOR THE FUTURE WITH FINANCIAL STABILITY
The various GBP2 funds have provided constant and stable returns to investors throughout the past 10 years. Our real estate ventures have proven to be a solid investment option for our investors. Focused exclusively on Industrial and Office type properties has allowed GBP to provided a low risk profile that achieves higher market profits, even throughout economic downturns.
INDUSTRIAL PROPERTIES
Industrial properties represent the core of GBPs investments due to the moderate risk that derives from their low operating costs and high demand. This asset class represents a lower risk when compared to hotels, retail, multi-family and office properties. This also means that there is high demand from investors, which drives prices high and returns low. By doing research on off market deals, GBP has been able to acquire premium properties with better than market returns. By diversifying between primary and secondary markets we are able to achieve double digit returns for our investors.
OFFICE PROPERTIES
At GBP we always focus on strong market locations, our buildings represent more than just working spaces to our tenants. Before acquiring a property, extensive research and analysis is made to improve the possibilities of retaining tenants, thus minimizing our exposure to vacancy.
