Diversify your portfolio with preferred access to Mid-Market US-CRE
Sequure offers self-certified Professional Investors independent, exclusive, and preferential access to leading US Private Equity Commercial Real Estate Funds (US-CRE) operating in the Mid-Market space through tax efficient feeder structures.
US Mid-Market CRE: Compelling Risk-Adjusted Returns
Mid-market US-Commercial Real Estate (CRE) typically refers to properties valued less than $80 million. Despite the mid-market accounting for most of the US-CRE market, most institutional capital targets individual properties valued above $80 million. The result is a capital void and inefficiency in mid-market US-CRE transactions, and an opportunity for investors seeking compelling, hard-to-find opportunities. This is a niche market with specialist US GP’s creating funds to target the Mid-Market sector. Sequure aggregates global investors to invest in carefully selected Mid-Market funds. Sequure targets US Managers that have a proven multi fund track record with historical consistent IRR’s of between 15-20%.

What are the risks of investing with Sequure?
Investing in feeder structures for US real estate entails substantial speculative risks. Those who cannot bear the potential loss of their entire investment should reconsider investing. Prospective investors should carefully review the risk cautions and disclosures provided for the specific fund or investment vehicle on the platform, as well as the risk disclosures on the Sequure website.
Investments may both increase and decrease in value, with no guarantee of recouping the initial investment. Past performance serves as no guarantee for future results, and it’s important to note that investing in a fund differs significantly from depositing funds in a bank. For comprehensive information on potential risks, charges, and expenses, refer to the fund documentation.
Furthermore, investors usually receive illiquid and/or restricted membership interests, which may be subject to holding period requirements and liquidity limitations.
In a prudent private equity investment strategy, private equity should constitute only a portion of your overall investment portfolio. This allocation might encompass a diversified range of private equity funds. It’s crucial to recognize that private equity investments lack liquidity, and individuals who cannot commit to holding an investment for an extended period, typically at least five years, should reconsider such investments.
What are the fees for investing?
Please see our ‘Fees’ section on each respective offering.
All fees are only charged at the investment level, there are no general membership or subscription fees.
Does Sequure provide investment advice?
Sequure does not provide personalised investment advice to individual clients. We recommend seeking guidance from your investment advisor or consultant.
