Real Estate Private Equity – Leste’s real estate private equity business has a proven investment track record in Brazil and the United States. It orients around thesis-driven strategies guided by the identification and analysis of disruptive forces, demographic trends, and market dislocations or pockets of distress. This enables us to invest across market cycles and sub-markets, and into both traditional and niche asset classes.

Across the real estate private equity business, we employ an opportunistic, value-driven style and a flexible approach to acquire real estate assets, portfolios, and companies and provide servicing or structured credit solutions, through regionally-focused funds. Leste looks for value in complex investments that most investors lack the inclination, resources, or ability to distill. We emphasize capital preservation and defensive positioning to build scalable platforms in partnership with strong, seasoned management teams. The real estate funds and accounts managed by Leste invest in a broad spectrum of property types and throughout the capital structure.

Real Estate Credit – Leste’s real estate debt platform manages and invests commercial real estate credit across the United States and Brazil. The funds we manage have originated and invested in commercial real estate debt opportunities across the spectrum, including mortgages, mezzanine loans, preferred equity. Our comprehensive, balance sheet-style lending capabilities and deep relationships with repeat borrowers have earned Leste a reputation as a flexible and efficient capital solutions provider.
