Wealthy Canadians strategically leverage private real estate to build and preserve wealth, often through vehicles like the Foundation Capital Private Real Estate Trust (FCPRET). Based in the Greater Toronto Area, FCPRET exemplifies how high-net-worth individuals invest in multi-family properties in high-growth markets like Southern Ontario. By pooling capital into professionally managed trusts with a minimum investment of $10,000, affluent investors gain access to undervalued or underperforming multi-residential properties, targeting annual returns of 12-15% through rental income, mortgage paydown, and property appreciation. This approach offers passive income and portfolio diversification without the complexities of direct property management.

We pride ourselves on maximizing shareholder value and providing our investors transparency:

What is a Private REIT?

A Private Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) in Canada is a type of investment vehicle that owns, operates, or finances income-producing real estate, similar to a public REIT, but it is not publicly traded on a stock exchange. Instead, private REITs are offered to investors through private placements, typically targeting accredited investors, high-net-worth individuals, or institutional investors. They pool capital to invest in a diversified portfolio of real estate assets, such as residential, commercial, industrial, or retail properties, and distribute income (usually monthly or quarterly) to unit holders.

What is a Public REIT vs a Private REIT?

Public REITs are ideal for investors seeking liquidity, transparency, and lower entry costs. They’re suited for retail investors who want exposure to real estate without direct property management.Private REITs appeal to accredited investors willing to accept higher risk and illiquidity for potentially higher returns or access to unique real estate opportunities.
