Kingbird Investment Management

"Real estate as an investable asset class has some great opportunities, at the multifamily level in particular...[we see a] very bright 10 years runway where we have this sort of demographic mismatch between supply and demand in the US, [and] in the UK, in Canada and Mexico, too,” says our Chief Investment Officer Vincent DiSalvo in an article in PERE Credit profiling Kingbird.

Kingbird Investment Management was honored to sponsor the New America Alliance’s Inaugural International Symposium in Mexico last month. Our CFO and COO, Luis Raúl Solá Benítez, CPA, CCIM, Managing Director of Capital Markets, Lei Farrand, and Senior Associate of Capital Markets, Robert J. Beverley, had the privilege of engaging with distinguished leaders and colleagues from the investment management industry.   Over two days, insightful conversations between cross-border institutional LPs and GPs focused on strategies for driving exceptional investment outcomes and identifying opportunities for asymmetric returns in today’s evolving market. As we recently marked the conclusion of Hispanic Heritage Month, we are pleased to share some key takeaways from this impactful event. #KingbirdInsights #HispanicHeritageMonth #diversemanager #emergingmanager #realestateinvesting  

In a new report, the The Counselors of Real Estate® identifies challenges and opportunities facing the real estate industry next year and beyond, including: $1.8 trillion in commercial loan maturities due in 2026, insurance costs soaring due to extreme weather events and, in some welcome news, a narrowing of the buyer-seller price gap. With an investment strategy rooted in a research and fundamentals driven analysis of macro trends -- and a rigorous focus on underwriting micro (“bottom-up”) dynamics at the property and market levels -- we believe that an unlevered yield-focused strategy ultimately drives superior risk management outcomes and portfolio performance. Learn more about our approach to constructing real estate investment portfolios: https://lnkd.in/eWhyvMHa #KingbirdInsights #multifamily #creinvestment

Today is officially the last day of Hispanic Heritage Month, and we're happy to recognize Senior Associate, Capital Markets Robert J. Beverley, a specialist with nearly a decade of experience in the investment management industry. Based in San Juan, he is responsible for dynamically supporting the overall equity capital formation and investor relations activities of the firm, while working closely with the acquisitions, finance, and asset management teams. Robert joined Grupo Ferré Rangel in 2023 and previously served as an Associate at Parliament Capital Management, a $350MM private equity and credit fund manager and as a Fund Controller in Land & Buildings Investment Management, a $650MM, activist public equities hedge fund focused on real estate. Kingbird's entrepreneurial mindset, institutional rigor, and disciplined investment approach—along with its commitment to making a positive impact on the communities it serves—continually inspires Robert to deliver exceptional value to clients. We're excited to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month every day as a Hispanic-owned business, as we believe our diversity of backgrounds, perspectives and experiences will ensure the next generation of multifamily market rate and attainable housing meets the needs of an increasingly diverse U.S. population. We believe that creating strong risk-adjusted returns for our investors and social empowerment for our communities – particularly underserved populations like the Hispanic community– are not mutually exclusive. In fact, our focus on social empowerment is deeply ingrained in our role as a fiduciary to deploy and manage private real estate capital as we seek attractive risk-adjusted returns on behalf of other family offices, qualified clients and institutional investors. Thank you for all your comments and reactions to our posts this past month where we shared profiles of our exemplary team and the organizations we are involved in that champion Hispanic leaders. #KingbirdImpact #HispanicHeritageMonth
