Kamil Homsi, Co-Founder – CEO, GRC Investment Group is a single family office operating in the city of Dubai/UAE.
The pandemic had a bifurcated effect on the real estate joint venture market. On one hand the global economic slowdown created a tighter capital market creating more need to build relationships with new capital partners and more demand for joint venture partnerships. On the other hand the ongoing travel restrictions and slow downs in getting permits and government approvals have hindered the ability to form these strategic partnerships and get deals done in an efficient manner.
Real estate joint venture partnerships take many forms and are entered into for a wide variety of reasons from being able to make inroads into unfamiliar sectors, have the opportunity to pool knowledge, or being able to combine financial resources. Whatever the strategic driver for a joint venture may be, the pandemic has certainly created additional complexities and put a spotlight on preexisting risks and vulnerabilities.
Join iGlobal Forum’s Real Estate Joint Ventures virtual event and get greater insight into the fundamentals of successful real estate joint venture partnering in 2021 and beyond. Register today to join senior-level representatives from real estate private equity firms, developers and project sponsors, real estate owners & operators, senior & mezzanine lenders, institutional investors and family offices, asset managers and allocators, attorneys and accountants.
