UBS REALTY INVESTORS LLC


General description and ownership UBS Realty Investors LLC (also referred to as “we”, “it” “our”, or the “firm”) is organized as a Massachusetts limited liability company and serves as an investment advisor to commingled real estate funds and real estate separate accounts with institutional clients.

As of December 31, 2018, we had $27.48 billion of real estate investments through commingled real estate funds, $3.21 billion in individually managed discretionary real estate accounts, and $428 million in non-discretionary real estate asset management accounts. Included in these assets are ancillary cash and cash equivalents generated from the property operations.

We specialize in the acquisition, management, development, improvement, leasing, and disposition of direct real estate properties, primarily apartments, office buildings, retail, industrial complexes, and hotels. We also invest in participating mortgages. We have approximately 207 employees and are headquartered in Hartford, CT, with regional offices in San Francisco and Dallas. The firm has a subsidiary investment adviser that focuses on investing in agricultural properties. The firm also has a limited purpose broker-dealer through which we distribute the private placements managed by us or the farmland adviser. We have four commingled real estate funds offered as private placements; one closed-end commingled real estate fund that is closed to new investors and several individually managed real estate accounts. The firm periodically seeks to offer new closed and open-end funds and separately managed accounts investing in real estate.

Since 1978, UBS Realty and its predecessor companies have provided a wide array of real estate investment management services on behalf of its clients, which include corporations, state and municipal governments, foundations, offshore and private investors. UBS Realty has invested utilizing a variety of strategies ranging from acquiring existing unleveraged investments to developing projects with significant leverage. We primarily invest through core equity, participating debt, and value-added strategies. These strategies have been implemented through open-end and closed-end funds as well as individual client accounts. UBS Realty Investors LLC is an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of UBS Group AG. UBS Realty is the primary US real estate business within the Real Estate & Private Markets (REPM) investment area of UBS’s Asset Management business division. UBS’s involvement with this real estate asset management business began in 1999, when UBS Asset Management acquired Allegis Realty Investors LLC, which was renamed UBS Realty Investors LLC. Allegis had been formed in 1996 when Aetna Realty, which started this business in 1978, divested its third-party real estate investment management business as part of its strategy to exit the financial services business and focus on health insurance. Type of Advisory Services We offer investment advisory services to investors and to commingled funds (structured by us) that wish to invest in real property investments and participating mortgages. We are generally the investment manager of such comingled funds and serve as the general partner, managing member or in a similar capacity to the fund. Investors choosing to invest their assets in a commingled fund are purchasing shares of, or units in, a commingled fund. In these cases, the fund is the firm’s real estate client. These investors are accordingly not advisory clients of the firm and do not impose restrictions on how we invest the commingled funds above and beyond the restrictions set forth in the funds’ documents. Clients who invest through individually managed real estate accounts may be viewed as advisory clients if the clients are obtaining securities-related advice with respect to any ancillary cash generated by the real estate. These clients can impose investment guidelines or restrictions tailored to their needs under their advisory agreements. We do not target our advisory services to non-institutional clients and we do not participate in any wrap fee programs.

Separately managed real estate account clients determine investment guidelines and restrictions, such as limitations on how much can be invested in a property type or how much can be invested in any one geographic region. They communicate these guidelines to us in writing. We then tailor an overall strategy and a real estate investment plan designed to conform to the objectives, guidelines and restrictions. If a real estate investment decision involves action not permitted under the applicable guidelines, the approval of the client is required prior to taking such action. please register to get more info
