REI believes that the best investment decisions are made when the experience of the fund manager is coupled with rigorous analysis of facts on the ground rather than noises in the marketplace. REI’s information databases and research reports help fund managers in both investing as well as fund raising.

Private Equity Investment research

REI helps fund managers make better investment decisions by keeping them updated about the investment activity in the Indian real estate market. We believe that it is essential to identify the capital demand-supply scenario in a particular geography and asset class, before making an investment decision.

Subscription to REI’s investment research products enable fund managers make better investments by giving them a verified account of the deal activity in a particular region and asset class. REI offers standard reports and customized research solutions to meet the information needs of the Indian Private Equity real estate investor.

Fund Raising Research

We do realize that raising a fund is a time consuming task and requires time and focus of fund managers which makes them hard-pressed for managerial bandwidth. We help investment managers in fund raising mode through the following offerings:

1. Fund Raising scenario research: As the Indian Private Equity real estate market matures, “opportunistic” funds will give way to funds with a more focused investment strategy. As larger funds get raised for the Indian real estate market, it becomes imperative for fund managers to search for a differentiation strategy.

   REI’s private equity database helps fund managers find out which are the funds that were closed recently in the market, their sizes, their LP profiles, the strategies used by these funds etc. We help fund managers identify differentiating strategies and shortlist potential investors and placement agents based on these. We also introduce fund managers to our network of Limited Partners and placement agents.

2. Information requirements for the Private Placement Memorandum (PPM): REI helps fund managers by giving an aggregate analysis of the fund raising and investment scenario in the Indian Private Equity real estate market which can be used by them to validate their investment strategies. This would enable the fund manager to focus on marketing the fund while outsourcing the research requirements to REI, thus shortening the time taken to close the fund.

Geographic Research

Successful investment strategies are created by combining leading macroeconomic indicators with micro-market details. REI helps fund managers identify fundamental factors driving real estate demand in the country; evaluate them and do a targeted profiling of regions which would see considerable real estate activity.

This research allows fund managers to stay ahead of the curve, and make superior investment decisions.

Due Diligence & Consulting Services

Real estate investments in India carry significant risks because of the fact that, in India, the Real Estate sector is very low transparent in nature. Therefore a special emphasis must be laid on the due diligence process. REI helps fund managers hedge the risk of incomplete information by procuring and analyzing data pertaining to a particular developer and/or a particular project.

REI analyses comparable transactions to help fund managers determine the right value for the deal. REI also performs feasibility study and provides consulting services for various real estate projects.

Events

REI conducts regular events in which we bring together fund managers who are in fund raising mode and Limited Partners looking to invest into “India focused real estate funds” as part of their global portfolio allocation strategy.

REI also organizes specific region focused events where the fund managers have an opportunity to meet the leading developers of that region
