In real estate equity, returns depend on the project's final outcome and the ability to create value through acquisition, management, transformation and sale.

Allonbay Aura was exited with a 61% gross return and a 21.5% IRR, far above the initial scenario, thanks to stronger sales, cost control and tax efficiency.

Lavapiés 50 offers the opportunity to invest in an almost fully renovated building in central Madrid, featuring 19 apartments, a retail unit, the Reside Plan and a preferred return for Urbanitae investors.

Value-add, debt and CRE each play different roles in a portfolio: growth, return visibility and diversification beyond residential assets.

Urbanitae equity cannot be understood through target returns alone: execution, market, event-based liquidity, time horizon and waterfall structure also matter.

Francos II completes the equity ticket for a newly built office project in Boavista, with architectural approval granted and a 15% preferred IRR for Urbanitae investors.

In real estate equity, IRR is not enough: the hurdle defines when profit sharing changes and how investors and sponsors are aligned.

The Passeig de la Pau project closes with an 11.49% IRR in Ibiza after 45 months, with more than 750 investors and solid execution.

The key is no longer deciding “what to invest in,” but how to balance your real estate portfolio across different asset types.
