STRATEGY
Our Impact
As an investor in commercial real estate, ElmTree focuses on build-to-suit or newly constructed properties. We primarily focus on only the highest-quality industrial and office assets leased to investment grade companies.
ElmTree’s investment strategies and philosophies are guided by the fundamental premise that predictable cash flow and limited residual risk are the keys to creating asset value.
