Thematic Real Estate Investing for Risk-Adjusted Returns
At Obelisk, our mission is to deliver superior risk-adjusted returns for investors by identifying and capitalizing on long-term real estate themes through a data-driven and geographically diverse investing approach.
Investment Philosophy
Thematic Approach
We believe traditional real estate categories are becoming less distinguishable. Instead, we focus on identifying and investing in properties aligned with major societal and economic trends that are driving demand.
Examples include population migration and further urbanization, leading to the rise of mixed-use spaces that blend the lines between retail, residential, and commercial. Additionally, we believe the e-commerce boom and automation trends are changing the future of work and living which will influence warehousing and logistics.
Risk-Adjusted Returns
