Kayne Anderson Capital Advisors' real estate private equity group focuses on private investing in niche real estate assets. The firm invests directly in real estate assets, primarily in sectors that require specialized skills and market knowledge, exhibit historically recession-resistant cash flows, contain strong demographic growth and fragmented ownership. They pursue an opportunistic investment approach that seeks to identify 'off-market' deals with motivated sellers with underperforming assets or assets that can be transformed through a value-add approach. With a focus on capital preservation and risk-adjusted return, Kayne Anderson seeks investments that generate immediate cash yields with significant additional growth potential. They invest mainly in off-campus student housing properties located within close proximity to large public university campuses. Their target acquisition size is generally $15 million to $80 million. They prefer to acquire property directly, but consider joint venture opportunities, particularly in niche sectors other than off-campus student housing with experienced operators who have established track records in their sectors.
