Cradle-to-grave property is a core business

摘要

Alternative" real estate, which is gaining in popularity among UK institutional property investors, is alternative by name, but not by nature. Alternative assets are labelled so, only because they are not retail, industrial, leisure or office investments. These asset classes include: accommodation (market, social, student and elderly housing); social infrastructure (the assets facilitating the provision of healthcare, education, transport, energy and waste management); storage (domestic and commercial, energy related, vehicle and boat); government property (law courts, prisons, army barracks); and assets linked to death (cemeteries, funeral parlours).
