Alternative asset manager Tikehau Capital has joined forces with The Brodsky Organization, a US real estate developer and owner, to pursue real estate debt investment opportunities across the US.

Together, the partners anticipate investing over $500m (€432m) in US real estate debt, they said.

Since establishing its New York office in 2018, Tikehau Capital has expanded its US presence into some credit and equity real estate situations. The firm brings experience in real estate debt, with loans originated and supported by in-house underwriting capabilities, including in complex and foreclosure situations. Its New York team has been active in seven real estate transactions in the Tri-state area across hospitality, industrial, residential, and retail sectors.

Brodsky is a family-owned real estate developer with over 75 years of experience investing in, developing, and operating multifamily real estate.

The partners said this collaboration reflects both firms’ “commitment to disciplined investment principles, sound risk management, and complementary sector expertise”. The partnership aims to provide tailored real estate credit solutions to counterparties and stakeholders in the US real estate debt sector with a focus on the New York Tri-state area and the residential and hospitality sector, they added.

Mathieu Chabran, co-founder, Tikehau Capital, said: “At Tikehau Capital, we focus on building trusted partnerships with experienced operators who share our long-term perspective and disciplined approach to real estate investing. We are pleased to work with The Brodsky Organization, an institution with deep market expertise and a strong track record. By combining Brodsky’s local insight, our experience in real estate investing, and our global platform, we aim to deliver constructive capital solutions to the US real estate sector.”

Dean Amro, principal, The Brodsky Organization, added that he was pleased to partner with Tikehau Capital “to provide debt and structured equity tailored to meet the needs of high-quality real estate sponsors”.

He added: “Our combined expertise and nuanced understanding of risk allows us to fill the gaps left by traditional lenders and invest in the development of growing communities in New York and across the country. This partnership is the latest example of The Brodsky Organization’s growing portfolio of assets, opportunities and capabilities built on 75 years of experience.”
