Investments In Focus
ICM U.S. Co-Investment III LP
Product Overview
ICM U.S. Co-Investment III LP (USCI III) is a private, closed-end limited partnership focused on opportunistic U.S. real estate investments, primarily in high-growth Sun Belt markets. The strategy targets industrial and residential assets through a combination of off-market development and opportunistic acquisitions driven by capital market dislocation.
USCI III seeks to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns by leveraging ICM’s vertically integrated operating platform. Investments are sourced through long-standing relationships. The strategy emphasizes strong demographic tailwinds, targeting projects with clear exit visibility within a 3-5 year hold period.
Investment Thesis
The core thesis behind USCI III is that periods of capital market dislocation create compelling entry points into high-quality real estate at below-intrinsic value pricing. Rising rates and constrained construction financing have reduced competition and widened spreads, particularly in Sun Belt markets where long-term population and job growth fundamentals remain strong.
For investors, USCI III offers exposure to U.S. growth markets, a short-to-medium duration strategy (3–5 years) with a straightforward value proposition: invest alongside an experienced operator during a period of market reset to capture outsized risk-adjusted returns.
