NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cadre, the leading technology-driven real estate investment platform, has launched its latest investment offering, the Cadre Horizon Fund. The Cadre Horizon Fund builds on Cadre’s exceptional track record (~28% realized net IRR) and will enable an even wider base of investors to access a diversified portfolio of premier real estate across the country.1 The Horizon Fund also offers investors the opportunity to invest in an asset class that serves as a hedge against inflation while providing stable yield and income at a time of significant broader macro volatility.
Powered by Cadre’s high-tech/high-touch approach, the Cadre Horizon Fund features a high quality portfolio of income-oriented real estate investments in the country’s strongest markets. The investment solution is oriented towards individuals looking to invest alongside an experienced manager and diversify outside of stocks and bonds through defensive, recession-resilient sectors such as multifamily, light warehouse, and leisure hotels.2 The Horizon Fund will ultimately be an SEC-registered REIT in order to provide investors with unique tax benefits that real estate investing offers, including tax-advantaged distributions.3
According to a recent survey by Cadre and Underground Research, 73% of mass affluent investors are interested in commercial real estate and 68% want to diversify their portfolios.4 As more individuals grapple with extraordinarily high inflation and global instability, the Cadre Horizon Fund aims to help investors hedge public headwinds in private real estate markets. Over the last 20 years, private real estate has delivered returns comparable to equities with ~66% less volatility.2 Meanwhile private real estate has delivered average returns ~6.6% higher than the U.S. Consumer Price Index, a central indicator of rising inflation.5
“We have long intended to release an income-oriented product and are proud to open the Horizon Fund at an important time when more investors need the option to invest in products that provide yield, appreciation, and downside protection private real estate offers,” said Dan Rosenbloom, Cadre’s Head of Investments. “Our individual deal investments and the Cadre Direct Access Fund continue to demonstrate the wealth-building power of commercial real estate through compelling returns. The Horizon Fund represents our conviction in CRE’s ability to generate income – a feature we are excited to share with our investors.”
The Horizon Fund is another step in Cadre’s rapid evolution and growth. The firm has methodically scaled and delivered exceptional results since its founding. Cadre has invested in assets eclipsing $5 billion in value across 25 markets in the U.S., while generating an average ~28% realized net IRR and 1.8x realized net equity multiple to hundreds of clients around the world. Cadre’s experienced investments team brings rigorous, institutional diligence, and proactive asset management – paired with advanced proprietary technology and data analytics – leading to more than $460mm in distributions to investors.6 Following the close of The Cadre Direct Access Fund earlier this year, the fund generated impressive realized returns to investors with the first two property sales in the fund achieving 40.2% and 67.3% realized net IRRs and doubling investors money in less than two years.7
"I founded Cadre to expand access to premier real estate investments. With a tax-advantaged structure, lower investment minimums, and a strategy focused on delivering yield with lower volatility, our Fund is positioned to support more investors achieve better financial futures than ever before," said Ryan Williams, Cadre’s Founder and Executive Chairman. "Through the Horizon Fund, we are bringing access to a diversified portfolio of assets in carefully selected sectors such as multifamily and industrial and high-growth geographies. The launch of the fund should prove critical to improving investors' financial futures, while empowering more individuals than ever before to access and learn more about this important sector that can unlock multi-generational wealth."
Accredited investors can begin investing in the Horizon Fund and other opportunities today. Broader access to the Horizon Fund is expected to be made available in 2023.

1 Data as of 9/6/2022. IRR calculation represents an equity-weighted average annualized internal rate of return (IRR) for realized real estate investments of offerings by Cadre since the formation of our Investment Committee through to the date of calculation, after deduction of fees and expenses. Equity multiple represents the investment multiple on equity, which is calculated by dividing the aggregate realized proceeds for the applicable investment after deduction of fees and expenses. Realized and updated target returns are inclusive of all of Cadre’s completed dispositions. Realized returns are subject to change following final distributions on sold assets. Calculations are generally made as of the date of the sale of the applicable asset and may include targeted proceeds that are to be distributed to the vehicles managed by Cadre (but which have not been realized by the vehicle as of the date of calculation). The calculation of net return figures for each investment pertains to single-asset investment vehicles only. The calculation of net return figures for each investment in a multi-investment fund vehicle is difficult, if not impossible, to prepare with accuracy due to the estimation of fund-wide expenses and other variable fees applicable to each investment that are necessary for such calculations. Returns reflect net performance and are not audited. View our full track record and important disclosures at cadre.com/track-record.
