Due to strong fundamentals, the Canadian private apartment REIT investment class has an excellent track record demonstrating stability during good and difficult economic conditions. Equiton is a well managed portfolio of Canadian apartment buildings with a well respected Advisory Board; focused on delivering investors the opportunity to benefit from regular income as well as equity growth of the assets. The Fund invests in large, multi-residential apartments and student housing properties across Canada. Investors in the Fund receive monthly distributions from the rental income and participate in the growth of the underlying properties. Currently, most apartment buildings are owned by individuals or small partnerships. The Fund's primary strategic opportunity is its ability to extract excess value while consolidating properties in the highly-fragmented apartment universe. The Fund drives the realization of excess value by acquiring properties below their intrinsic value and implementing an active management approach to increase rental income, maximize efficiencies and reduce expenses.
