CIM's urban investing discipline is based on the premise that the best way to create or enhance value is to focus on a community as a whole, by investing in varied assets or asset classes within that given community. This philosophy enables CIM to more efficiently realize the benefits of that community's transformation through each of its distinct fund risk/reward profiles. CIM's investment philosophy is non-product specific and driven by the principle that every investment should correlate with the needs of the community in both the near- and long-term. Areas of differentiated expertise include:
Urban Investment Expertise
An in-depth understanding of urban investments throughout the sourcing, acquisition, entitlement, financing, development, asset management, and disposition processes.
Due Diligence & Capital Deployment
The ability to efficiently and comprehensively conduct due diligence, underwrite, and close on investments, through any of CIM's three pools of capital.
Partnership-Orientation
A strong track record of building long-term relationships with proven sponsors as well as continuously fostering new relationships.
Flexibility
The ability to tailor investment structures to suit project, circumstance, and partners' needs.
