The starting fundamental of real
estate fund management is the ability to connect investors with
similar objectives, in short: long term outperformance. Therefore,
maintaining high level contact and intelligence with and about
capital providers - large scale investors and banks - is the
effective fund manager's lifeblood. Internos has a dedicated and
very high calibre capital raising team led by Jos
Short, Executive Chairman, which can demonstrate close
relationships with global capital, often backed by past investment
successes. Investors can therefore expect that Internos will
demonstrate:
- Regular contact with and intimate knowledge of large scale
investors
- A convincing capital relationship team highly regarded within
the industry
- A database of global real estate investors
- Regularly maintained and updated contacts with banks with
significant stressed and distressed real estate portfolios
- The ability to match capital with opportunities - including
those that can best be progressed outside of the strict parameters
of a real estate fund - such as those emerging as some banks
'unbundle' from commercial real estate involvement and create
important recapitalisation and revitalisation opportunities
Expertise
Before Internos, and before heading Pramerica Real Estate in

Internos Hotel and Leisure Division, Harry Hanekamp, Head of the
Netherlands Office and Rupert Kirby, Head of Debt.
