Products and Services

• Neighbourhood Retail

  Investing in neighbourhood retail focusses on properties that serve the everyday needs of local communities. These often include shopping centers anchored by supermarkets and pharmacies, which are considered recession-resistant and essential services. The strategy is to provide stable and resilient rental income streams through leasing spaces to tenants that offer non-discretionary goods and services.

• Large Format Retail

  Large Format Retail investments target retail properties that house tenants in sectors like home improvement, furniture, and electronics. These properties typically feature large, single-tenant or multi-tenant buildings catering to specific consumer needs. The appeal lies in their ability to attract well-established retail chains that require significant floor space, potentially leading to long-term leasing agreements and stable cash flows.

• Health & Services

  With an investment focus on Health & Services, HomeCo Daily Needs REIT recognizes the growing demand for healthcare and related services. The portfolio includes assets such as medical centres, gyms, and other health-related services facilities. These investments are designed to capitalize on the demographic trends pointing towards an aging population and a growing focus on wellness, which supports the expectation of sustained demand and income stability.
