Investment Discipline

Rockpoint believes that its focus on value-oriented investing provides downside protection.
Disciplined Focus
Rockpoint maintains a focused yet flexible approach regarding market, property type, and capital structure, with a goal of maximizing risk-adjusted returns at the portfolio level by proactively targeting specific investment types given existing market conditions. Rockpoint targets markets that exhibit strong long-term economic drivers and favorable demand / supply dynamics, and assesses opportunities across a variety of residential and commercial real estate property types, to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns.
Investment Thesis
Rockpoint targets real estate investments that fall into three broad categories:
Basis-driven investment opportunities. An important aspect of Rockpoint’s fundamental value investment approach is acquiring assets at attractive bases relative to replacement costs and stabilized cash flows, and with meaningful downside protection across varying market cycles.
Cash flow enhancement and value creation opportunities. Rockpoint focuses on acquiring high-quality, well-located assets with identifiable opportunities to increase cash flow and create value through active asset management and strategic property management. As part of the underwriting process, Rockpoint develops a strategic plan for each asset which generally (i) improves revenue streams through focused leasing and other initiatives; (ii) targets operating expense reductions; and (iii) implements cost-effective capital expenditure programs to upgrade or reposition underutilized assets. Rockpoint believes that its proactive approach to asset management and strategic property management provides value creation opportunities without relying on (i) robust economic growth; (ii) significant improvements in market fundamentals; or (iii) ongoing strength in the capital markets.
Inefficient Pricing. Asset-specific issues and/or short-term capital market dislocations may create situations offering attractive risk-adjusted returns, as they are often priced inefficiently. Examples may include, but are not limited to: (i) restructuring and/or recapitalizing dysfunctional or misaligned partnerships; (ii) mezzanine debt, preferred equity or other hybrid securities for high-quality real estate assets; or (iii) investing in controlling debt positions in distressed real estate or real estate companies.
