Thylander welcomes investments from professional and semi-professional investors as defined under the AIFM Directive. This includes national and international pension funds, insurance companies, foundations, family offices, and high-net-worth individuals. Due to regulatory requirements, our funds are not open to retail investors.
The strategy in our closed-ended residential investment funds balances risk and return by focusing on housing projects in Greater Copenhagen - one of Europe’s most stable real estate markets. We combine build-to-core investments with selected value-add opportunities, creating both downside protection and return potential. At the same time, we apply moderate leverage to ensure resilience across market cycles.
With nearly four decades of experience and more than 350 real estate transactions completed, Thylander has a long-standing record of creating value throughout market cycles. All prior funds have met or exceeded their return targets, and many investors have reinvested across multiple fund generations - which we consider the strongest validation of our performance.
ESG is integrated throughout the entire investment process – from due diligence and underwriting to active asset management. All new development projects are certified to at least DGNB Gold standard, and we work actively to reduce energy consumption, promote circular materials, and create positive community impact through collaboration with local stakeholders. For us, ESG is not about compliance, but about long-term value creation.
Our investment strategy is centered around Greater Copenhagen – a high-demand, low-vacancy residential market with strong demographic fundamentals. By focusing on one market, we are able to source off-market opportunities and execute with precision.
