from purchasing poorly leased properties where the subsequent renovation or re-positioning is able enhance it yield returns and even capital appreciation and future saleability

This value-add strategy in investment usually has a higher risk, but it also yields higher returns. As that’s the case, we will give you an overview of what value-add real estate is and how it works, so you’ll know whether or not it’s something that would interest you.

Value-Add Compared to Other Approaches

Value-add is one of the four broad categories in which all private real estate investments are grouped. The three other types are:

Core – A lower-risk and lower-return strategy that uses relatively low leverage and focuses on stable, fully-leased, and multi-tenant properties located in steady, strong market areas. This approach is a sure bet and requires no renovation and thus no additional investments.

Core Plus – This strategy uses the same properties as the core strategy, but with increased opportunities for improvements through renovations and expanding the number of tenants for example. It is a moderate-risk strategy.

Opportunistic – A higher-risk and high-return approach like value- add, which uses development projects, extensive enhancements, and other re deployments.

Risks in Value-Add Real Estate

There are real and significant risk involved in value-add properties which often requires significant renovations and/or rebuilding renovations like property enlargement, capital improvements, structural repairs and refinishing.

Repurposing construction works often involve some extensive changes like major overhaul or conversion into a property for a different use which brings with them higher costs and higher risk (e.g. future market once renovations complete).

Less intensive projects like increasing the size of the property, replacing fixtures and building systems, or cosmetic upgrades carry lower risks than full overhauls or conversion projects which change the use of the building known as ‘adaptive reuse’ and these kinds of projects carry considerably more risk.

Further, risks become higher for real estate investments in secondary or even tertiary markets.

However, the potential gains are also very high. Value-add was, and still is the favoured strategy for raising and deploying capital.

Value-add strategies have become increasingly popular. Many real estate investors must create value today to gain higher returns, which prompts the higher attractiveness of value-add property.

Essentially, value-add assets can be acquired today for more attractive costs precisely because they are perceived as having a higher risk.

Ultimately, it’s up to you to see whether or not this strategy will work for you.
