Brookfield Completes Transition of Non-traded R...
“Brookfield REIT” to be Distributed Through Brookfield Oaktree Wealth Solutions
BROOKFIELD, NEWS, Nov. 03, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brookfield Asset Management Inc. (NYSE: BAM; TSX: BAM.A) (“Brookfield”) and Oaktree Capital Management, L.P. (“Oaktree”) today announced the completion of the previously announced transition of the advisory role of Oaktree Real Estate Income Trust, Inc. (“Oaktree REIT”) to Brookfield and have renamed the non-traded REIT “Brookfield Real Estate Income Trust Inc.” (“Brookfield REIT” or “the REIT”).
Brookfield REIT will be distributed by Brookfield Oaktree Wealth Solutions, a wealth management platform established to offer institutional-caliber alternative investment products to qualified individual investors globally. Through Brookfield REIT individual investors can obtain exposure to the same investment teams and operating standards that Brookfield applies across its more than $200 billion of real estate assets under management.
“We are extremely pleased to formally launch the new Brookfield REIT, combining Brookfield’s vast global real estate business with Oaktree’s leading credit capabilities,” said Zach Vaughan, Managing Partner at Brookfield and CEO of Brookfield REIT. “With three newly contributed investment properties from Brookfield, the total asset value of the REIT has more than doubled to approximately $1 billion.”
Brookfield REIT’s investment strategy will remain largely the same going forward but will include exposure to certain non-U.S. markets where Brookfield has existing investment portfolios and operating capabilities. Oaktree will continue to maintain an active role by managing certain of Brookfield REIT’s assets and its liquid securities portfolio pursuant to sub-advisory agreements. Manish Desai, Oaktree REIT’s former President, has joined Brookfield and will serve as President and COO of Brookfield REIT. Dana Petitto, Managing Director of Finance in Brookfield’s Real Estate Group and 16-year veteran of the organization, will serve as CFO of Brookfield REIT.
During the third quarter, the REIT completed the acquisition of 1110 Key Federal Hill, a multifamily property in Baltimore, Maryland, for approximately $75 million. Brookfield REIT is pursuing additional near-term acquisitions across multiple property sectors, including multifamily, logistics and others.
