WHY INVEST IN THE CARE HOME AND SPECIALISED HEALTHCARE MARKETS?
The care home sector is anti-cyclical and has a low correlation with the generally offered “economy driven” investments. Increasing demand due to the aging population and the lack of supply, combined with continuous backing of the sector by public policies supports long-term positive prospects of the asset class. Real estate investments in the sector offer above average returns, supported by stable and long-term cash flows.
WHY THREESTONES CAPITAL ?
