Residential property investment is very different to commercial property investment and needs different expertise and experience in order to gain the best returns.

In general, residential property provides:

• Diversification – low correlation to other mainstream asset classes, including commercial property.
• Improved liquidity – whilst liquidity risk will exist for any property fund, it is generally easier to sell a house than a large commercial property as the residential market is larger and more active and with lower unit sizes.
• Historically greater resilience of rental income during market downturns
