Equiton, a real estate investment firm based in Burlington, Ontario, has launched its US Apartment Fund (Equiton US Residential Income Fund Trust).
The fund is Equiton’s fifth open-ended private real estate fund and its first focused on the United States. According to the company, the fund is design to provide Canadian investors with access to high-potential multifamily markets in Sun Belt states, including Florida and Texas.
“For many on Equiton’s leadership team, expanding into the US market represents a natural next step and an opportunity to apply decades of multifamily investment expertise in some of North America’s fastest-growing regions,” says Jason Roque, Equiton’s founder and CEO. “As many on our team know from prior experience in the US market, its scale and depth create opportunities for long-term value creation that are difficult to replicate elsewhere.”
