    Partner selection

    We select the best partners for institutional investments from our international private real estate network.

    ANALYSIS OF FUNDS

    We analyse selected investment funds of our partners. If a fund fits into our portfolio, our investment team performs an in-depth due diligence process.

    YOUR CO-INVESTMENT

    Through our platform, you become a co-investor and thus benefit from the performance of the underlying investment fund. The committed capital is drawn down by LINUS in tranches over a multi-year period by the co-investors.

    our investment

    After positive due diligence, we invest our own capital in the appropriate funds and continue to remain invested over the entire term.

    REPAYMENT

    Once the underlying fund starts selling assets, the capital is paid out by LINUS to all investors in multiple payments over a period of several years.
