Abu Dhabi-listed Investcorp Capital has significantly increased its real estate asset base in the United States by acquiring four new student housing properties for a total transaction value exceeding $300 million. This move marks a strategic expansion into the US housing market.

According to Zawya, the newly acquired assets are located in Texas and Oklahoma, enhancing Investcorp’s existing portfolio that already includes student housing investments in Florida and Texas amounting to $160 million. In addition to this real estate venture, the company has also funded three industrial acquisition deals in the US in August, which contributed to a gross transaction cost of approximately $300 million.

Investcorp Capital stated that its recent investment activities align with its business model and its commitment to providing semi-annual dividends of at least 8% per annum. This strategy reflects the firm’s ongoing focus on expanding its footprint in lucrative markets while ensuring consistent returns for its investors.
