We create lasting impact for our investors, teams, businesses, and the communities in which we live. Over four decades we have strategically grown our platform to focus on Private Equity, Growth &amp; Venture, Capital Solutions, Credit &amp; Capital Markets, and Real Assets. Today, our team includes 1,950+ employees in 24 offices on four continents.

 Real Estate Overview
 
 
 
 Since 2010, senior members of the Bain Capital Real Estate (&ldquo;BCRE&rdquo;) team have refined a thematic and nimble business model, focused on thesis-driven and resilient portfolio construction, designed to capture long-term demand growth and changing customer needs and preferences for real estate. Our team, which is led by Ryan Cotton, Partner, and comprises over 100 dedicated professionals, has been thoughtfully constructed to capture market opportunities at scale. To date, our strategy has been utilized for the acquisition of over 600 assets with total equity commitments of $9.8 billion. This includes, but is not limited to, acquisitions across BCRE Fund I ($1.5 billion, 2018 vintage), BCRE Fund II ($3.0 billion, 2020 vintage), the BCRE Life Science Fund (~$800 million, 2021 vintage), and BCRE Fund III (Raising, 2023 vintage) value add-plus real estate funds focused predominantly on thematic investments in North America. We believe that while our business model is built to succeed in a broad range of environments, it is particularly well suited for the current period of volatility, with distress likely to create attractive deal flow over the near to medium term.
 
 
 Averaging over 20 years of applicable experience, Bain Capital Real Estate&rsquo;s 13 Partners and Managing Directors have long and varied careers creating and managing innovative real estate and private equity investment platforms across an array of investment environments.

They also have direct lines into long-time industry leaders as well as up-and-coming real estate players across a variety of asset classes and specialties. The team draws upon this foundation of complementary expertise and experience to source opportunities, drive value, and mitigate risk. As part of Bain Capital, the real estate team leverages the collective scale, experience, and network of the firm&rsquo;s global platform to augment sourcing efforts as well as to deepen insights and understanding of underlying secular themes driving demand and changing customer needs and desires across sectors germane to its current portfolio as well as future investment themes.
