Another day, another distressed fund is formed.

American Ventures Partners announced that it launched the American Ventures Strategic Property Fund to invest in distressed US commercial real estate. The fund, which will provide a tax-advantaged structure to non-US investors, has a target capital raise of $1 billion. It will focus on properties valued at more than $50 million and priced below replacement cost.

The Strategic Property Fund is targeting returns of 15% to 18%, net of fees. It will be backed by conservatively leveraged, well-located Class A properties and supply-chain facilities. The portfolio will maintain low and moderate leverage while controlling tenant size and industry exposure.
