Cottonwood Group, a private equity real estate investment firm based in Los Angeles with offices in Boston and New York, has closed its latest fund at $1 billion. The Cottonwood Real Estate Special Situations Strategy surpassed its initial fundraising target, with capital coming from pooled-fund vehicles and separate accounts.
“We are extremely appreciative of the trust and support received from our U.S. and global institutional investors, allowing us to reach this important milestone during a period where private equity real estate fundraise is at a decade low,” said Alexander Shing, Cottonwood chief executive and founder, in a statement. “This underscores the confidence of our investors in Cottonwood’s investment platform that allows us to remain agile during market cycles, invest across the full capital stack and execute complex development or restructuring when required to unlock value.”
The strategy emphasizes real estate credit and event-driven equity opportunities, while retaining flexibility to invest across property types. At final close, the fund’s diversified portfolio included industrial logistics warehouses, data centers, multifamily housing, and mixed-use projects in high-growth U.S. markets.
Founded in 2012, Cottonwood Group has invested, transacted, and advised on more than $7 billion in gross assets. The firm positions itself as an active player in development, credit, and restructuring opportunities across the real estate sector.
