Jason Wolf, lead portfolio manager of top-performing Third Avenue Real Estate Value Fund, and award-winning wealth manager Gregg Fisher, founder and Chief Investment Officer of top-ranked investment advisory firm Gerstein Fisher, explain why they are buying properties overseas in the latest episode of Consuelo Mack.
Tomorrow’s Consuelo Mack WealthTrack explores “Opportunities in Global Real Estate” premiering nationwide beginning Friday, August 23 at 7:30 p.m. on public television (check local listings**) and on wealthtrack.com Monday, August 26.
Below is a short preview of the episode.
In this video, Gregg Fisher shares an overlooked big investment opportunity with WealthTrack Anchor and Executive Producer Consuelo Mack:
“We find that investors tend to be underexposed to commercial real estate or even real estate in general. It’s not uncommon for an investor to own their home or maybe a second home, but as a percentage of their net worth, commercial real estate tends to be tiny. It’s particularly tiny, if not even not existent, when we ask U.S. investors particularly what exposure they have to foreign real estate markets. So if you’re just wanting to add an asset class to your portfolio that has a reasonable expected long-term return that adds a diversification benefit to the portfolio, global real estate seems to be something that most investors don’t already own that would, in fact, qualify in that regard.”
Jason Wolf also shares his thoughts on the appeal of global commercial real estate in this episode video preview.
