The SF Sustainable Property Fund invests in real estate assets and projects throughout Switzerland. The main focus of the real estate fund is on residential use. The fund systematically and gradually optimizes properties with regard to defined sustainability criteria (ESG) during the holding period and continues to expand the portfolio.
Below are two examples:
Lugano, Via Ronchetto 16-22, Via Torricelli 21-27 - Refurbishment of the property with high rental potential
The property on Via Ronchetto / Via Torricelli in Lugano is a neighborhood development built in 1970. The property consists of six houses on a hillside with a partial view of the lake. The façade and some apartments were renovated around 15 years ago, but a comprehensive core renovation has never taken place and there is therefore a need for investment. The average rents are at a clear discount to current market rents. The property is being renovated in stages during ongoing operations so that existing tenants can be offered temporary accommodation. Construction work is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2028. In addition to having a noticeably positive effect on the sustainability of the fund, the project is also economically viable with a return on investment (yield on CAPEX) of around 4%.
Arnegg, Stationsstrasse 9 - Living at the village square
In the center of the up-and-coming municipality of Arnegg near St. Gallen, a characterful development with high architectural and urban quality is being built. Buildings A, B, C and D on Stationsstrasse will be added to the SF Sustainable Properties Fund portfolio in 2025 and will increase the earning power and sustainability of the portfolio. The mixed use and the close interweaving of different types of green and open spaces not only invite people to live and shop, but also create a varied meeting place for local residents.
