The number of properties owned by Investcorp in the US now totals more than 14,000 units.

Discussing the recent investment, Investcorp Real Estate product specialist Khulood Ebrahim said: “We are excited to further enhance our significant multifamily real estate footprint in the US with these stable, highly-occupied properties in key suburban areas. Our latest acquisitions are consistent with our defined investment approach and build upon our long history of investing in US multifamily real estate.”
