Our History
In the fall of 2010, against a backdrop of significant uncertainty in the global economy and financial markets, we created Private Pension Partners (P3) and launched our first limited partnership (the “Growth Fund”) as a ‘blind pool’ – we owned no properties, nor had we targeted any properties for acquisition. In other words, our partners were asked to entrust us to invest their capital indirect real estate in accordance with defined investment objectives, strategies, and principles.
The Growth Fund’s initial acquisitions were existing multi-family apartments that were improved to a higher rental standard leading to meaningful value enhancement. We initially targeted the Winnipeg market, not just because we knew it well, but also due to the relatively stable market fundamentals (i.e. vacancy, absorption, new supply levels, financing availability) relative to other Canadian markets. Due to the attractive returns on new developments, the Growth Fund has evolved from rehabilitating existing buildings to building new and our second real estate limited partnership (the “Core Fund”) focuses on acquiring existing assets for value add repositioning – the next evolution of the P3 story.

Our Values
Performance Over Pace – We will make sound asset management and operational decisions, even if that means that our partners’ property portfolios grow more conservatively. We seek strong financial performance of our portfolio over the long term and we will only raise capital through new and existing investors to the extent that we believe that we can prudently invest.
Quality Over Quantity – We acquire, reposition and/or develop high quality investment real estate and will be selective in our decisions with a focus on quality as opposed to the number of acquisitions.

Bottom-up Over Top Down Investment Management – Our search for quality real estate investments begins with the review of the financial results, physical condition, and location of the individual property with secondary regard to industry issues and the overall economy; that is, we consider the property first. Once a property portfolio or individual property is found that meets our acquisition criteria, we then consider how it is expected to compete within the industry and then to the broader economy.
