Remus Capital
Who We Are
Remus Capital is a North American investment firm specializing in the acquisition, development, and strategic management of high-value real estate and operating assets across multiple sectors. As owners and operators, we focus on structured investments that maximize long-term value, balancing strong cash flow with asset appreciation.
Our portfolio spans premium hospitality, FMCG, and mixed-use real estate, including an Alcohol Distribution business in the U.S., a luxury five-star hospitality asset in Dubai, a historic winery portfolio in Tuscany, and the Lost City of Pompeii, a large-scale mixed-use development with the patronage of the Dubai Royal Family.
Each project is positioned within a broader capital markets strategy, ensuring institutional-grade execution and clear pathways to liquidity. With footprint in North America, Europe, Australia and the Middle East, we curate opportunities that align with investor mandates while maintaining a disciplined approach to structuring and deployment.
Our Strategy
Remus Capital invests in North America as part of a structured, long-term portfolio strategy. While our holdings in Dubai and other high-growth markets generate strong returns, diversification is essential. Expanding into Canada and the U.S. allows us to balance high-yield opportunities with stable, institutional-grade assets in mature economies.
Our focus is on well-leased commercial, residential, and mixed-use properties, acquired below replacement cost and positioned for long-term value creation. These assets not only provide strong cash flow but also serve a broader purpose—building a structured portfolio that can be securitized and integrated into capital markets.
Market conditions further support this strategy. The Canadian dollar’s current position strengthens purchasing power, while cap rates and valuations in key markets create attractive entry points. Every acquisition is evaluated with an emphasis on asset quality, tenant strength, and long-term liquidity.
Core Investment Criteria
Focused on North America, we target commercial and residential assets in major Canadian cities, investing $20M–$100M USD directly or up to $300M USD with JV partners. Preferring majority or full ownership, we buy and hold, securitize portfolios, or capitalize on appreciation, using third-party management for operations on held assets.
