Overview
Crimson Investment Funds are high-return, closed-end investment funds that concentrate on acquiring undervalued real property for the purpose of improvement and re-sale. The Funds maximize investor returns by adhering to short holding periods and liquidating holdings as soon as our value-additions are complete.
The Crimson Opportunity Funds operate in lower-risk markets. The Funds seek out redevelopment opportunities in high-population-growth areas, then renovate, re-tenant or develop commercial or multifamily properties in order to unleash their greatest potential value. This strategy has produced superior returns over the past decade, as the population of the Western and Southern United States continue to expand and migration from Mexico and baby-boomer weather migration cause continuing population growth.
Historical Returns
The Management Team of the Crimson Funds has been providing exceptional investor returns on development and redevelopment projects since 1993. Average returns net of all fees to investors has been 30% for our most recent fully-liquidated funds. Expected returns for any potential opportunity must be a minimum of 30% per project.

We pool the capital of private investors into closed-end funds which we, in turn, invest in at least three real estate investments. This allows private investors to take advantage of the exceptional returns of developmental real estate while benefiting from the reduced risk of a portfolio structure.
