Bristol & Stone launch its Baltic Investment Fund

Bristol & Stone will be launching their first investment vehicle for Baltic real estate after the summer. The company will invest in Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania, providing one of the first Western based, tax efficient vehicles through which to invest in real estate in the Baltics.

The unique features of the company are that it provides the most tax efficient vehicle through which to invest in Baltic real estate, and that it will spread the risk of investments across the three countries, and across the property sectors in those countries. This is a considerable innovation in the market, allowing foreign investors to benefit from the development of this new and fast-growing market without having to take the risk of investing directly into individual projects, or being tied to just one country or development company.

The company was founded by The Marquess of Bristol, Toby Stone, and Sacha Zackariya, all of whom have homes in Tallinn, and have considerable experience working in the Baltics over the last three years. Being based in Tallinn, the founders have been able to develop a local team that brings to investors the best contacts and local information, all of which is necessary to source and analyse investments, and to manage them effectively.

The company will invest primarily in real estate development, creating a unique bridge for foreign investors to access the high returns available from development projects but generally inaccessible to investors not firmly based in the region.

Long Term Potential of Property in Estonia

Estonia offers good opportunities for investors looking for possibilities outside the more established eastern and central European markets, such as the Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland.

While Estonian real estate – and the property investment market really only involves Tallinn, the capital – has shown some spectacular growth in the last few years – of up to 30 per cent per annum in the centre of the city – these kinds of gains have diminished for the time being. This year real estate prices look set to grow at a far more sedate pace: they may not even reach double digits.

But the attraction of Estonia is the terrific long-term potential it represents.
The attraction comes from the immediate allure of possible yields of up to 10 per cent, which is the level at which a property becomes cash positive right from the off - ie. it pays for itself. Plus, and more importantly in the long term, the attitude of the country towards the way it wants to develop. Estonia has its problems, certainly; most notable is the economic gulf between the more prosperous capital and the northeast of the country, which remains a black spot for investment and unemployment.

This area will certainly take some time to make the transition from heavy industry to the service and finance centre Estonia seems determined to become.
