COMUNICATO STAMPA – CONTENUTO PROMOZIONALE
AMSTERDAM, Aug. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Varia US Properties AG (“Varia US” or the “Company”), the Swiss-listed investor in the U.S. multifamily sector, externally managed by Stoneweg, an SWI Group Company, has signed a definitive agreement with affiliates of Brookfield Asset Management (“Brookfield”) in relation to 13 of Varia’s 17-property U.S. multifamily portfolio, through a newly formed USD 693.9 million two-vehicle joint venture.
The joint venture provides access to up to USD 200 million equity capital to fund future acquisitions, enabling Varia US to expand its portfolio and reposition the Company towards a higher-quality portfolio. Varia US will actively invest in the JV assets to maximise value ahead of planned disposals, with proceeds recycled into higher-quality acquisitions, enhancing liquidity and financial flexibility while reducing capital requirements associated with older, more capital-intensive assets.
The 13 properties, comprising 4,112 units located across nine U.S. states, have been divided into two newly formed vehicles, with an aggregate gross asset value of approximately $694 million, and four properties will remain wholly owned and consolidated by Varia US.
Max-Herve George, co-founder and CEO of SWI Group, commented: “Partnering with an institution of Brookfield’s calibre is a strong reflection of the quality of Varia US’s portfolio and of our platform. This joint venture gives us the firepower and the flexibility to concentrate on high-quality residential communities, while positioning Varia US to grow decisively as the U.S. living sector continues to reward scale and discipline.”
