Dexus Real Estate Partnership (DREP) series

Suitable for institutional and wholesale investors

Invest in opportunity


The DREP strategy targets unlisted Australian real estate opportunities, with the first and second funds in the series launched in 2021 and 2023 respectively.

Like DREP1, Dexus Real Estate Partnership 2 (DREP2) aims to deliver enhanced returns by investing throughout the capital structure in situations ranging from distress to growth, with DREP2 positioned and competing for investment opportunities as a provider of both capital and capability.

While DREP1 is now closed to new investment, DREP2 remains open to investment having completed its first equity raise closing in June 2024.

The DREP strategy is to identify and manage investment opportunities across all Australian real estate, leveraging the strength of Dexus’s platform.

Dexus has an extensive track record in operating enhanced return investment strategies. DREP offers direct access to Dexus’s enhanced return capabilities not otherwise available to investors.

Dexus combines platform strength and scale with an entrepreneurial approach to originate unique and timely opportunities to create value. As a specialist manager of Australian real assets, Dexus is highly attuned to the dynamics of the market with a vertically integrated platform and inhouse core skillsets across leasing, development, transactions and management – all key contributors to the success of the trading business.

Dexus is a co-investor in DREP2, providing an alignment of interest and an opportunity to benefit directly from the fund’s performance.
