REInvest Capital

What REInvest Capital does

REInvest Capital SA is a privately-held, value-add real estate investment and development firm founded in Geneva, Switzerland, in 1995 (with predecessor activity by Dan Meyer dating to 1990). The firm identifies market anomalies in real estate cycles and acquires properties — primarily in Switzerland — through off-market sourcing and direct negotiations, then redevelops or repositions them to unlock commercial and community value. Its current portfolio includes 130,000 sqm under development or redevelopment, with landmark assets such as the 70,000 sqm former Swisscom Bern office portfolio (anchored by the Bern Tower), the 250-unit Lausanne residential redevelopment, the 20,000 sqm Croset Parc Commercial, and the 256-unit Croset Parc Residential project.

The business model combines direct property acquisition and redevelopment with selective joint-venture capital deployment, including a EUR 50 million Berlin residential fund (2007), a CHF 100 million Swiss office JV with a publicly listed partner (2006), and exclusive Swiss operating-partner status for Morgan Stanley's Real Estate Special Situation Fund since 1998. Revenue derives from asset management and development fees plus investment returns on principal capital, with partners Dan Meyer and Tamer Amr reporting combined transaction volume exceeding CHF 2 billion and average portfolio ROI above 20%. International expansion has been pursued through JV partnerships with local operators in Spain (Praktik Hotels, hotel development), Germany (Berlin fund), and India (DMI Finance).

REInvest differentiates through a hybrid skill base — partner backgrounds span Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Soros Real Estate Partners, Lehman Brothers/PSP Swiss Properties, and JP Morgan — combined with deep Swiss local-government and cultural relationships, exemplified by the HOCHHAUS BE creative interim project, the Swiss Pavilion sponsorship at the 2018 Venice Architecture Biennale (Golden Lion for Best National Participation), and the public-private Stadtgrün Bern natural-reserve partnership. The firm operates with 11–50 employees from its Grand-Lancy headquarters, and does not publicly disclose pricing, AUM, or revenue.
