Additional Fund Details | The Blue Spruce Opportunity Fund (“Blue Spruce”) will be a regional investment fund focused on commercial real estate in the Denver, Colorado, metropolitan area. Blue Spruce will leverage the experience of its team of development partners, who each have decades of experience sourcing and structuring commercial real estate investments in and near Denver, including multifamily, office, and retail projects. Blue Spruce management and affiliates also have in-depth working relationships with public-sector stakeholders at all levels of government. Drawing on this extensive knowledge of the regional market, it will deploy investor funds in commercial real estate in the dynamic and growing Denver metropolitan area on a long-term basis. The fund’s objective is to provide both current income and capital gains, tax-optimized under both the federal Opportunity Zone provisions and the state of Colorado’s Enterprise Zone provisions. |
