Bellevive is co-founder of SSWZ Partners (www.sswzpartners.nl). As a result of the credit crisis and the economic recession, returns on direct and indirect real estate investments are suffering. Capital gains suddenly become losses and rental values decline. Refinancing and liquidity cannot be taken for granted anymore, and even the continuity of a real estate enterprise or fund can be at stake. Unexpected events and markets in distress put pressure on investors, banks, fund managers, tenants and auditors. As a result, the alignment of interest between market participants is very difficult to establish. SSWZ Partners offers independent guidance in real estate investment management and a fresh view focused on pragmatic solutions. We provide in depth operational experience in crisis situations combined with an international background and an extensive network in real estate investment markets and property finance.

The services of SSWZ Partners are based on some important principles:

• We are completely independent, that means that we are not related to another financial or real estate market player

• With us, you get a solution driven and no-nonsense approach, not a theoretical analyses which doesn’t correspond with your day-to-day reality

• We always work from a real estate perspective aimed at the long term potential of your investment
