Consinfra

We pursue a range of investments that offer highly attractive returns, through real estate development, and redevelopment projects with emphasis on sustainable development. We also seek opportunities where assets can be acquired at prices below our estimate of value or where value can be enhanced through redevelopment, operational and/or financial management.
