"The Fund outperformed its benchmark with a +13.54% YTD return, taking advantage of deep valuation discounts in the U.K. and franchise hotel spaces while carefully hedging core exposures."
In Q3 2025, the Third Avenue Real Estate Value Fund performed strongly, returning +13.54% YTD after fees and outperforming its benchmark. Managers Jason Wolf and Ryan Dobratz highlight that structural shifts ('super cycles') are causing extreme bifurcation across property types and regions. The Fund took advantage of these discrepancies by adding to U.S. manufactured housing leader Champion Homes, U.K. student housing provider Unite Group, and French hotel franchise giant Accor SA. To manage risks, the Fund trimmed timber and housing finance preferred equities, completely exited Grainger plc, and initiated currency and equity hedges.
