Sovereign wealth fund GIC and Orange Capital Partners are in talks to bring new investors into their €4B residential property partnership and significantly expand the venture, Green Street News reported.
Discussions are progressing with a small group of investors, who would buy a 25% to 50% stake in the venture, with GIC retaining its share.

The partners are said to have approached potential investors, including sovereign wealth funds and other long-term investors, that could provide additional capital to push the joint portfolio to an estimated €8B to €10B in value.
CBRE was hired in July to conduct a strategic review of the business.
The joint portfolio includes rental homes across the Netherlands, Denmark and Ireland, with the partners targeting expansion in other markets, including France, Germany and Spain.
All participating parties declined to comment to Green Street News.
Founded in 2014, Amsterdam-based OCP manages approximately €5B of real estate, mostly investing in affordable rental housing in northwestern Europe through LIV Residential, often through joint ventures with sovereign wealth funds like GIC and pension funds.
In 2024, the JV sought €900M of debt to refinance the Dutch element of the portfolio.
The news comes as investor interest in European housing grows. Investment in the sector rose 17% to €29.9B in the first half of 2026, according to CBRE, which highlighted affordable housing as one of the fastest-growing sectors. In the Netherlands, residential investment increased 43% to €2.71B, partly helped by a lower transfer tax.
