The two properties, also referred to as the Brickstone Boulder portfolio, collectively consist of 312 units and 463 beds and are within walking distance of the University of Colorado Boulder (CU Boulder) campus. Renovated in 2015 and 2016, the properties are adjacent to the CU Boulder campus, have views of the Rocky Mountains, and are proximate to the Pearl Street Mall and Downtown Boulder. Both properties feature modern interior unit finishes, including stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, oversized closets and wood-style flooring.
The City of Boulder is home to more than 36,000 students at CU Boulder and has one of the nation’s largest concentrations of tech workers. The presence of major employers and a large research university, combined with convenient access to an abundance of outdoor recreational activities, continues to attract strong technology and life sciences talent seeking a higher quality of life.
“Rental properties in Boulder seldom come to market, but the Brickstone Boulder portfolio was a rare opportunity to lend on two high-quality assets where institutional management provides value to students and their families,” said CPREIF Portfolio Manager Janet Souk. “As a significant investor in Boulder, Clarion Partners believes there are positive long-term tailwinds for the city’s student housing market, which has consistently maintained very high occupancy and shows no signs of slowing down.”
Clarion Partners, a leading U.S. real estate investment manager, is part of Franklin Templeton’s alternatives business, which spans a broad range of strategies, including real estate, private credit, hedge funds and secondary private equity and co-investments with approximately $224 billion in assets under management as of June 30, 2022.

*The acquisition of The Lodge represents 4% of relative percentage of the holding of the entire portfolio (100%), and The Parker represents 2% of relative percentage of the holding of the entire portfolio (100%); both figures are as of August 5, 2022. Characteristics and holding weightings are based on the total portfolio and are subject to change at any time; they are provided for informational purposes only. This information should not be construed as a recommendation to purchase or sell any security. There can be no assurance that any unrealized investment described herein will prove to be profitable.
Investment Risks
The Fund is recently organized, with a limited history of operations. An investment in the Fund involves a considerable amount of risk. The Fund is designed primarily for long-term investors, and an investment in the Fund should be considered illiquid. Shareholders may not be able to sell their shares in the Fund at all or at a favorable price. Fixed income securities involve interest rate, credit, inflation and reinvestment risks. As interest rates rise, the value of fixed income securities fall. High-yield bonds possess greater price volatility, illiquidity and possibility of default. The Fund’s investments are highly concentrated in real estate investments, and therefore will be subject to the risks typically associated with real estate, including but not limited to local, state, national or international economic conditions; including market disruptions caused by regional concerns, political upheaval, sovereign debt crises and other factors. Asset-backed, mortgage-backed or mortgage-related securities are subject to prepayment and extension risks. The Fund and/or its subsidiaries employ leverage, which increases the volatility of investment returns and subjects the Fund to magnified losses if an underlying fund’s investments decline in value. The Fund may use derivatives, such as options and futures, which can be illiquid, may disproportionately increase losses, and have a potentially large impact on Fund performance.
Liquidity Considerations
The Fund should be viewed as a long-term investment, as it is inherently illiquid and suitable only for investors who can bear the risks associated with the limited liquidity of the Fund. Limited liquidity is provided to shareholders only through the Fund’s quarterly repurchase offers for no more than 5% of the Fund’s shares outstanding at net asset value. There is no guarantee these repurchases will occur as scheduled, or at all. Shares will not be listed on a public exchange, and no secondary market is expected to develop.
Before investing, carefully consider a Fund’s investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses. You can find this and other information in each prospectus, or summary prospectus, if available, at www.franklintempleton.com. Please read it carefully.
All investments involve risk, including loss of principal. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
Any information, statement or opinion set forth herein is general in nature, is not directed to or based on the financial situation or needs of any particular investor, and does not constitute, and should not be construed as, investment advice, forecast of future events, a guarantee of future results, or a recommendation with respect to any particular security or investment strategy or type of retirement account. Investors seeking financial advice regarding the appropriateness of investing in any securities or investment strategies should consult their financial professional.
