Positive Growth in Asset Management
Michael Cooper, Chief Responsible Officer of Dream, shared insights into the growth of their asset management platform, noting, "We are thrilled with the progress evident in our platform over the years." The firm is currently engaged in negotiations for approximately $500 million in deals across multi-family and industrial asset sectors, aiming for closures in early 2025. Currently, Dream boasts an impressive $27 billion in assets under management—a 51% increase since the previous year and a testament to the strong demand in these sectors.
Rapid Growth in Assets
Over the last two years, Dream’s asset management has witnessed substantial growth, including a remarkable rise of $9 billion.

The company is earnest in seeking additional asset management opportunities as it continues to enhance its market presence.
Strategic Acquisitions
Most recently, the company completed the acquisition of a sizeable Dutch residential rental portfolio valued at $1 billion, marking its entry into the European multi-family asset market. This substantial purchase includes 2,947 units and positions Dream alongside key partners like TPG Angelo Gordon and Stadium Capital.
Expansion of the Industrial Platform
Dream’s venture into industrial assets is flourishing. With the establishment of the Dream Summit venture, over $750 million of high-quality industrial assets and development sites have been integrated into the platform, enhancing its reach across target markets.
Strong Financial Performance
For the nine months ending September 30, 2024, Dream's asset management division reported a robust net margin of $30.0 million.
