Introduction
About Riva
Riva is a pan-European Real Estate investment firm. Our team has the necessary diverse origins, backgrounds and qualifications to successfully invest in the real estate of tomorrow. Riva’s management has achieved above average returns for over two decades, including in a recessionary environment. Riva’s main focus is wealth preservation and building a long-term relationship with our investors.
We are very hands-on managers and we have a deep understanding of our markets. Riva’s traditional DNA is residential and mixed-use real estate. Riva delivers modern, sustainable and highly efficient living environments matching the future housing, shopping and working needs of different demographic groups, from students to families.
Riva today is actively focusing on the socio-economic factors that are shifting the way of living and impact on the real estate dynamics of the cities.
We are in the middle of a new industrial revolution. Real Estate lags behind other industries and this creates known “blue ocean” opportunities.
Examples include new Life-Cycles, Co-living and other living strategies, Edge Data Centers, Quick Commerce, Dark Kitchens, Self-Storage, Dark Stores, Health & Wellness innovation and Mall-to-Mix concepts and operator models.
Riva is purposefully focusing on these alternative real estate uses, rather than having them as an afterthought. We strive to fully understand these new business models in order to provide them with strategic real estate solutions.
Our focus is the future

Philosophy
360° Expertise
RIVA’s philosophy is to be involved in every detail of the project, from the layouts of each apartment to amenities and common areas and to the services offered on site. This reflects our extensive residential expertise that translates into different attributions for different clients and locations. RIVA carries out a rigorous demographic and social analysis and cooperates with established architects and landscape designers to always ensure a good balance between pricing and quality of living.
Philosophy
360° Expertise
The definition of a safe asset is changing rapidly and fundamentally:
“a shopping mall, an office building or a retail store are yesterday’s heroes and today’s villains.”
Many will become obsolete or less profitable. In other words, valuable real estate of “yesterday” will not in all cases be the valuable real estate of “tomorrow”. It’s Riva’s job to ensure these assets are re-thought and re-developed to match the needs of future businesses and consumers. We look to identify these demographic & lifestyle trends to capture today’s hidden alpha, by working not only with real estate specialists, but also with PE and VC firms.
ESG
Responsible Developments
Riva strives to deliver projects for today and looking to the decades ahead. As such ESG is a core concern to deliver timeless properties that are a value add to the investors as much as their neighbourhood & the environment. To that end we work with local specialist to be respectful of the location, follow strict certification procedures.
We see an opportunity where other people see a problem and we turn this into an investment
