Based on the most helpful WSO content, BlackRock's Real Estate division is highly regarded, particularly for its innovative approaches and long-term investment strategies. While specific details about the London team structure aren't explicitly mentioned, BlackRock's broader reputation in private equity and real estate is strong. Their "Long Term Private Capital" fund, for instance, emphasizes a buy-and-hold strategy, which is seen as a more collaborative and less aggressive approach compared to traditional PE firms like Apollo or Fortress.
For exits, BlackRock's brand and reputation within the allocator universe are well-respected, which likely translates to solid exit opportunities. However, for more granular details about the London Real Estate team, you might need to explore further or connect with professionals in the field.
