Ayrshire Capital – Financial Analyst

Ayrshire is an investment management firm focused principally on real estate investing in Alberta. We own retail, office and residential properties in multiple markets. Our portfolio is performing above expectations with respect to rent collection but Covid19 has materially slowed investment demand associated with new acquisition or developments. This is a cyclically opportunistic time to be investing in Alberta and we need an intern to help prepare a investment deck that thoroughly supports our thesis to invest in Alberta. This deck may be specific to some opportunities in our deal pipeline but will generally be focused on relative fundamentals important to real property markets. Even before Covid19 Alberta was viewed generally as a terrible place to invest. Covid19 exacerbated the negative sentiment and has made underwriting new opportunities very difficult. Our view is that the broader private capital “market” is mis-pricing this risk and that a foundation for strong returns can often be attractive pricing in contrarian circumstances. We are note pivoting our business away from real property but will be restore National investor confidence in Alberta with a thoughtfully prepared investment package.
