Private Real Estate Debt Fund -

Kirkland Income Fund

Be the bank for commercial real estate and collect steady high yield returns.

Alternative Fixed Income

The Role of Alternative Fixed Income

Alternative fixed income can help investors pursue income, reduce reliance on public-market volatility, and prioritize capital preservation within a broader portfolio.

Generates Income.

Contractual interest payments can provide a recurring income stream from borrower payments.

Reduces Volatility.

Lower correlation to public equities may help smooth portfolio returns and reduce drawdown sensitivity.

Preserves Capital.

Collateral-backed lending and seniority in the capital stack can help support principal protection, though all investments involve risk.

Below, see how the Kirkland Income Fund applies these principles through collateral-backed private real estate debt.

Investment Strategy

  • Micro-Balance Commercial Real Estate Bridge Loans

    Loans from $200,000 to $1.5 million are a niche with significant supply and demand imbalance, creating a unique opportunity for high returns.

  • Principal Preservation-Focused

    All loans are first lien, full recourse with borrower personal guarantees.

  • Conservative loan-to-values

    Only as-is property value is used. After repair value (ARV) and construction loans are not considered.

  • Secondary and Tertiary Markets-Focused

    Economically sound yet underserved geographic markets where property values have shown stability over time.

  • Defined Exit Strategy

    Loans must demonstrate a clear path to a long-term refinance and are for experienced borrowers only.

  • Positive Impact

    High proportion of minority and women borrowers. Loans support middle-income affordable housing and small businesses in communities.
