About us
One-Stop shop for Development and Investment in Guyana
Gotham Investment & Development Inc. is a business focused on investment & development opportunities in different fields, but primarily in residential and commercial real estate. With capabilities in both investment and development, Gotham approaches every project within an all around concept which ensures our criteria are met and quality standards are assured. We are based in one of the most exciting development regions in the world at the moment - Guyana. The Gotham team has a long standing history in the country, long before the excitement created behind the recent oil discovery. The unique nature of Guyana and the lack of development of the country create both an opportunity and a difficulty in the field of development - which can especially be tricky for foreign investors trying to navigate this Caribbean paradise. Gotham is in the position to ensure proper development with a value added approach to investment - ensuring returns.
Our Approach
Our philosophy is based on a partnership co-investment business model on investment and development opportunities:
01
Potential for Growth
We look at a property as if it were a child. Our role is to bring it up to its full potential. We are NOI driven but also revenue driven.
02
Conservative but aggressive...
Conservatively aggressive approach
Valuations based on intrinsic value and not market hype, “greater fool” punts, lead investor names or "comps". Conversative pricing is indicative of long-term and well-aligned management teams and investors.
03
Flexibility
If a deal is good, we can move very quickly because we are a private group. This gives us preferential access when discretion and/or speed are required by the seller.
04
Asset value
Quality assets with strong in-place or near-term free cash flows, particularly in out-of-favor sectors where historically we have found remarkable opportunities
05
Be the Investor...Co-Invest
Direct investment and inclusion on capitalization table or shareholder registry; no funds. Our approach embodies different investment methods: Equity, preferred equity, royalties, convertible debt or debt investments
06
Diversity & speed for success
We want to finance out our cash as soon as possible – selling is rarely the optimal source of liquidity. Once the initial money is invested we prefer never to put in another investor penny.
Market - Guyana
The Land of Many Waters
Guyana, located on the northeastern Atlantic coast of South America, has been experiencing a remarkable transformation. Fueled by the discovery of vast offshore oil reserves, the non-oil economy including growth in services, construction, the production of other crops and a surge in foreign direct investment, Guyana's strategic position and rich natural resources have made it an increasingly attractive destination for investors. This surge in investment has not only propelled rapid economic growth but has also significantly impacted the general market, including real estate, particularly in the capital city of Georgetown and other growing communities located near Georgetown.
Guyana is categorised by its abundance of natural resources, including oil and gas, gold, diamond, bauxite, arable land, sparsely populated pristine rainforests and savannahs. The total land area of Guyana is 196,850 Km2 (76,004 sq. miles) and the current population is 817,875. The population is expected to grow exponentially as the Guyanese diaspora return home and there is a huge influx of expats moving in, following the country's oil discovery which has propelled its development.
With its rich natural resources, strategic geographical location, and a surging economy, Guyana has emerged as a beacon for global investors seeking untapped potential. The real estate market, in particular, has become a focal point for discerning investors aiming to capitalize on the country's economic upswing.
The skyline has been evolving rapidly, with high-rise apartments and commercial buildings reshaping the urban landscape. The residential market is bustling with new housing developments offering modern amenities, while the commercial sector is thriving with increased local and foreign investment in office spaces, retail outlets, warehousing and logistics centers, and hotels. This growth has not only boosted the demand for residential properties and commercial spaces but has also attracted global attention and investment to the country's real estate market. Further investment opportunities exist in the development side of the country which lacks most infrastructure needs for its growing economy. The initiative for development is moving rapidly and while opportunities are vast, the need for speed to capture those opportunitites is increasingly imperative. Cooperating with Gotham Investment & Development Inc. makes those opportunities a reality.
