Summary
CVC-SO, described in the release as a leading real estate investment firm, announced on October 21, 2026 that it has secured a combined $3 billion in commitments across two new private equity funds focused on the U.S. hospitality sector. The announcement was issued from Amsterdam and New York via ACCESS Newswire.
The two funds are designed as complementary strategies. One will target the acquisition of hospitality assets in major U.S. metropolitan areas, seeking properties with sound investment fundamentals and opportunities for operational or strategic improvement. The other will originate mezzanine loans secured by hospitality real estate, providing subordinate capital to qualifying borrowers in connection with acquisitions, refinancings, and recapitalizations. The firm said the combined structure allows it to evaluate transactions based on underlying real estate fundamentals, capital structures, and prospective returns rather than relying on a single approach.
CVC-SO said the funds will pursue disciplined underwriting, asset-level diligence, and selective capital deployment, with each opportunity evaluated on location, asset quality, operating performance, financing structure, and potential for value creation. Jasper Habsburg, Managing Partner of CVC-SO, said the current market presents compelling opportunities to acquire hospitality assets at attractive valuations and to provide structured capital to owners navigating an evolving financing environment.
The firm said both funds exceeded their fundraising targets. Investors include a diverse group of family offices and investment funds, according to the release. JP Taylor, also identified as a Managing Partner of CVC-SO, credited long-standing investors and said the capital provides substantial resources for a broad range of opportunities. The release does not disclose individual fund sizes, close dates, or target returns.
