The need for care homes in Norway is increasing due to an aging population and a growing number of individuals with specific care requirements. As a founding partner of the newly established company Infraheim, REQ, through REQ Real Estate Fund II is playing a key role in addressing this challenge through targeted investments and strategic collaboration.

A partnership with impact

Infraheim has launched its initiative with a portfolio of over 50 properties and has clear ambitions for further growth. By securing long-term lease agreements and partnering with well-established players in the care sector, the company ensures sustainable and predictable solutions for both residents and public stakeholders. REQ’s role as a co-founder is a natural extension of our commitment to identifying and executing financially attractive investments with strong underlying fundamentals.

Why care homes?

Demographic trends clearly indicate that the number of elderly people in Norway will rise significantly in the coming years. Many municipalities are already facing capacity challenges, making private investment and expertise increasingly critical. Through Infraheim, we invest in properties that are easy to manage, provide security for residents, and create stable conditions for municipalities and care providers.

REQ’s perspective: A strategic and long-term commitment

“We have thoroughly analyzed this market over time and recognized that the need for high-quality care homes will only continue to grow. Partnering with Infraheim was a natural fit, as we share the same vision of creating robust and secure solutions for the future,” says Johan Hamre, CEO of REQ.

Together with Infraheim, we are proud to contribute to meeting a critical need. Through strategic investments and a long-term perspective, we aim to provide more high-quality and accessible care homes for those who need them most.
