It is more common for them to make safer investments, reducing the risk. This is because their business may still be at risk and they are looking for safe investment.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The second type<\/strong> is a family which <strong>already sold their business<\/strong>. They sometimes go for riskier investments, as they are more open to different options. However, they never make high-risk investments.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Family offices generally invest in the service-based market and the residential market<\/strong>, as they are looking for low-risk investments. A large amount of capital is destined to office buildings and another part goes to residential rental buildings.<\/p>\n<p>However, in the last few years, family offices have started to invest in retail, especially in prime areas.<\/p>\n<p>One standout characteristic of family office investments is that most of the time they go through with their investments without any external financial help.<\/p>\n<p>This allows them to be more agile and flexible in their investments.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>At Cat Real Estate, we are experts at managing family office heritage, as we are currently managing assets with a total combined worth of 800 million \u20ac.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Thanks for sharing!<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"swp_social_panel swp_horizontal_panel swp_flat_fresh  swp_default_full_color swp_individual_full_color swp_other_full_color scale-100  scale-\" data-min-width=\"1100\" data-float-color=\"#ffffff\" data-float=\"none\" data-float-mobile=\"none\" data-transition=\"slide\" data-post-id=\"34408\" ><div class=\"nc_tweetContainer swp_share_button swp_twitter\" data-network=\"twitter\"><a class=\"nc_tweet swp_share_link\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=%C2%BFWHAT+ARE+FAMILY+OFFICES%3F&url=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.catrealestate.com%2Fen%2Fwhat-are-family-offices-2%2F\" data-link=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=%C2%BFWHAT+ARE+FAMILY+OFFICES%3F&url=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.catrealestate.com%2Fen%2Fwhat-are-family-offices-2%2F\"><span class=\"swp_count swp_hide\"><span class=\"iconFiller\"><span class=\"spaceManWilly\"><i class=\"sw swp_twitter_icon\"><\/i><span class=\"swp_share\">Tweet<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/div><div class=\"nc_tweetContainer swp_share_button swp_facebook\" data-network=\"facebook\"><a class=\"nc_tweet swp_share_link\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/share.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.catrealestate.com%2Fen%2Fwhat-are-family-offices-2%2F\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/share.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.catrealestate.com%2Fen%2Fwhat-are-family-offices-2%2F\"><span class=\"swp_count swp_hide\"><span class=\"iconFiller\"><span class=\"spaceManWilly\"><i class=\"sw swp_facebook_icon\"><\/i><span class=\"swp_share\">Share<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/div><div class=\"nc_tweetContainer swp_share_button swp_pinterest\" data-network=\"pinterest\"><a rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"nc_tweet swp_share_link noPop\" href=\"https:\/\/pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.catrealestate.com%2Fen%2Fwhat-are-family-offices-2%2F\" onClick=\"event.preventDefault();
