REDI is a global, investor-led collaboration. It is not a new reporting standard. It is a practical, agnostic data model designed to operationalize existing standards and support real estate investment management reporting.

REDI enables General Partners to produce one standardized structured data export to accompany traditional LP PDF investment management reports.

Why Structured Data Matters

  • Real estate portfolios are larger, more complex, and increasingly global.
  • Investors require structured data to manage risk, exposures, liquidity, and valuations.
  • Current reporting often relies on PDFs and custom templates, creating inefficiency.
  • Standardized definitions enable reuse, comparability, and future AI applications.

Governance & Versioning
