Hampshire's longstanding success is attributed to the following main factors:

• Cycle-Tested Real Estate Expertise: In the 40 plus year evolution of Hampshire from a regional developer to a fully integrated real estate operator and discretionary fund manager, the Hampshire organization has developed a strong foundation of extensive, seasoned operating experience that runs the gamut of real estate activity from acquisition, development, leasing, repositioning, management and finance to disposition. It is this multi-disciplined expertise developed over numerous economic cycles that has enabled Hampshire to consistently generate above-market returns for investors.

• Organizational Focus: As an organization, Hampshire only executes one investment fund's strategy at a time. This empowers the senior most executives and principals to concentrate their talents on that investment strategy. For example, the responsibility for uncovering acquisition opportunities for Hampshire Partners Fund VI is with Jon Hanson, James Hanson and Norman Feinstein, the respective CEO, President and Senior Vice President of the firm.

• Seniority/Tenure: Another key ingredient is the seniority and tenure of our staff. Hampshire has not had one senior executive leave the firm in the last ten years. This continuity of leadership enables Hampshire to seamlessly and successfully manage its portfolio. Hampshire is also a relatively flat organization, which permits it to act and react quickly to emerging trends and opportunities in the marketplace.

• Acquisition Pipeline: For over 40 years, one of Hampshire's trademarks has been its history of superior access to transactions. In a portfolio of more than 200 properties, NONE has been acquired via a bid/auction process. Hampshire's acquisitions have been purchased via either direct negotiations with sellers (no broker involvement) or off-market negotiations (non-auctioned and not multi-buyer marketed). Capitalizing on existing relationships and a reputation as a qualified and astute investor, the majority of Hampshire's deals are off-market transactions. Hampshire's access to such off-market transactions generally results in greater deal flow and better pricing.
