In this research, an attempt is made to present the field of real estate funds in Slovenia, to point out the differences between private and public real estate funds, and explore some possibilities of public-private partnerships in this field. ‘Consumers in Europe’ (2009) Eurostat data shows that in 2007 Slovenia belonged to the states which had more than 80% of owner occupied dwellings in their total housing stock, 4.8% of the stock presents commercial rental units and only 1.3% of the stock consists of non-profit rental apartments. This issue is being examined in order to establish whether an introduction of Real Estate Investment Funds to Slovenian legislation and their cooperation with public funds could contribute to solving the problematic lack of rental apartments in Slovenia, especially in the non-profit segment.
