£90,000 Crowdfunded High Yield Investment
Crowd2Let identify a suitable modern 2-bed mews house in a popular location in North East England. The vendors are very eager to sell for financial reasons. The asking price is £89,950 and we negotiate hard to agree to purchase the property on your behalf at £80,000. The property had been worth circa £110,000 in September 2007.
The property requires full redecoration, re-carpeting, some light maintenance and preparation for letting. The cost of this refurbishment plus all other costs associated with sourcing, purchasing and letting the property are included in the original £90,000 investment “package” price. Legal costs for the purchase, along with building and contents insurance premiums for the first year, are also included.
A detailed property report outlining a full breakdown of all of the projects costs is made available to a Crowd2Let investor when they have registered and logged into their personal dashboard. Investors read the report and decide to invest in the property in multiples of £500. To keep the math’s simple we will say in this example that 90 people eventually crowdfund the investment with £1,000 each, ie the £90,000 full package price. An SPV is created for the 90 landlords as described in How It Works.
The property is refurbished then let at £495 per calendar month and each of the 90 investors earns £4.84 per calendar month in rent or £58.08 per annum after deducting our 10% plus VAT management fee. The return is of course proportional to the initial investment, ie if an investor had invested £5,000 in this property they would receive £24.20 per month in rent.
This is a 5.8% annual yield on each £1,000 net cash investment.
The refurbished property is independently valued in the current market at £94,000 which is £4,000 more than the total amount invested representing an “instant” equity increase of 4.4%. Realistic anticipated capital growth of 4% per annum over a 10 year cycle would increase the value of the property to £139,000 at the end of the 10 years. This would mean that each investors initial £1,000 share of the property would now be worth £1,544 in addition to the monthly rent they had received!
This is a gross combined Yield plus Capital Growth asset backed return on your investment of 14.4% in year 1 alone.
