The Equiti Knock-Down, Rebuild Fund provides investors with an opportunity for profit via the strategy of acquiring older-style homes and subsequently knocking-down the existing home, rebuilding a new home and selling, for a profit, upon completion.
Demand for new ready-to-move-in homes, coupled with the limited number of new homes available for sale in well-established suburbs of Sydney, has created solid fundamentals for the knock-down, rebuild strategy.
This value-add development strategy has been popular in Sydney and due to the imbalance between the high-demand for new, modern homes in well-established suburbs of Sydney and the low-supply of new, modern homes available within these suburbs.
Through the careful acquisition, design, development and sale of residential property assets that are suited to this value-add strategy, the fund aims to create a trading profit from each transaction that can be partially distributed to investors upon the completion of each transaction whilst, through an active reinvestment strategy, also achieving some capital appreciation.
As property values have rapidly grown in the past decade, well-established Sydney suburbs have become largely inaccessible to the majority of Australian investors.
The fund aims to develop a diverse portfolio across densely popular Sydney suburbia within a 20km radius from the City of Ryde. This includes suburbs such as Hunters Hill, Lane Cove, Strathfield and Concord.
Equiti conducts extensive research prior to acquiring a residential real estate asset for the fund to ensure that it adheres to the fund’s strict criteria and that it will benefit from this value-add strategy.
Equiti Capital Limited and Equiti Funds Management Pty Ltd are specialist property investment managers that aim to achieve superior returns for both retail and wholesale investors through the identification, acquisition, management and development of residential property across the eastern-Australian seaboard, whilst putting investor’s interests at the forefront of all decision making.
