Conception of Fractional Ownership

There occurs a quality commercial building worth 50 crore, engenders good cash flow and is a leased asset to a verified institutional-grade tenant. Aleksa (a new age investor) is looking to participate in the kind of asset with all the above said features but only wants to do it with just 25 lakhs.

Traditionally, 25 lakhs wouldn't allow Aleksa to invest in individual institutional-grade properties until Fractional Ownership. It enables to divide the 50 crore worth assets into fractions or shares that represent equity and debt in the underlying asset. It means that this asset can now be accessed by a wider pool of institutional investors, individual investors, and fractional investors like Aleksa. Hence, enabling the new age investors to participate in new opportunities at a fraction of the cost previously required

Investing in a CRE opportunity is the choice of knowledgeable investors than any other opportunity. This is since stock markets are unstable and banking products like Fixed Deposits give capital protection but with low returns if interrelated with the rise economics. Thus, the investors prefer to invest in CRE as the opportunity delivers a balance of these features, has a physical underlying asset, the capability to preserve capital and generate monthly or quarterly cash flow as well.

Fractional Ownership is a model that has been in existence in various developed economies like America, Singapore, and Hong Kong and is now gaining traction in India. The fractional ownership platform delivers a portal where individuals can get together to purchase an asset, enjoy the yield it generates and finally be able to sell their fraction when they want, thus enjoying capital gains. The platform also manages the asset and simplifies any pay-outs from the asset and automatically distributes these pay-outs to fractional owners like Aleksa.

In simple terms, Fractional ownership enables a person, to own a fraction of a pre-leased asset worth 50 crore, with a small capital size of 25 lakh, and enjoy the financial privilege like that of a 50 crore asset owner such as an institutional-grade asset, verified tenant, and a cash flow.

Fractional ownership helps in creating a diversified portfolio that distributes and minimizes the risk. Now with just 1 crore, an investor may buy four different kinds of assets, at four different locations with the assistance of people having specialized knowledge and vast experience, to manage the asset while working on behalf of them.

Aligned with the message of technology i.e. empowering people to create financial futures, and, fractional ownership, is driving equality and transparency.
