Just Invest goes Just Commercial
John Roberts, CEO of Just Property Group.
In today’s challenging economic climate it is important to understand property investors’ needs. Long gone are the days where investors purely purchase property for the returns it may generate on face value.
Chief Executive Officer of Just Property Group, John Roberts says that investing in property has become a science that demands dedication and understanding.
Just Invest, a division of the Just Property Group, specialises in the sourcing, marketing and concluding of higher yield investment sales opportunities by securing bulk discounted residential units in new developments and distressed sales units, directly from the developers and the banks. Through Just Property Group ties with the residential rental division, Just Letting, these investment units are pre-tenanted and therefore transformed into a return generating investment from day one, of which around 6000 of these where sold over the past 10 years .
Just Invest is now broadening its horizons into the commercial investment sector, by joining forces with Just Commercial, the commercial division of Just Property Group.
Commercial property investment holds the key benefit of growing both its value, as well as its cash -flow income, based on the annual escalating nett rental income. This can be used in conjunction with each other to restructure the financing means into a self-sustaining project cost, self-funded for investment, within only a number of years.
Furthermore commercial property has the added advantage and investment security of having long term lease contracts with fixed escalation rates, which is not subjected to a maximum period of 12 months under the Consumer Protection Act number 68 of 2008, when dealing with the majority of tenants in their capacity of a Closed Corporation, Pty Ltd or Trust.
Bond qualification is based on the value and returns of the property and don’t require personal proof of income to secure financing. The investment property can therefore be refinanced in future to release equity in the property, solely on the lease agreements in place. To further improve returns, triple net leases can be negotiated where the tenant will be responsible for the already low maintenance costs of the rugged construction of commercial and industrial property.
Just Commercial is well positioned in the market to fill investment properties with tenants to keep occupancy rates to a maximum, as well as managing the property to free up the investor’s time.
Investment possibilities in different price categories will be hand selected and pre-qualified, based on best return on investment performance and income security, and promoted via a property alert email to our investment audience.
