Putting it simply...WHAT WE DO

Heritage Capital is the property adviser to and promoter of a series of asset investment companies intended to enable ordinary people to invest in companies which will undertake the acquisition, management and eventual sale of property portfolios. Heritage Capital has been set up specifically for this by a team with over 60 years combined experience in investment property, finance and asset portfolio management.

As a result of the recent recession, interest on savings accounts held in high street retail banks is low and the stock market has proved highly volatile. Direct investment in real estate is typically now requiring substantial deposits in order to obtain mortgage finance and making a barrier to entry into such investments. Heritage Capital believes that an investment in any one of the companies advised by Heritage Capital will allow investors the opportunity to benefit from investment in a diverse portfolio of properties rather than single properties.

• A way for individuals to make investments in property without the need to be involved in the buying, letting or selling

• No personal mortgage finance or deposits required

• A way to diversify across many more properties and property types than would otherwise be possible

• All property lettings and management taken care of by Heritage Capital

• Investments from £1,000

A way to diversify across many more properties and property types than you would otherwise be able to do



The whole picture...Strategy

Heritage Capital, in advising each of the asset investment companies, will adopt a strategy of identifying suitable properties to purchase from a range of sources. Heritage Capital has a number of links with banks, estate agents and other professionals within the property market from whom appropriate properties for acquisition will be sourced. As a general strategy in providing its advice, Heritage Capital will aim to secure properties for acquisition at a 25 per cent. discount to a valuation undertaken in accordance with guidelines to valuers published by the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors.

Heritage Capital will advise that properties acquired by each asset investment company will primarily be residential properties, but should suitable commercial property prospects arise they may proceed with such opportunities.

Heritage Capital will advise a portfolio acquisition strategy which takes funds raised by companies, together with bank debt to 50 per cent. of the value of each property, to acquire not less than three residential properties, which it is then intended will be let out to suitable tenants. The drop in residential property values over the last twelve months has been well documented, so after an appropriate period of time, which should be between three and five years, the properties can then be sold enabling, subject to the companies having made a profit, returns to be paid to investors.

Financial Example

Historical research shows that the UK housing market follows a similar pattern of growth after each property price crash or economic recession. Leading property professionals Savills are predicting property market growth of approximately 10 per cent. across the UK within the next three years, followed by a further spike taking the total growth from today’s prices to over 30 per cent. of today’s prices in five years (from Savills Residential Property Focus Research May 2009). Similar growth figures have also been quoted by the Oxford Economics as can be seen in the following graph:

After 14 months of continual price drops across the market, April and May 2009 showed an increase in first time buyer purchases - the industry’s usual indicator of a property market recovery.

The following graphs show predictions of market growth across the UK as predicted by property and economy experts Savills and The Oxford Economics (May 2009).

Risk factors and costsAs with any investment, investment in any of the companies advised by Heritage Capital presents a number of risks to the value which may be returned to an investor. Each of the companies advised by Heritage Capital seeks investment solely on the basis of an information memorandum, in which are set out the main risk factors attaching to such an investment and the fees which are charged by Heritage Capital, in providing its advice, and other fees which may be charged to each company. The relevant information memorandum should be read very carefully prior to any investment being made.

Exit strategyIn providing its advice to companies, Heritage Capital will consider the likely returns from properties owned by those companies over a three to five year period. It is unlikely that any return will be paid from any investment before that period, and any investment should only be undertaken with that in mind.

This document is not an invitation to make an investment in any specific company. An investment in any company advised by Heritage Capital should only be made after careful consideration of the Information memorandum inviting investment, your own financial circumstances and your ability to bear any losses which may arise through an investment.
