Since fractional ownership basically makes the whole process much easier, here is a comparative study of how investments in commercial real estate have evolved.
Traditional CRE | CRE via Fractional ownership | |
Investment amounts | These require large sums of money, generally hundreds of crores, an investor might have to, either submit the large corpus or take loans from a bank. | CRE via fractional ownership doesn’t require investors to take loans or even invest a huge amount. Making the investment easier. |
Exit Strategy | The first priority of an investor is to earn back the loan amount. And then generate profit. | Here an investor doesn’t have to worry about paying any loan. |
An exit plan mostly involves either selling off the property or taking a new loan from the bank. | ||
Asset Liquidity | As a commercial real estate property is not a small investment, an investor has to start planning 12 months prior to his actual exit.Traditional commercial investments are illiquid and an investor will have to have his property in mint condition and also in demand for any investor to even consider. | In fractional ownership, on the other hand, the exit plan can be initiated today and in a maximum of 3 months, your share of the property will be sold off.When it comes to their fractional ownership clients, Assetmonk, also holds internal sales to speed up the process.This way the property is either sold to an existing investor or the company purchases it. |
