WHAT IS MEP? The Manufactured Equity Product, or MEP, is so called because it offers investors the opportunity to pre-purchase residential properties at developer cost price by participating in the initial equity funding of the projects. The typical investment return equates to a 10% – 20% effective discount to the property price, or generally 20% + annual return on equity invested. The MEP is the ideal investment for property investors as it offers both the benefits of higher potential investment returns from development and the security of property ownership at project completion.

investment steps

MEP Investors pay $125,000 for a Unit in the Trust (the MEP Unit Trust)

Each MEP Investor enters into a pre-sale purchase contract to acquire an apartment for list price – say $500,000

Investors may be required to provide a 10% deposit for the purchase contract by way of a bank guarantee or cash

Construction period (of approximately 2 years)

Investors settle on the acquired property

Post settlement, investors have the right to receive return of capital and investment returns – equating to an average payment of up to $200,000 comprising:

1. A return of capital paid for their Unit in the Trust, being $125,000; and

2. A Trust distribution payment equal to approximately 15% of the market value of the apartment purchased, up to a maximum cash amount of $75,000. Please note that the forecast investment returns are not guaranteed and may vary if costs changed or the remaining apartments are not sold at expected rates.

Although the investment return on Units is capped at a maximum cash amount of $75,000, investors will be entitled to the full benefit of any capital growth achieved for their apartment between entering into the purchase contract and completion of the purchase.

The team has a demonstrated track record across all areas of property development and investment.

How much do I need to start?

The initial deposit usually equates to 20% – 30% of the independent valuation of the property. For example, if you are to purchase a two-bedroom apartment that is worth $500,000, the initial contribution could be from $100,000 to $150,000. In addition, you may also be required to provide cash or a bank guarantee for a 10% deposit on the property purchased, which on a $500,000 apartment would be $50,000.
