Capital Pearls

Status: Transfer in progress

The Capital Pearls transfer has been lodged in the Deeds Office. A reminder to investors: there’s a 3-year rental guarantee from transfer with a 4% escalation. We aim to pay the first dividend in October for the period ending in August (the first full quarter of collections).

Transformation in action!

The BlackBrick Gardens construction team is on-site, carefully dismantling the old structure to pave the way for a vibrant new development. May saw the removal of the roof, marking the first step in this exciting transformation.

One on Anne

Completion: Waiting for transfer

The property is complete, and we’re awaiting the final municipal approvals and an electrical compliance certificate before the transfer is registered. This should be finalised in a few weeks. Investors can look forward to guaranteed net rental returns of 9.5% for 24 months.

Volley Brooklyn

All Volley Brooklyn units are now officially under EasyProperties as of May 2024. We plan to distribute dividends in October for the period ending in August (the first full quarter of collections). Construction has also started on Volley Baileys, their second student development.

Back to News

EasyProperties is a juristic representative of First World Trader (Pty) Ltd t/a EasyEquities which is an authorized Financial Services Provider (FSP number 22588). All trades on the EasyProperties platform are subject to the legal terms and conditions to which you agree to be bound. The EasyProperties platform enables users to invest in securities which includes whole shares and fractional share rights (FSRs). EasyProperties acts an agent for the issue of whole shares, where the investor is the registered owner of those shares, entitled to dividends, participation in corporate actions and all the economic benefits and risks associated with share ownership.

In respect of FSRs, EasyEquities acts as principal to a contract for difference issued to the investor, where the investor will have a contractual claim against EasyEquities to the economic benefits and risks associated with share ownership (price movements and dividends) without having ownership rights in the underlying share. Fractional share rights (FSRs) which are issued through a contract for difference, are an over the counter derivative. Unlike whole shares, FSRs do not carry any voting rights. As the investor makes further investments in FSRs and ultimately ends up with a whole share, the contract for difference is closed out and ownership whole share is delivered to the investor.

The availability of any share on the EasyProperties platform is based on various factors but is not an indication of value and does not mean that any share is an appropriate investment for you. The value of a share is not guaranteed. The value can go down as well as up due to variable market factors. An investor may not recoup the full amount invested. Past performance is not necessarily an indication of future performance. Examples and/or illustrations are not guaranteed and are provided for illustrative purposes only.
