Traditional Hotel Investment and Management models are under pressure
A simple comparison between the Wyndham group (one of the world's largest global hospitality groups owning many hotel brands) and AirBnB demonstrates the challenges traditional hotels are facing and how a new and innovative way of thinking can achieve rapid growth and success
Technology enables property distribution to multiple booking platforms (incl. AirBnB) in seconds
Invest in a property opportunity utilising AirBnB, Bookings.com and other online marketing platforms, while apartments are owned through a section 12J structure - providing the investor an upfront tax benefit of up to 45% of the total investment amount. In addition, up to 95% finance is available to qualifying investors via our unique SmartLoan solution.
Furthermore, properties are operated under one central brand within the AirBnB and other online platforms, ensuring the client experience the same high quality look and feel and service no matter in which decentralised location they stay.

Our SmartLoan enables our Investors to settle the entire loan in less than 5 years*
The Smartloan uses the section 12J tax benefits and returns from the investment as ongoing payments against the loan balance to settle all outstanding capital in less than 5 years. Targeted repayment periods may vary depending on the investors effective section 12J tax benefit as illustrated below:
Another way of looking at the investment is that the SARS Section 12J benefit funds 45% of the SmartLoan
The SmartLoan uses the investor's section 12J tax benefit as an additional balloon payments against the outstanding loan amount, effectively funding a substantial portion of the amount initially borrowed to invest:

Investors are advised to seek external legal, tax and financial advice before making a 12J investment. Returns are presented including a max. section 12J tax benefit of 45% and assumes a 4% CPI and 7% call account interest rate.
Investors benefit from capital growth in the asset from day 1 even while still "smartly" geared
The Investor benefits from gearing as the SmartLoan settles debt at a quicker pace than a traditional mortgage bond, while the asset is targeted to continue to appreciate in value:
Investors also start earning annuity hotel earnings via dividends once the debt is settled
Once the debt is settled, all returns from the investment is allocated to the investor via dividends, while the investor effectively owns a debt free property asset via their section 12J VCC shares.

Investment Risk is hedged and lowered by the SARS Section 12J Benefit
Investment risk should be assessed independently with reference to a number of factors, including, but not limited to the quality of the asset and the team behind the asset, but as can be seen from the illustration below, investment risk is lowered by the upfront SARS Section 12J Benefit
Investment Risk is further reduced by the intrinsic value of the property underpinning the investment
In addition to Section 12J reducing investment risk, the investor's downside risk is further lowered by the fact that the investment is underpinned by a sound hospitality property asset.
The combination of the the upfront Section 12J Benefit and asset underpinning the investment lowers investment risk

Minimum Investment Amount:
R1 million. Smaller investments may be considered and approved by the Board, provided that investment is by invitation only, only available to qualifying investors and not an offer to the Public to subscribe for shares.
Investment horizon:
Minimum 5 years | Investors may sell shares within 5 years, but such a sale will result in a recoupment of the Section 12J Tax benefit previously claimed. In addition, all sales will be regulated in terms of the waterfall approach prescribed by the Class 28 Subscription Agreement.
Structured Loan:
A Structured Loan is available to qualifying investors to fund up to 95% of their Subscription Prices for the specific class of Investor Shares. The main objective of the Structured Loan is to enable Investors to settle their Structured Loans as quickly as possible and within 5 years from the initial investment date, even while paying a monthly instalment similar to a traditional 20 year mortgage bond. Investors participating by way of the Structured Loan should therefore take note that they will contribute an additional balloon payment (which may be funded by way of the SARS Section 12J Benefit or otherwise) within 6 months and that all dividends and distributions from the investment will be used to pay off any outstanding debt (after Withholding taxes have been paid to SARS). A final balloon payment is only due should a shortfall and outstanding balance on the loan still be due before the end of the 5 year investment period. Details of the Structured Loan is presented in a separate Loan Agreement entered into between each Investor and the NCR Registered Finance Provider
Estimated Annual Hotel Yields:
Targeted annual hotel yields of 7% per annum.
Estimated annual asset appreciation:
Targeted annual asset appreciation at 7% per annum. We furthermore believe that we can buy property at below historical values, being a "buyer's market", which will enable the fund to achieve its targeted 7% avg. appreciation in asset value over 5 years.
Additional Benefits to Investors:
Investors should also note that the Directors endeavour to take all the necessary steps to enable investors to exercise any of the three options above, but that such exit options are not guaranteed. Investors should further take note than on exiting a 12J Structure, Capital Gains Tax or Dividends Tax may apply (as the case may be), while the base cost of their investment will be deemed to be zero for Capital Gains Tax purposes. The Directors endeavour to consult with Investor Shareholders closer to the time, and present the most appropriate and cost and tax efficient Exit options and to work close with the Investor Shareholders to execute such options.
Should the investors choose option 3 above, no exit tax will apply, while fees will be reduced as per the PPM.
