We carefully select property development opportunities with high growth potential. Once identified, the property is acquired through a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) created specifically for that project.
Investors are invited to join the DFSIM through capital contributions, which are used directly for project costs. Funds are raised in tranches, aligning with project milestones to ensure efficient capital allocation.
Your investment is secured by a first charge on the property, held by a Security Trustee on behalf of all investors, providing prioritized claim over assets. Investor funds are held in an escrow account managed by an independent Escrow Agent, only released upon verification of completed work by an Independent Monitoring Surveyor.
DFSIM investors receive a fixed 8% annual return on their investment, as well as equity in the project, allowing them to share in any development profits. This structure combines predictable income with growth potential, making it ideal for risk-aware investors.
Upon project completion, the property is sold on the open market. Sales proceeds are used to return investor capital and distribute profits. With an anticipated 18-month timeline, this model offers a defined path to liquidity.
An SPV is created to own the property development project, and equity investors buy shares in this SPV, making them direct stakeholders in the project.
As a shareholder, you benefit from full participation in project decisions requiring investor consent. This includes control over major project activities, ensuring transparency and alignment with your investment interests.
As the project progresses and reaches completion, equity investors share in the profits based on their percentage of ownership. This allows investors to benefit from the financial success of the project, with returns tied directly to development outcomes.
Once the property is developed, it is sold on the open market. Profits from the sale are distributed to shareholders, providing a clear and timely exit from the investment.
In order to keep our finger on the pulse, the project management has to go through JaeVee's sister company, Hatch Project Management Ltd.
The project management fee forms part of the professional fee pot allocated towards each project's costs. Typically, a project management company is paid 2.5% of the construction contract sum with the payment spread out evenly across the construction programme. Therefore ensuring there’s always an allocation throughout for project management costs.
The professional fees, along with the construction cost and contingency fund are usually covered by the senior debt lender’s facility.
They form part of the overall project cost and are borne by the SPV. The professional fee fund is displayed within the feasibility of each project, prior to you choosing to invest.
In some of our developments, we act as the Employers Agent for all the design and build construction contracts entered into. Sometimes we appoint third party Employers Agents to act, ultimately it depends on the location of the project. The Employers Agent is a key role as it reviews the main contractors payment applications on a monthly basis; in order to agree upon valuations and issue payment instructions.
The Employers Agent acts on behalf of the client, which will be the SPV, as the contract administrator reviewing interim drawdowns, monitoring and reporting on the principal contractor throughout the programme to protect the cost position of the SPV.
Typically, an Employers Agent is paid 1% of the contract sum, with the payment spread out evenly across the construction programme. Therefore, just like project management fees, ensuring there’s always an allocation throughout for employers agent costs.
It’s covered within the professional fees allocation offered by the senior debt lender’s facility, along with the construction cost and contingency fund.
We retain 50%-60% of the net capital growth or rental income. It is paid to us either when the project successfully exits or during (if rented). As each project is held in a separate SPV, corporation tax will be payable which is taken into account and deducted from all forecasted returns to equity investors.
Our property development cost covers the cost of raising funds, extensive due diligence, deal structuring, compliance, corporate governance, and marketing. The cost is added to the total acquisition costs and is borne as an SPV cost. It forms part of the equity and mezzanine raised on day one.
As we employ an inhouse development origination team, it’s important we cover the property sourcing cost to ensure we continually bring to you the most profitable and risk averse property development investment opportunities. This cost is added to the total acquisition costs and is borne as an SPV cost. It forms part of the equity and mezzanine raised on day one.
Whilst not a direct cost JaeVee incurs, our model works by providing main contractors with an incentive they don’t typically get offered. Whilst it’s common practise for main contractors to build for market rates, our incentive of offering a cut of the development profits - should they deliver on time and to budget - helps to ensure they prioritise delivering our projects with them.
The main contractor will earn up to 10% of the development profits should they deliver on time and to budget. Their 10% bonus comes from JaeVee’s side therefore not impacting on the 40% equity investors are entitled to.
Should the main contractor not perform, as they are paid on reimbursement terms, we are able to reassign the contract to another contractor which is why it’s vitally important we always budget building to market construction rates.
Our model is exit-orientated, meaning the main contractor has to achieve the exit in order for them to earn 10% of the profits generated.
All our projected returns are shown net of fees and corporation tax so your targeted returns will have already taken these costs into account.
As with all property developments, there may be unforeseen costs but we do our best to mitigate these, with the utilisation of the boost fund. The boost fund is 1% of the purchase price of the property which is held within the SPV bank account. The contingency fund, offered by the senior debt lender, is also there to assist with any unforeseen costs. Both this and the boost fund are already taken into account as part of the developments costs thus not affecting the projected returns to you.
