PROPFUND GERMANY, THE IDEA IS SIMPLE… Following the success of “Income Generating Fund 1” in 2011, Propfund Germany is continuing to take advantage of global economic conditions by acquiring high-yielding, tenanted residential property at lowprices. “The idea behind Propfund is very simple”, says David Healy, Marketing Director. “Where an individual could purchase one apartment in Germany for €140,000 with a rental yield of 5.5% and with a 60% mortgage, Propfund Germany would bring all these investors together to purchase the entire building resulting in the same apartment being purchased for €100,000 with a rental yield of 8% with an 80% mortgage. With this model our investors make a lot more money with little or no involvement compared to investing privately themselves.” Propfund Germany’s Income Generating Fund 2 is currently inviting up to 200 individual investors to share in the returns of approximately 500 properties, benefitting from economies of scale through buying property portfolios in Berlin and neighbouring cities. Propfund Germany has put together a tailored fund that can source and quickly acquire smaller high yielding portfolios delivering greater value
INCOME GENERATING FUND 2
to its investors. Either through a SIPP or as a cash investor, there is an opportunity to share in a highly profitable self-financing portfolio of up to 500 properties worth over €30,000,000. An investment spread across so many different properties minimises investor exposure to the performance of an individual property thus significantly reducing the overall risk. An investment into Propfund Germany starts from €30,000. Returns from the fund will be paid to investors each year as an annual dividend payment. As an investor in Propfund Germany you will benefit from a forecasted dividend of 7-10% per year. Over a period of 10 years, investors can expect to earn up to 170% return over and above their initial investment. This return is quite simply achieved through the renting out and resale of the properties within the portfolio.

Returns paid to investors yearly forecast 7%-10% PER ANNUM.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY The already successful strategy is based upon acquiring off-market small to medium sized residential portfolios of, on average, 30 properties in one building. Each fund is forecast to generate a minimum of a 7% dividend for investors each year including strong prospects of capital growth. Annual dividends are generated from surplus rent, leftover after all operation and finance costs. Propfund does not rely on capital appreciation and speculation, but generates returns using surplus rents generated from the strong rental market in Germany. The acquisitions are made using a combination of private investment from International investors, SIPPs and bank financing from a mixture of German banks including HypoVereinsbank, Commerzbank and DKB. Propfund Germany is governed by strict acquisition criteria, each portfolio has to be approved by more than 50% of the investors before it can be acquired. The properties
PAGE 6
that are acquired are always of high build quality with no renovation requirements. Before a portfolio can be presented to investors that portfolio must deliver rental yields of above 7%+ and the occupancy has to be a minimum of 80%. Properties are valued as a multiple of the annual rental yield, typically on the open market an investor would purchase a similar individual property for more than 17.5 times the rental yield. Propfund Germany only builds portfolios if the average price is below 13 times the rental yield. This strategy ensures strong rental performance from the outset and in-built discount of at least 25% for its investors. Propfund Germany is raising approximately €10,000,000 from private investors with a further €20,000,000 borrowed from German banks on pre-approved and fixed terms. The interest rate of the mortgage is fixed, meaning there is no fluctuation throughout the term of the investment, and capital repayments
will be made throughout that term reducing the overall borrowing. At no point will investors be liable for this mortgage debt as these loans are on a ‘non-recourse’ basis to investors. Propfund Germany will manage the property portfolios for a period of 10 years, focusing on increasing the rental income and value of the portfolios. Upon reaching the 10 year exit point the intention of the fund is to sell all the properties either individually or as small portfolios, pay off the balance of the mortgage loans and distribute the profits between the investors. Propfund Germany shares in the profits at the end of the term and so are fully aligned with investor interests. Returns paid to investors yearly – forecast 7%-10% per annum.

A Self-Invested Personal Pension (SIPP) is the name given to the type of government approved personal pension scheme, which allows individuals to make their own investment decisions from the full range of approved investments. Arguably the most prominent pension success story in recent years has been the popularity of the SIPP. This is a personal pension in which the person investing for retirement decides where their pension fund is invested. Propfund has been SIPP approved by multiple pension trustees in Ireland, the UK and the UAE.

together with bank financing from German banks to purchase the properties. The portfolio is currently generating a rental income of over €1,1mil per annum which is a rental yield of 9.3%. By investing an average of €50,000 and pooling the funds together, each investor is getting a much higher return than if they were to invest in a single property.

“My acquisition team has very strict criteria when sourcing suitable portfolios. This ensures the fund can maintain its forecasted annual dividend payments and achieve its return on investment at the end of the term. The majority of the projects we purchase are off-market and sourced through banks, auctions and specialist real estate companies.” says Rouven Zinke, Acquisitions Manager. “Most of the projects are fully rented, in excellent condition and have strong prospects for growth over the next few years. We are very excited about 2012 as there are still some great offers on the market, interest rates are lowering and a lot more private equity is now becoming available”.

PROPERTY CRITERIA Propfund Germany 2 will acquire over 500 properties in prime locations in Berlin and other cities of interest. The acquisition team have very strict criteria when sourcing properties for their residential property fund. In order to generate a minimum of 170% return on equity for their investors, only high yielding properties will be purchased into the fund. Prime Residential Buildings - Fund Criteria High rental income Low purchase prices
Minimum 7% €1,000/sqm
Tenant occupancy Minimum
80%
Bank financing Up to 85%
LTV
Annual Profit Minimum
7%
Rental Yields – average 7.5% Only blocks of apartments generating an average of 7.5% rental yield at the time of purchase will be acquired into the fund. This ensures the fund only acquires high income portfolios with a proven tenancy track record. Purchase Prices – Maximum 13 times the annual rent Institutional investors will calculate the purchase price of a property as a multiple of the rental yield. This means German property prices are generally much lower than other cities in Europe. Propfund will pay an average of 13 times the annual rent which is known as the “purchase factor”. By applying this low purchase factor, investors can be assured that all the properties in Propfund have been purchased at the lowest possible price ensuring maximum potential for capital appreciation.
INCOME GENERATING FUND 2
Occupancy – Min 80% rented at time of purchase Propfund does not acquire development sites or projects in need of renovation. They only acquire apartments blocks which are already 80% occupied with tenants, avoiding the risk of vacancy rates or additional capital investment for renovations. All tenant contracts are reviewed prior to purchase ensuring that the monthly rental income is secure and will continue to generate a minimum of a 7.5% rental yield. Bank Financing – Up to 85% LTV This portfolio will be financed from €10,000,000 in private equity and a minimum of €20,000,000 in bank financing. Banks value property based on a multiple of the rental income. Because Propfund is committed to purchasing only very high yielding property we have agreed preferential bank financing terms with leading German financial institutions.
Specific terms include: • 30 year term – capital and interest repayments • Interest fixed for 10 years (term of the fund) • Non-recourse to investors • Up to 85% loan to value Profit on Equity – Minimum 7% Each building in the fund will generate a minimum cash surplus of between 7% – 10% pa. This will ensure that the fund pays annual dividends to investors as outlined in our forecasts. Cash surplus is calculated by deducting all the annual expenses for the mortgage, property management and maintenance and the cost of managing the fund from the rental income. Due to the high income that the portfolio generates from the rental income each year, there will always be a cash surplus which will be distributed to investors as a percentage of the equity they invested.

GERMANY
A VERY DIFFERENT RESIDENTIAL MARKET Unlike the British, the German population are not infatuated with home ownership; in fact Germany has the highest proportion of rented property in Europe averaging 57.4%, in Berlin this leaps to an average of 84%, nearly three times the average in the UK. Furthermore the German market is characterised by long rental terms of typically 10-15 years compared with less than 3 years in the UK. Berlin is currently seeing a net increase of residents with many governmental and large corporations relocating staff there from other German cities; this influx is driving rental demand and rents upwards.
RENTAL YIELDS ARE RISING Berlin is one of the fastest growing capital cities in Europe, however it still has one of the lowest prices for rental, averaging €5.71 per square metre. Already attracting substantial inward investment, the rents in Berlin are widely expected to increase significantly over the next 10 years. Bringing Berlin more in line with the rest of Germany, this alignment in the market signifies a real buying opportunity with strong fundamentals supporting the rise in rental yields.
