Investments in the Real Estate Sector.
We are a real estate investment trust fund group under Retro Capital As, located at 668 HOUGANG AVENUE 8 Singapore. We embrace the creativity, flexibility, innovation and sense of ownership our founders instilled in our corporate culture, inspiring us to approach each day with passion and enthusiasm. We benefits from an experienced management team that has delivered strong performance through all economic cycles, and an infrastructure that enables consistent execution at high levels across all aspects of the business.
We provide portfolio exposure to real estate without the traditional real estate transactions to our investors, by using the investments of our investors to purchase and operate income properties, and in turn give in assured weekly profits. We also afford our investors entry into nonresidential investments, such as malls or office buildings, that are generally not feasible for individual investors to purchase directly.
Our top priorities are to create satisfied members and investors, assume our eco responsibility, effectively manage assets, be the best in homes and banking and develop cities and communities. We seek out, advance and reward investors who embrace our commitment to quality and the highest standards of excellence in all we do, both individually and as a company. We are committed to delivering superior results for our investors, communities, and shareholders. The Retro Capital real estate trust fund group engages in the development and sale of homes and properties, banking and financial solutions, property management, real estate brokerage and other forms of service production in the housing and property sector.
How We Grow Our Earnings
The two primary ways we increase our earnings (and resulting dividend payments) are:
1. Increasing the size of our real estate portfolio
- We are able to generate increasing cash flow from our new property acquisitions based on the “investment spread”, or difference, we achieve between the “cost of capital” we use to acquire the property and the return, or “lease yield”, we receive from the property we buy
- Lease Yield – Cost of Capital = Investment Spread
- The “lease yield” is the return we receive based on rental payments relative to the price we paid for the property
- The “cost of capital” is the weighted-average cost of issuing a combination of common stock, preferred stock, and debt based on our desired leverage ratios
2. Regularly increasing rent on our existing leases
- Fixed rent increases
- Variable rent increases (e.g. percentage rent based on a percentage of the clients gross sales)
- Hybrid fixed/variable rent increases (e.g. increases capped by CPI)
What kind of properties do we own?
- We primarily own properties that are leased to retail businesses. Examples include convenience stores, health and fitness facilities, movie theaters, and drug stores
- We also own non-retail properties, with industrial buildings comprising 12% of revenue
- Our properties are typically freestanding structures (not attached to another building as in a shopping mall or strip center)
How do we find properties to purchase?
We maintain relationships with clients, real estate developers, owners, brokers, private equity firms and investment balnks to uncover single-asset and portfolio acquisition opportunities
How do we fund property purchases?
Our deep and diverse financing sources accross all investment groups provide us with unique competitive advantages. We have a range of financing alternatives such as traditional repo, warehouse lines, financing through our own broker deal, and also financing through the deposit of our Investor. We ultimately seek to permanently fund acquisitions by issuing common stock, preferred stock or long-term bonds.
Singapore's real estate market is a safe long-term bet due to limited land supply and continuously high foreign demand.
