The benefits and limitations of investing through Investment Partnerships
► Joint Equity Investment Partnerships -
With Joint Equity Investment Partnerships (JEIPs) there are significant benefits and advantages over Buy to Let and other ethical investment routes.
There are a number of specific advantages when you invest with a JEIP that you do not have as an individual Joint Equity investor.
And in fairness there two drawbacks.
► The benefits and advantages
Lower risk investment. Instead of owning 50% of one property in one location if you have 5 equal partners, for example, you own 1/6 of 6 properties. That means you can spread the investments around the country and across different property types.
You are not alone. You have your Partners to discuss investment options with.
You can be hands off. Any property investment requires a degree of hassle. Of course Joint Equity is much less than any other option but you still need to sign the occasional form. With a JEIP you have a Managing Partner who will take on all the day to day management.
Investing can be fun. There can be a social aspect to a JEIP as well as just profits. The JEIP may meet regularly to discuss investments and that can involve dinner as some of our JEIPs already do.
► The limitations and disadvantages
You have Partners. They may not always want to do exactly what you want to do, so compromise is often necessary. The JEIP Partners Agreement sets out what happens if you disagree with other Partners.
Your cash is tied up. Exiting from a JEIP is slower than other forms of investment vehicle. It is not as liquid as some other investments but we are s comparable with other ways of investing in property.
The JEIP Partners Agreement sets out how you can exit your investment.
In any investment opportunities there are benefits and advantages and some limitations and disadvantages.
Many business when promoting their services and products gloss over the downsides or even ignore them altogether hoping the customer will not notice.
You will already know that the Joint Equity range of services and products are very ethical and socially responsible investing in design, structure and delivery .
And of course Joint Equity , the business and our people, applies ethical principles in everything we do.
So this page covers the benefits and the problems.
