Don’t invest unless you’re prepared to lose all the money you invest. This is a high-risk investment. Take 2 mins to learn more.

Risk Warning

Due to the potential for losses, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) considers this investment to be high risk.

What are the key risks?
1. You could lose all the money you invest
  • It's essential to bear in mind that investing in the property market comes with the risk of incurring losses, which could result in receiving a return on investment that is lower than the original investment amount.
2. You won’t get your money back quickly
  • The availability of buyers and sellers can affect the ease of selling your shares, and the sale price may be less than what you paid for them initially.
  • In the event of unfavourable circumstances, it may take a prolonged period of time to recover your investment in certain types of properties.
  • The payment of dividends is not assured and is dependent on the decision of the property-holding company's directors, who consider the property's financial condition. In the most extreme case, dividends may be halted.
3. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket
  • Putting all your money into a single platform or type of investment is risky. Spreading your money across different investments makes you less dependent on any one to do well. A good rule of thumb is not to invest more than 10% of your money in high-risk investments.
4. The value of your investment can be reduced
  • The value of your investment in property can be influenced by various market factors and specific risks, which are detailed in our Key Risks section. As your investment is tied to the underlying property value in your portfolio, it is subject to potential fluctuations in value, both upward and downward.
  • In some circumstances, properties may require extra funds, which may be raised through the issuance of new shares. If more shares are issued, the proportion of ownership in the property that you originally invested in will decrease. This may result in a reduction in the value of your investment, depending on the extent of future fundraising needed.
  • These new shares may have additional privileges that your shares do not have, or may be available at a lower price than what you initially paid for your shares. This could further diminish your chances of earning a return on your investment.
5. You are unlikely to be protected if something goes wrong
  • Protection from the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS), in relation to claims against failed regulated firms, does not cover poor investment performance. Try the FSCS investment protection checker.
  • Protection from the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) does not cover poor investment performance. If you have a complaint against an FCA-regulated platform, FOS may be able to consider it. Learn more about FOS protection.

Why Property?

Building long-term wealth on strong foundations

Property has a proven track record of generating resilient long-term returns for investors. Despite this, property investing can be as challenging as it is rewarding. Cahootz fixes this.

Capital appreciation

Long-term capital growth

As a physical asset with limited supply and growing population, property investing has historically seen consistent long-term growth with the average house price in London increasing by over 130% between 2005 and 2022 (compared to 47% for the FTSE 100)*. But whilst property generally sees less volatility than other asset classes (such as equity and fixed income), fluctuations do occur, so property should always be considered a long-term investment.

Income

Passive income

Due to consistent high demand for rental accommodation in the UK, particularly in city locations, property investing has the potential to provide regular long-term passive income from rent. Furthermore, rental prices are typically renewed every twelve months making this income stream a good hedge against inflation. In times of economic downturn, demand for rental properties tends to increase as people put off the choice of buying a home.

How it works
Diversification

Reduced portfolio risk

Buy-to-let property as an asset class, in some circumstances, can have a low correlation to other investments such as equities and fixed income. As such, buy-to-let property investing has a role to play in any well balanced, diversified investment portfolio.

Problem

The challenges of traditional property investment

Complexity

Investing in property can involve complicated legal and financial considerations as well as complex regulatory and tenancy management processes. Reliance on multiple third-parties without transparency can sometimes result in unexpected costs.

Time

Lengthy search, acquisition and sale processes can be very time consuming. Furthermore, even with a third-party property management agency in place, approving maintenance requests and negotiating contracts can require significant time commitments.

Accessibility

Buy-to-let property traditionally requires large deposits, mortgage debt, and purchase costs, which could put property out of reach for many investors. These costs may also reduce the extent to which investors are able to diversify across multiple properties and locations.
Solution

Fractional investing with Cahootz

Cahootz enables investors to buy fractions of high quality residential property. The ability to invest in smaller tranches not only allows you to own a greater number of properties overall, it also offers the ability to diversify across a wider variety of property types, locations and values. Furthermore, by taking care of all legal, financial and property management requirements with complete transparency, Cahootz offers many of the benefits of buy-to-let, with none of the challenges.
