Hear from our investors(iv)

HOPE has a good, solid return over a ten-year period, and I think the whole thesis around providing housing for essential workers and front-line workers is really important - they give a lot to our community, and to be able to provide a solution to their housing needs is pretty special.

Nicola ParamorParamor Family Foundation

HOPE Housing is an investment that not only offers financial returns but also has altruistic elements. HOPE appealed to me because it helps people achieve something that might otherwise be out of their reach.

Tim NortonEntrepreneur and Property Investor

VFFF views HOPE Housing as a welcome addition to the impact investment portfolio and values the innovative yet considered approach they have taken in the development oft heir model. The impact of the model on the lives of essential workers participating in the scheme is dear.

How it works

The HOPE Fund gives investors a new way to access the stable and solid returns of the Australian residential property market, while enabling home ownership.

We achieve this through our unique shared equity model, which puts home ownership within reach of our dedicated essential workforce community and simplifies and de-risks property investment for investors.

Benefits of investing

No land tax icon

No upfront and ongoing property investment expenses

This investment does not incur stamp duty, rates, strata and maintenance costs for the investor.

Returns for investors icon

Vetted properties and homeowners

The Fund sets tight parameters on assets and homeowner selection to meet return targets.

Hope Together Icon

Hassle free

No tenancy management responsibilities – our homes are owner occupied.

Portfolio diversification icon

Scaled access to residential property

Unitised exposure allows investment in the Fund’s diverse property portfolio, rather than being tied to a single property, as may be the case through a direct investment.

Benefits for homeowners

Low deposit

Homeowners can enter the scheme with a minimum of 2.5% deposit.

Manageable mortgage

HOPE and Police Bank ensure mortgage servicing is within 30% of household income when essential workers enter the scheme.

Close to work

Homes are located within 30 minutes commute of an essential worker’s workplace, reducing commute times and stabilising workforces in critical urban regions.

How to invest

To be a sophisticated investor in Australia, you must meet one of the following requirements:

  1. Have net assets of more than A$2,500,000
  2. Have income of at least A$250,000 per annum over the last two financial years
  3. Able and willing to invest $500,000 or more into this opportunity
  • Review Fund Disclosure documents.

Investors apply online for units in the fund.

Funds are only deployed into assets that are:

  1. Vetted by HOPE’s investment committee, with purchase caps set.
  2. Owned and occupied by essential workers who have been vetted by Police Bank, for the purposes of acquiring and servicing a mortgage on their 50-70% share in the property.

Homeowners progressively purchase additional equity in the property at the prevailing market rate, stepping into full ownership over time. They can use a combination of savings (or the like) and mortgage top-ups in order to facilitate equity buybacks.

Equity buybacks or full sale events generate cash distributions to investors.
