Rental Pools enable a simple but radical new funding option through Unitisation

Units – undated credits redeemable in payment for property occupation

16/06/10 21

Funding – we create and sell Units in Rental Pools from occupiers of completed houses

Units are sold to Investors at a discount to the rental value

16/06/10 27

Page 28: Community land partnership may 2011

The discount determines the return

Debt: £300k pa will fund <£4m debt over 20 years at 5% compound interest

16/06/10 29

Page 30: Community land partnership may 2011

Units - £300k (initially) funds £5m @ 6% £10m at 3%; £20m @ 1.5% (index-linked)

Investors effectively lend to the land – not to the owner

16/06/10 31

Page 32: Community land partnership may 2011

Occupiers may invest simply by paying rent in advance.....

16/06/10 32

Page 33: Community land partnership may 2011

...and may receive 'Sweat Equity' Units if they maintain the property themselves

16/06/10 33

Page 34: Community land partnership may 2011

Surprise! No compound interest + no principal repayment = drastic cut in funding costs

16/06/10 34

Page 35: Community land partnership may 2011

A Community Partnership is not an Organisation

16/06/10 35

Page 36: Community land partnership may 2011

It does not own anything, do anything, employ anyone, or contract with anyone

16/06/10 36

Page 37: Community land partnership may 2011

It is simply a framework agreement within which stakeholders self organise

16/06/10 37

Page 38: Community land partnership may 2011

Example – Bruce Road, Tower Hamlets

16/06/10 38

10 short - life houses 4 empty

Page 39: Community land partnership may 2011

Development – council invests existing land and buildings

Page 40: Community land partnership may 2011

Co-operative refurbishes properties with professional oversight by CDS

16/06/10 40

Page 41: Community land partnership may 2011

A Pool of £75k pa index-linked affordable rentals is thereby created

16/06/10 41

Page 42: Community land partnership may 2011

£15k pa index-linked is allocated to maintenance & depreciation

16/06/10 42

Page 43: Community land partnership may 2011

Leaving £60k pa available for financing and funding

16/06/10 43

Page 44: Community land partnership may 2011

This would fund only £800k in 20 yr debt at 5% pa.......

16/06/10 44

Page 45: Community land partnership may 2011

.....but it will fund up to £2m of Units with a 3% index-linked return

16/06/10 45

Page 46: Community land partnership may 2011

The Co-operative members participate collectively and individually

16/06/10 46

Page 47: Community land partnership may 2011

LBTH Council may sell Units before, during or after development

16/06/10 47

Page 48: Community land partnership may 2011

Returns are commensurate with risk

16/06/10 48

Page 49: Community land partnership may 2011

But always better than selling to a debt-financed purchaser
