Maat Group Director Discusses Opportunities in Commercial Property Investment

Director of Albany-based Investment Experts “Maat Group” Neil Tuffin recently discussed some key aspects of commercial property investment. Neil cast some light on its many opportunities and excellent benefits.

The current investment world is wrought with uncertainties. The share market can be volatile, and the bond market exposed to complexities and a variety of differing bonds. Bank fund deposits are currently reaping low interest rates, and commodities experience variability in returns. Property investment, however, presents several different options.

Maat offer private equity opportunities to enable investors to purchase large properties. This gives added convenience to investors as Maat is responsible for financial control and management once the property is purchased.

Property syndicates suit investors who seek regular on-going cash returns, with the prospect of capital growth over time. Shares are offered in $50,000 parcels, and investors may purchase one or more to suit their liking.

Maat Group provide peace of mind for their investors through the Product Disclosure Statement, which is in compliance with the Financial Markets Conduct Act of 2013. The PDS includes relevant information crucial to investing in large properties, including financial forecasts, lease details, risks disclosures, property details, director disclosures and application forms.

The Maat directors take great responsibility in preparing the PDS, gathering essential input from reputable legal and accounting practices. Independent specialist reports may also be commissioned where necessary.

Management of the property is properly documented in a Management and Ownership Deed. This document details investor rights and manager responsibilities, ensuring that all bases are covered whenever possible. Adequate cash reserves will also be available to protect against potential major risks.

As a qualified accountant and authorised financial adviser, Neil’s experience has proven invaluable in the success of the Maat Group and the steady expansion of their managed property portfolio. The three directors at Maat are all qualified accountants, with two managing their own practices in Taranaki.
