Offer for Investors:
Investors can purchase shares in approved New Zealand residential properties, receiving a proportional share of property income credited to their wallet every six months, as well as any capital gains when trading their shares. Each share carries a projected annual dividend of 3% from property income, paid semi-annually, and investors can withdraw or reinvest income into additional shares at any time. A secondary marketplace allows shares to be bought and sold freely, providing ongoing liquidity.
Offer for Fundraisers (Vendors):
- Property owners can sell all or part of their home on the Housies marketplace, with a fixed listing fee of 0.2% and a success fee of 1.84% upon completed selldown.
- Eligible properties must be new or near-new (less than 5 years old), freehold or unit title, and typically 3–5 bedroom houses or townhouses.
- Vendors can remain in the property as its Guardian after selling a portion, continuing to live in and manage the home while freeing up equity or paying down a mortgage.
- The platform supports a range of scenarios including equity release, mortgage relief, retirement cashflow, and property settlement during separation.
- Each property has a 60–90 day selldown window; if the property doesn’t fully sell, investors receive a full refund including any fees.
