ISSUER

**The key numbers to explain how the Issuer has made this estimate are available within your addy account. Investments in this property are open to all residents in Canada above the age of the majority, excluding Quebec. Qualified members can invest from $1.

The Plan

SMRET II will invest into the Fund. The Fund will aim to invest in a diversified portfolio of 3 to 5 real estate development projects and/or properties through ownership in development properties which will be sold as condo or purpose-built rental.

Investments may be initiated at various stages of development (Acquisition, Development, Construction) and must meet the investment criteria below. Some project-level criteria include:

  • Asset Type: A focus on residential real estate at various stages of the development lifecycle: primarily mid-rise to high-rise (high density) condo or purpose-built rental.
  • Geography: Targeting areas primarily in Southern Ontario, with a specific focus in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA) which exhibit strong fundamentals, including population growth and supportive land-use policies.
  • Investment Size: Target Equity investments of $10.0M+. Developer Partner generally contributing 10%-15% of required equity financing.
  • Est. Time Horizon: 5 years from fund closing – aim to return capital as projects are completed. 
  • Targeted Return: The Issuer’s targeted underwritten return for equity investments is 15% annual non-compounding based on numerous factors including location, term, and size.

ways to Payout

  • Fund returns (distributions) from underlying investments in development projects and properties (equity) will be returned as the ‘Exit Strategies’ for each are realized, which will be closer to the end of the Fund Term which is targeted within a 4-5+ year time horizon. The term begins after the Issuer has raised the capital and closed the fund.
  • The Fund Term is 4-5+ Years (after the Issuer has raised the capital to close the fund), and ultimately depends on the underlying projects. Scott McGillivray Real Estate Trust II’s objective is to invest the fund capital in opportunities that meet the fund mandate from a strategy and risk/return perspective, but also the Fund Term set. This means that the Exit Strategies for each asset will be assessed with this framework/constraints in mind. Development projects tend to be somewhat fluid, so the aim is to remain flexible while always keeping the best interest of investors core to the Issuers strategy.
  • The Fund & SMRET II do not pay monthly or annual distributions, and have a target total return of 15% per annum (non-compounding).
