Accredited investors registered in the Straits Trading Shareholders' Club can invest in these fractional investment products through preference shares. As preference shareholders, they will enjoy potential capital appreciation of the underlying properties and any dividends due, which will be paid semi-annually over the investment period of five years.

At the end of the five years, preference shareholders may enjoy returns which reflect a share in the potential appreciation in value of the underlying property via a special payout. The dividends and special payout are non-guaranteed and subject to performance.

During the investment period, the underlying properties continue to be owned by the existing owners while investors enjoy a share of the economic returns.
