Fund Overview
What
The Australian Securities Property Fund is a unique Fund in which we package specific real estate in Sub-schemes to suit investors who want to own property, receive a regular income, have control with other investors over the Sub-scheme property and benefit from potential capital growth within a regulated managed investment scheme.
How it works
An Investor must become a Member of the Fund before they can invest in a Sub-scheme. Members invest in a specific Sub-scheme within the Fund. Each Sub-scheme holds a single property and operates independently of other Sub-schemes in the Fund. It will have its own associated risks and rewards, providing Members greater clarity and control over how, when and where their investment capital is spent.
Investor ownership is based on their contribution amount in proportion to the total amount invested in the Sub-scheme as tenants in common. The Fund holds the title on trust for the Members in the Sub-scheme. Rental income is distributed monthly in arrears to the Members in the Sub-scheme.
Properties are held for the medium to long term (five to seven-year period) before selling to realise maximum capital growth. Australian Securities manage the Fund’s assets throughout the investment term.
The investment minimum is $100,000.
Why invest in this Fund?
The Australian Securities Property Fund is suitable for investors who want to own property, receive a regular income, and benefit from potential capital growth within a regulated managed investment scheme.
Non-Pooled
The Australian Securities Property Fund is not a pooled fund. You invest in one property (you choose) with a controlling proprietary over the property. All investment properties in the Fund operate independently of one another as Sub-schemes of the Fund, providing investors greater transparency and security of investment, unlike a pooled fund where poor performing investments can impact other investors’ contributions.
Greater choice
The Australian Securities Property Fund offers Members a range of investment options as it comprises multiple independent Sub-schemes. A minimum of $100,000 is required to invest. Investors are able to invest in one or more Sub-schemes and spread their investment over a broad range of property categories, including commercial, retail and industrial properties.
Monthly Returns
Members benefit from monthly leasing income, with indexed linked leasing agreements reviewed annually, and a potential capital gain when their investment property is sold.
Members can keep abreast of property portfolio yields via the Wealth Management portal and regular annual and biannual reporting.
Our team is available to answer any additional questions you may have.
Investor Suitability
The Fund is suitable for superannuation funds, retirees and pension funds, individuals, trustees, institutions, and not-for-profit organisations such as charities and foundations seeking a secure, conservative, and profitable medium to long-term investment strategy.

What are the benefits of investing in the Australian Securities Property Fund?
Investors who want to own commercial property now can, with other like-minded investors, by investing in a single property packaged in a Sub-scheme. Members have greater control over the property and receive regular leasing income, and can realise the potential for capital growth on the final sale at the end of the investment Term.
What is the difference between the Australian Securities Property Fund and other Property Funds?
The Fund is unique, as investments are non -pooled with every property in the Fund operating as an individual Sub-scheme of the Fund, allowing investors greater control, transparency and direct ownership within a regulated managed investment scheme.
Am I investing in a pooled property Fund?
No. Every property you invest in is an individually registered Sub-scheme that operates independently of all other property Sub-schemes within the Fund.
Do I become the owner of the property I have invested in?
Yes. The property is held in trust by the Fund manager. As the owner, only you and the other Members invested in that Sub-scheme receive the rewards in terms of leasing income and a share in any capital gain on the final sale at the end of the investment term.
Can I invest in more than one property in the Fund?
Yes. Once you are a Member, you can invest in multiple Sub-schemes and create a diversified property portfolio.
Can I sell my share in a Sub-scheme, and when?
Yes. After the investment term (usually a five to seven year investment period). An Owner may sell their interest to another Member at the end of the financial year following the fifth anniversary of the start of a Sub-scheme if that option is included for the Sub-scheme on entry.
Is my name on the title?
Australian Securities holds the Sub-scheme property on trust for one or more Members (owners) identified in the Deed for their relevant contributions to the relevant Sub-scheme.
What documentation will I receive to help me make an informed choice about a particular Property Sub-scheme for investment?
Detailed reports are provided, including valuation, market insights, and potential growth forecasts in the property market. A ‘Property Description Certificate’ is also issued as Part 2 of the PDS (Supplementary PDS) to Members to identify the Sub-scheme property and its attributes for approval.
What Property types does the Fund invest in?
The Fund (via each Sub-scheme) invests predominantly in Commercial, Retail, Industrial and Residential properties. The Fund manager investigates potential growth areas by undertaking an in-depth industry analysis before providing suitable investment opportunities to Members for approval.
Who does the Property Fund cater for?
The Fund caters for private investors, self-managed superannuation funds, financial institutions and anyone seeking immediate income and the potential for future capital return.
