Two Summers ~ No Winters

The new UPS Feature Article Series: Helping to make the hard work put in by all UPS members blossom into a genuinely unique way of life. The aim is to assist all UPS members who are considering a change of lifestyle (especially one that reduces the risk of Coronavirus), we have tried and tested ways of achieving these styles of life. Specifically to improve quality of life. During these stressful times when folk are under voluntary medical-house-arrest, why stay in a small flat when you can choose 30 acres of private island and a significant amount of sunshine, plus hundreds of hours extra daylight each year. CLICK on the photo of the private island above to read about how UPS members can enjoy TWO SUMMERS AND NO WINTERS.

Unique Property & Argyll Group Private Equity

What’s The Difference? Recent projects and buildings bought by ourselves, friends and colleagues have seen our Unique Property Syndicate members and the team from our Argyll Group Private Equity catch sight of the work that each entity completes. Especially as recent job-creation initiatives have seen the likelihood of both organisations establishing 32 new jobs this year. All managed, whist the dire Covid19 is causing so many job losses. It has given our friends and colleagues much comfort to see: 131 new jobs being created over the past 22 years. This job-creation and High Street regeneration is repeatable and scalable. So no matter where you live in the UK or USA, we have managed to renovate buildings in both countries and create many jobs and are keen to help you do likelwise. Please click on the link above to read more about the two main entities. Best Wishes, UPS-HQ.

Maybe worth your seeing how Bond can help you and all of us extinguish what has historically been a SPECTRE of a problem when it comes to making sure UPS funds get paid to UPS members at the speed of an Aston Martin DB5. Click the photo-box above for more information. Please remember, stay safe during the pandemic. That means no licking your goldfish nor letting the cat sneeze on your pizza.

Financial Health Risk Advisory: Asset-Backed Projects.

As at 4th May 2024 we are in our 25th year of Unique Property Syndicates and apart from the Covid19 pandemic, we are still in good shape. Plus a lot of buildings have been renovated and brought back to life. There are a total of 203 new jobs between Unique Property Bulletin + Unique Property Syndicates + Argyll Group. The two main styles of buildings being High Streets brought back to life and unusual property. The new community-owned power station idea is well progressed and looks to be a THIRD strand in what we do. Fortunately, out long-standing policy of BANNING any MORTGAGE on any of our buildings has saved our asset-backed projects from being harmed in the way many building owners were during the lockdown. A public limited company (plc) exit route is still being considered. But this does not quite “fit” with the way we manage each project. The trial of a new CIC Community charity building buyout is also being tested. But this is a challenge as we struggle when the SURPLUS funds are too big. The original purpose was to bring closed-down buildings back to life on a not-for-profit basis. In a strange way the big surpluses have worked when we apply the “sole or main residence” principle. Buy it looks like we may need to go public (plc), if the surpluses persist. IMPORTANT ADVISORY… Property club ventures carry some degree of risk. Past performance should not be taken as a guarantee of future performance. Whilst we ensure that NO debt NOR mortgage is needed for any project, each has a solid asset foundation/backing, such is the nature of these unique property syndicates that members should consider independent financial advice before joining or continuing membership. The price of assets can go down as well as up. A significant proportion of these property club ventures are illiquid and consideration should be given that some may be medium to long term as well as short term holdings.

IMPORTANT – Future Unique Property Syndicates & Property Clubs

With effect from 24th January 2013 (Commencement Order: http://tinyurl.com/krndhl6), all unique property-clubs shall be run so that they comply fully with the British Financial Service Act 2012 and related legislation unless an exemption applies. Smaller property-club syndicates with between 4 and 25 members may, subject to the agreement of those taking part, consider "Sophisticated Investor" protocols exempting certain FCA requirements. Larger property-club syndicates will require to make stringent efforts to ensure compliance with the Financial Conduct Authority Handbook and rules/statutes governing property-clubs. The formats will usually be one of the following: (i) Financial Conduct Authority registered and compliant entities operated as part of an FCA approved crowdfunder platform project, or: (ii) via Financial Conduct Authority PERG exempted protocols; (iii) Occasionally a "high-net-worth", or "sophisticated investor" funded property-club project may be undertaken; (iv) On one past occasion a public limited company (plc) was established as a vehicle for wider participation when membership looked to exceed general advisory guidelines on property-clubs: UNIQUE PROPERTY PLC. This entity ran it's course. However, it was a very expensive way of progressing our property-clubs as the laws surrounding public limited companies carry a significant add-on cost in terms of plc standard accountancy and legal advice ; (v) Direct FCA registered entities. Future unique property-syndicate/property-club projects may be structured along any one of the above mentioned protocols from (i) to (v). In addition future unique property-clubs may be established along limited liability partnership protocols (LLPs). For more comprehensive details on the who, what, why, where and when of unique property-clubs and syndicates, please take the time to read the content of this website. Thank you. Please note, the detail and information contained in this website is NOT in and of itself an invitation to subscribe for shares, NOR is the content here intended as a request for people to invest in a unique property project. If in doubt, please take advice from your accountant, bank manager or appropriately authorised financial adviser. MEMBERS SHOULD READ THE STATUTORY FINANCIAL GUIDELINES, TERMS & CONDITIONS AND FINANCIAL HEALTH WARNINGS PROVIDED WITHIN THIS WEBSITE AT THE MATERIAL SECTIONS. From 9th March 2017, the rebooted unique property syndicate projects provide a SELF-CERTIFICATION facility for members to fulfill requirements on Anti-Money Laundering legislation ID to ensure we do not fall foul of the solicitor-client-account-as-banker rules and related legislation. Unique Property clubs and syndicates prefer the ROYAL MAIL ID VERIFICATION facility as this is the most efficient available to satisfy the rules that apply to property-clubs. Further information at: https://www.royalmail.com/personal/identity-verification . THE VOLUNTEERS AT UNIQUE PROPERTY SYNDICATES AND CLUBS RECEIVE NO FEE NOR REMUNERATION. However, as the property-club projects and membership numbers grow, there is a risk of volunteer-burnout. So we will be establishing an asset backed annuity producing entity to pay for editorial + administrative + IT staff. Initially on a part time basis, and then if circumstances require and funds permit, this shall go to full-time employees. Please note, with effect from 9th March 2017 (UPS21) and until further notice, the Unique Property Syndicates shall be operating an "Angels' Share" policy to ensure prudent reserves are set aside for forthcoming payment of compliance and staff costs, together with general syndicate administration such as office, heat, light, telephone, postage, broadband and internet website hosting + maintenance etc. All property club-members are requested to read the appropriate "Angels' Share" documentation and sign/return this to UPS HQ, along with the Memorandum of Agreement (MAPU form) for club members and other related documents.
