HOW IT WORKS

Investing in real estate is our passion. Our team is here to get the most out of your investment

Step 1

Investing in Pacific Sands Funds has been designed to be a straightforward and easy process for investors. The minimum investment is typically $50,000, which will buy you a share in the specific Real Estate Fund. The portfolios are built to include exposure within submarkets that have appreciation cash-flow.

Step 2

After the Fund has an equity raise and closes, it typically takes 12 months for Pacific Sands to increase the rents and perform capital improvements. The team calls this “the heavy-lift” as a significant amount of work goes into the properties.

Step 3

After the initial 12-months, a distribution schedule typically begins in which the investors receive a 6% annual Preferred Return based on their equity invested. After the first 6% is paid to the investors, the fund managers receive a 2% catch-up and the additional cash flow is split by the investors and fund managers.

Step 4

When the properties are eventually liquated/sold, off the investors get paid again based on a split. Thus, in essence the investors get paid in two ways through the fund.

1) During the hold-period after the first 12 months passes via distributions. This is the 6% Preferred Return, which most times can actually be up to a 8-9% annual return.

2) Upon the sale of the properties after the hold period.

However in many cases the Investor IRR has ranged from 28% to 35%.
