The Joint Equity Scheme offers property investors an easy to use, ethical alternative, with higher annual and capital returns at lower risk, than the traditional buy-to-let method.
With property prices stalling (due in no small part to Buy-to-Let owners selling fast at lower than current market value to fix capital gains) the buy-to-let sector is at last showing its true colours – exploitation.
For years, buy-to-let owners, with greater buying power and available capital have competed against 1 st time buyers for entry level homes. Then they have rented the same properties back to the unsuccessful 1st time buyer at higher rents than the equivalent mortgage would be.
In this way, the buy-to-let landlord is stopping the younger generation from starting to build capital, and is, therefore, exploiting them. Brad Bamfield, the founder of Joint Equity says “This characteristic of exploitation has deterred many potential investors from investing in property.
An Ethical Alternative to Buy-to-Let
But now the Joint Equity Scheme allows ethical property investment where the occupier of the home and the investor share in the growth in value.”
It appears from recent political analysis that the UK population is just left of centre and the interest in the Joint Equity Scheme seems to bear this out.
The left wing ideal of helping others and the expense of yourself and the right wing ideal of helping yourself at the expense of others are both unacceptable.
But we see helping others while helping yourself as a win/win approach that is the UK ideal.
With the launch of Joint Equity home ownership partnership that is exactly what property investors can now do. With Joint Equity you do not make money at the expense of the occupier as you do with buy-to-let – now you make more money while at the same time helping the owner-partner to begin building their own capital.
Brad Bamfield says “from the feedback we have from our investors this higher return would be reason enough to leave the buy-to-let sector but when you can help others through your investments and earn more its is the very best of both worlds”.
