The property team can add value through restructuring lease renewals; managing site redevelopments; organising the purchase of property into an investment trust structure; or acquiring properties to hold or lease. Single property trusts Single property trust investments present an opportunity to earn long term income with the potential of capital gains. A property is identified by Trilogy Funds property team that has the potential to provide long term cash flow to investors; and the possibility of capital gains upon sale of the asset. The property is acquired by a trust and normally geared below 50 percent. It is managed through the term of the trust, normally five to six years, both from a strategic and ongoing maintenance position. Cash flow is generated through long term leases to quality tenants. Fixed annual rent increases provide growth in the rental income and property value. In addition, due to depreciation charges, distributions may provide a portion of income which is tax deferred. At the end of the term, the property is sold and the net proceeds repaid to investors.

As a pooled mortgage trust, the Trilogy Monthly Income Trust offers registered, first mortgage loans to borrowers for the development of property. As a pooled fund, investors share a proportional amount of the risk and the income from all the Trust s loans. Investors receive a monthly distribution based on the net returns from the loans and cash held. The Trust only offers property related loans, more specifically loans for the construction, development or re-financing of Australian property. Many borrowers approach Trilogy Funds for consideration and are carefully assessed. Trilogy Funds only accepts loans that meet strict lending criteria. Loan amounts must also be less than the project s total value, with the Loan to Valuation Ratio limited to 70% maximum of the as if complete value. *Past performance is not an indicator of future performance.
