How it works

Building a property portfolio, made easy

Skip the deposit, the bond and the tenant who phones about the geyser. Each property on EasyProperties is owned by its own company, and you buy shares in that company: a slice of the building, its rent and its value.

New listing dates to know

Offer closes

You can participate in this new listing offer until this closing date. We will allow applications above the target to cater for cancellations and high demand. If the property is oversubscribed, you will be refunded for any remaining shares not allocated to you.

Estimated settlement date

Your shares will be allocated once the offer has closed and subject to the funding target being reached. If the funding target is not reached, your money will be refunded to you.

Cancellation policy48 hours

You can cancel your application within 48 hours of submission up until 10 days before the offer closes.

New listings: the IPO

IPO stands for initial public offering: it's when a property first becomes available for the public to invest in. That's you.

Shares are R1 each in the IPO. Apply for as many as you like. If the IPO reaches its target, your shares are issued when it closes; if it's oversubscribed, the extra money is returned in proportion.

How do I make money?

Rental income

You get a share of the rent received, after expenses, as quarterly dividends in proportion to the shares you own.

When dividends are paid

Capital growth

A professional values each property every 12 months, a guide for buying and selling at auction. Sell your shares at auction, or hold them to the end of the investment term.

Our properties

Long-term investing, made easy

Property is a medium- to long-term investment, so we intend to hold most properties for 5 to 7 years. When a property's term ends, investors vote on what happens next: keep it, sell it to other EasyProperties investors, or sell it on the open market.

Need to sell sooner? Each property goes to auction four times a year, where you can offer your shares to other investors.

Questions people ask

Shares in the company that owns the property. You're a shareholder, not a landlord: our rental management partners look after the tenants, leases, maintenance and accounts.
