Unlisted property funds have recorded strong returns again this year, providing a 13.7% return over 12 months to 30 June, according to data from Zenith Investment Partners, MSCI, The Property Funds Association and the Property Council of Australia.
The data released in June 2019 by the Property Funds Association, also shows unlisted property trusts now have a five year annualised return of 22%.
What is an Unlisted Property Trust?
An Unlisted Property Trust is a fund in which a Trust structure has been created to act as the legal owner of a property on behalf of its investors. The fund manager makes decisions on behalf of investors who, like a listed property or management fund, purchase ‘units’ in the Trust. Unlike a listed property fund, units in unlisted property trusts are not as ‘liquid’ but can be sold to other investors. There is no established secondary market for unlisted property trust units.
