By becoming a Maven Investor Partner you will gain exposure to UK property investments often with strong underlying asset backing, including Purpose Built Student Accommodation (PBSA) and Build to Rent (BTR).

Risk warning
Property investments may be difficult to realise, as they carry a higher degree of risk than many other forms of investment. These investments are intended for Professional Clients only. They are only suitable for investors who are able to evaluate and understand the risks and merits of such investments and have the resources to bear any loss that may result from such investments.
Frequently asked questions
How much can I invest?
The minimum commitment is £25,000 per transaction, with the option to increase the amount above that level subject to availability. Many of our investors commit much larger sums, depending on personal circumstances.
How to invest in property?
Before you invest in real estate it wise to carry out your own research to understand property investment strategies, fees, and risks. A prospective investor must be able to demonstrate that they are in a position to make their own investment decisions and are fully aware of the risks involved in investment in alternative assets including the risk to some or all of their capital. These investment opportunities are only available to professional clients and eligible counterparties as defined by FCA rules.
Maven Investor Partners offers professional client investors a way to create a bespoke portfolio with exposure to alternative investments that are uncorrelated to the public markets and usually only available to institutional capital. If it’s the right option for you, the next step would be to get in touch and register your interest with us. We have a team of experts with many years' experience in real estate investments and with a proven track record of success in the sector.
Is commercial property a good investment in the UK?
Although it has cyclical characteristics, UK property remains an attractive class for investors. This is due to the expanding demand across all sub-sets of the asset class, on the back of population and corporate growth. Income yields remain at healthy levels in a low interest rate environment, with a number of indicators pointing to growing competition for space and rising property rental levels in many UK cities.
UK commercial properties offer investors access to relatively predictable returns as part of a diversified portfolio in the alternative asset area. Often there is very controlled and measurable ‘downside risk’ given the underlying asset backing associated with property.
What type of real estate investments do you target?
The Maven property team is able to source and evaluate a wide range of investment opportunities throughout the UK. In each case we look to partner with an experienced developer or asset manager who will often be a fellow investor in the project.
We have successfully completed developments of hotels, student accommodation, office refurbishment and residential properties using this operating model. We also have expertise in structuring tax-efficient opportunities where possible.
What is your typical hold period?
Typically, we aim for a holding period of two to four years. That said, we can also elect to keep an asset within the portfolio for longer if it has strong income generating characteristics.
How can investors track performance?
Maven provides investors with cash distributions on the loan stock element of each investment on a six monthly basis where contractually due. Performance update reports on portfolio holdings are also provided to Investor Partners at that time. When an investment is sold, Maven distributes cash proceeds to investors.
Maven also has a dedicated and secure portal enabling Investor Partners to keep track of their portfolio at any time.
Is there a cost to become a Maven Investor Partner?
There are no costs to becoming a Maven Investor Partner. Fees are only payable on the sum invested. Due to FCA regulations, we will need to verify that you are classed as a high net worth, experienced investor before we can share details of any private equity or real estate opportunities.
