Equity Platinum Fund 1

We started Equity Platinum Fund because our investors wanted more luxurious and centrally – located homes than what the Equity Villa Fund offered. The fund focused on buying premium residences in city centers, ski-in/ski-out locations, and luxury resorts. We hit the pandemic during the fundraising period, but the rental component of the investment helped us recover fast after the initial shock with an increased demand in the market for single-family homes. We also saw a huge increase in demand for buying second homes in vacation destinations. The Equity Platinum Fund attracted investors who wanted to travel domestically and internationally. Its portfolio is well-diversified across the US locations, European locations, Caribbean, and Central America.

Seeing demand for the Equity Platinum Fund, we launched Equity Platinum Fund 2 to build on the previous fund’s success.

The Fund’s objective is to raise $50 million to acquire up to 16 multi-million dollar luxury vacation investment homes in locations that offer world-class services and amenities, such as ski-in ski-out, beachfront location, and offer access to private clubs, golf courses and more. We aim to provide investors with a lifetime of vacation memories as well as financial returns.

Equity villa fund

The Equity Villa Fund was established in 2012 with the objective of purchasing vacation properties that promised substantial appreciation and income potential. Our strategy involved acquiring short sales and foreclosures in Hawaii, Florida, and Utah, followed by renovations to enhance their appeal. This approach was tailored to attract accredited investors interested in luxury vacations. Investors in the Equity Villa Fund benefit from an annual “dividend” in the form of personal use of these homes, alongside the investment gains accrued through property appreciation.

FAQ

01

What is Equity Residences?

Equity Residences is a pioneering luxury real estate private equity fund, tailored for accredited investors seeking a low-risk entry into luxury vacation home ownership. We specialize in offering portfolio ownership opportunities of upscale vacation residences worldwide, with a strong focus on a debt-free approach and a defined asset liquidation timeline. Over 90% of our raised capital is invested directly into select vacation homes, providing investors a diversified real estate portfolio and a hassle-free alternative to direct home ownership. Our model guarantees access to top-tier, professionally managed second homes, enhancing your investment portfolio with minimal direct ownership responsibilities and rent-free vacations.

02

How Does The Luxury Vacation Residence Fund Model Work?

Our investors make an upfront capital investment, and in return, they receive an equity interest in the fund’s portfolio of luxury vacation homes. The investment period is typically 10 years, and at the end of the term, the fund is liquidated, allowing investors to realize the full value of their investment and receive anticipated appreciation proceeds. Additionally, our investors enjoy the luxury of rent-free vacations in these upscale residences throughout the investment term, blending financial growth with lifestyle enrichment.

03

Investor Involvement: What’s Required?

Investors benefit from a passive investment experience. Our expert management team adeptly handles property acquisitions, maintenance, and investor communication. This hands-off approach ensures peace of mind and successful portfolio growth, coupled with the added luxury of selecting vacation destinations across our expansive residence portfolio.

04

Do fund owners have reservation priority in their own fund’s homes?

A standout feature of our real estate fund is the priority access granted to investors for vacation residences within their specific fund. In scenarios where multiple investors select the same property for vacations, co-owners in the relevant fund receive precedence. This exclusive access eliminates the typical booking challenges and ensures a tailored, hassle-free vacation planning experience.

05

Why invest in Equity Residences’ luxury vacation real estate fund?

Investing with Equity Residences offers a unique blend of luxury travel and financial acumen. Our investors enjoy a diversified portfolio of premium vacation homes and the ease of a passive investment structure, all under professional management. This approach not only elevates your travel experiences but also strategically enhances your net worth with minimal ownership complexities.
