Nearly 30 per cent of total investors interested in fractional ownership of commercial real estate are Non-resident Indians (NRIs), revealed a recent survey. They seek to create an alternative source of income for their family in India.
Mumbai-based MYRE Capital conducted the survey after collecting responses from over 1,500 high-ticket registered users and investors. MYRE Capital facilitates investors in fractional ownership of the commercial real estate.
The survey found that chartered accountants and finance executives showed the maximum interest (30 per cent of total respondents) in investments towards fractional ownership of the commercial real estate. They were followed by lawyers (21 per cent), doctors (15 per cent) and Tech-IT executives (13 per cent).
“These investors prefer fixed income options that are collateralised with a hard asset and have started appreciating the favourable risk-return profile of fractional CRE and the end-to-end management provided by fractional ownership platforms,” MYRE Capital was quoted as saying in a statement.
According to the survey, 72 per cent of investors are from India, and 28 per cent are NRIs from countries such as the US, the UAE, the UK, Denmark, Nigeria and Australia.
“Fractional investment has long existed in India but in an unorganised manner. Even now, investors limit themselves to residential real estate as their only choice of investment, and we want them to be aware of CRE as an effective avenue,” MYRE Capital’s Founder and CEO Aryaman Vir said.
