Bayleys Funds and Investment Products Division

Established in 2001, Bayleys Funds and Investment Products Division provides investors with access to premium, high yielding property investment opportunities across a range of property sectors including commercial, industrial, healthcare, agricultural and tourism.

Investment in a property fund is a relatively easy and straightforward way for investors to participate in the ownership of institutional grade properties at an entry level price – often as little as $10,000.

Investors’ funds are pooled, and they become investment partners in good buildings, with good tenants and long leases. The property is fully managed on behalf of the investors with returns distributed monthly into the investors’ bank account along with the potential for capital growth.

We have a very wide range of investors who participate, ranging from those who investment the minimum through to those who invest many millions across multiple offerings. Opportunities to invest in other investment products, including real estate debt are also available through Bayleys. In a real estate debt investment, investors’ funds are pooled and used to provide a loan to a borrower, with the borrower repaying the loan with interest.
