Questions About the Investment

Real estate can offer several advantages over other types of investments, including higher returns, market stability, inflation hedging, diversification, capital preservation, and supplemental income. Traditional options for investment are to become a passive investor: investing in real estate investment trusts (REITs) or real estate exchange traded funds (RE ETFs), which offer no use privileges or tax benefits; OR to become an active investor: flipping, holding and renting, or investing in a second home for personal use, all of which require a substantial ongoing commitment of time and resources. Laurian Holdings presents an opportunity to be a passive investor, earn income, realize appreciation, and use the properties; fully serviced, managed, and maintained.

Investors will purchase Units of Limited Partnership ownership interest in the Company. Investors will be entitled to a pro-rata share of Company profit and losses based on their percentage of ownership. Each Limited Partnership Unit will be allotted property use credits annually that can be exchanged for stays at any Laurian Club Residence, Laurian Estate Social Clubs, Laurian House, or Partner property.

Preferred return refers to the order in which profits from a real estate project are distributed to investors. In regard to this investment, Limited Partners receive 100% of available cash and proceeds from operations and the sale of assets until their initial capital contribution has been returned, less any outstanding amounts owed to the Company, before the Sponsor receives any distribution.

Limited Partners may offer unused credit nights to guests or consign them to the rental pool. If rented by other Investors, the operational value (vs the retail value) of the credits will be credited to the Investor’s annual operations dues. Operational value is calculated as what you paid in Annual Dues / number of Unit Credits. Example: $10,000 Dues / 100 Credits = $100 operation value per credit.
