Investing with Vint carries inherent risks, including market volatility and economic fluctuations that can impact the value of wine and spirits collections. The lack of a secondary market further increases risk by limiting early exit opportunities for investors.
Investing in Concreit involves significant risks, such as the potential for complete loss of capital, illiquidity of investments, and exposure to the volatile real estate market. Other risks include the platform's limited operating history and potential conflicts of interest.
Vint currently does not offer a secondary market for the trading of interests in its wine and spirits collections, which means that investors generally lack immediate liquidity options.
Investments on Concreit are illiquid, with no guarantee of being able to exit through their redemption program.
Vint has achieved a net annualized return of 28.7%, calculated from realized exits of its investment offerings, reflecting the aggregate average performance of the platform's assets under management.
Concreit targets a 5.5% preferred annual return for investors, focusing on income through property value growth and rental income. Investors in Home Shares can potentially achieve an 8% to 14% annual return, combining equity appreciation and cash dividends from rental payments. While these returns are based on historical data and Concreit's strategic approach, actual future returns may vary due to market conditions and economic factors.
Vint's investment time horizon for its collections spans 1 to 3 years on average.
Concreit typically estimates a 5-7 year hold period for investments in Home Shares. While investments are long-term, Concreit's redemption program may allow for earlier withdrawal under certain conditions, providing some flexibility regarding the investment's time horizon.
Investment opportunities with Vint are open to accredited investors, who must satisfy certain SEC-mandated financial criteria.
Concreit is open to US citizens or residents over 18, with no requirement to be an accredited investor.
The wine and spirits market experiences volatility, which can lead to rapid changes in the value of Vint's collections.
Assets on the Concreit platform are subject to the volatility of the real estate market, influenced by economic conditions, interest rates, and supply and demand. This can lead to fluctuations in investment values, highlighting the inherent risks and potential for price volatility in real estate investments.
Vint adheres to SEC regulations by providing offering circulars for public investment and undergoes regular audits to maintain financial transparency and regulatory compliance.
Concreit is registered with the SEC as a Registered Investment Advisor (RIA), making it a fiduciary required to act in its clients' best interests. This registration subjects Concreit to SEC oversight and compliance standards.
Vint's investment assets are professionally stored and fully insured, with a strategic focus on location, primarily in the UK and additional facilities in the US, to align with potential sale markets.
Concreit investments do not have FDIC or SIPC insurance, meaning there's no governmental or organizational protection against loss for funds invested on the platform.
Vint does not issue regular dividends; returns are generated from the sale of assets at a gain.
Concreit distributes dividends from the net income of rental properties, after deducting expenses. For Cash Flow investments, the goal is weekly dividend payments, with an option for reinvestment. Home Shares investors receive quarterly dividends based on rental income, with potential profit from property appreciation upon sale. Distribution frequency and income depend on each property's performance and market conditions.
Investors receive funds from Vint after a collection is sold and proceeds are distributed, less any applicable fees.
Concreit investors face a 60-day hold period for withdrawals after investment, with the overall process taking 2-3 weeks. A short-term withdrawal fee applies to profits withdrawn within 12 months, where investors receive their full principal but only 4/5 of short-term gains.
Vint applies a transaction fee of 2.85% on both the purchase and sale of wine shares, encompassing costs for acquisition, storage, insurance, and selling. Additionally, there is a spread fee of 1.5% applied to the transactions of wine shares.
Concreit charges a flat $5 monthly fee for accounts under $5,000 and a 1.0% annual fee for balances of $5,000 or more, aimed at covering asset management costs. Fees are deducted monthly from the investor's bank account or the fund, based on the ending account balance the day before assessment.
After a collection sale, Vint issues pro-rata proceeds to shareholders and provides a 1099-DIV for tax reporting, prioritizing the settlement of any liabilities first.
Concreit supports investors during tax season by issuing a Form 1099-DIV for holdings that distribute $10 or more annually, simplifying tax filing. They aim to have tax documents ready by February 1st.
