VANCOUVER, BC, May 2, 2023 /PRNewswire/ - Parvis Invest Inc. (TSXV: PVIS) ("Parvis" or "the Company"), a technology-driven real estate company focused on broadening access to institutional quality real estate investment opportunities, today announced a co-agency agreement with Equiton, a leading Canadian private equity real estate investment firm, to distribute two Equiton products on the Parvis platform.
Through this co-agency agreement, investors registered on the Parvis platform will have turnkey access to a leading private real estate investment trust (REIT) opportunity with monthly distributions in addition to the varying, premium development projects listed on the platform. The two funds set to be listed include the Equiton Apartment Fund and Equiton Income and Development Fund, both designed to provide investors with access to a diversified portfolio of institutional quality real estate investments.
"We believe in Canadian real estate. Its strong fundamentals have helped many people build wealth for their families. That's why we're so excited about this partnership with Equiton, " said David Michaud, Chief Executive Officer of Parvis. "From the beginning, we've wanted to build a platform that helps more people build long-term value and wealth. But investors who want access to private real estate investment face barriers. Now, through our tech-enabled platform, we can provide access to both individual and pooled investment opportunities - allowing investors to find the right fit for them, no matter what their investment objectives might be, with little hassle. This is an important step forward for our business, and I couldn't be more excited about it."
As of May 2, 2023, the Equiton Apartment Fund comprises 32 properties across 17 communities in Ontario and Alberta, with a total of 2,548 residential units with a targeted annual net return of 8-12% per year.
The Equiton Income and Development Fund provides access to a diversified portfolio of institutional grade real estate assets including income producing (commercial/industrial/lending) as well as development projects. The Fund targets an average annual net return of 12% to 16% over a 10 year period.
Both Funds specialize in acquiring multi-residential properties in Canada and increasing their value through active management and monthly distributions to investors from rental income and capital appreciation.
The listing of these funds follows Parvis' signing of an agreement to provide Exempt Market Dealer (EMD) services to Harvestd and Parametric, which opened up an exciting vertical for the company.
