Centuria unlisted property funds investor centre

Centuria opens unlisted property offers to investors wishing to participate in the ownership of high-value commercial property not normally accessible to individuals. Each offering by Centuria follows a careful study of the risks and returns of the property investment. A primary focus is placed on the quality of the property as the underlying asset of each investment opportunity.

If you are an existing investor, you can access information about your holdings on our Centuria Investor website.

Centuria has aligned its reporting frequency for closed ended unlisted property funds to the six monthly valuation cycle for the funds and reporting is now for the periods ending 31 December and 30 June. We host six monthly investor webinars to align with the new reporting frequency. Investors have access to the investor services team and fund managers in between these reporting periods should they wish to discuss their funds in greater detail.

Centuria’s open ended unlisted property funds: Centuria Diversified Property Fund, Centuria Healthcare Property Fund and the Centuria Agriculture Fund will continue to report quarterly.

How are distributions paid?

Any distribution payable will be deposited directly into your nominated bank account. Depending on the Fund, this is either monthly or quarterly.

When will I receive updates on my investment?

Each Investor receives quarterly or monthly distribution statements, quarterly Fund Manager’s reports and their annual tax statements. In addition, Investors receive copies of our Centuria Connect newsletter.

Can I sell my investment?

Generally, Centuria’s open-ended property funds offer Investors the opportunity to withdraw their investment monthly, on a limited basis, subject to the terms outlined in the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS).
Investors in Centuria’s closed-ended property funds should expect to retain their investment for the Fund Term which is generally 5-7 years. The capital value of Centuria’s closed-ended funds will be paid to investors as a result of the underlying property asset(s) being sold and the Fund being wound up. In some circumstances Centuria may offer a Liquidity Event at the end of the Fund term. Details of the Fund Term and possible Liquidity Event can be located in the relevant PDS. There is no secondary market for Centuria’s closed-ended unlisted property funds to trade on, however, it is also possible to transfer a Unit Holding to a new or existing Investor via an off-market transfer. An Investor wishing to transfer their investment will need to independently source a buyer for their holdings.

Can I transfer my units?

You can transfer your units in a Centuria property fund via an off-market transfer with another investing entity. In order to complete a transfer please read the transfer form available from our Centuria Investor website for detailed instructions.
