MYRE Capital(YieldwiseX Review – Fractional Real Estate Investing

Myre Capital Review

In this MYRE Capital Review, I will cover the details of the platform and my experience investing through the platform. Commercial real estate has been the preferred asset class for institutional investors and HNIs due to a stable rental income (8-10% yields) and appreciation potential(15 %-25% IRR).
This asset class has a high barrier to entry because of which it has traditionally been an opaque, illiquid,
and unaffordable investment option for most retail investors. MYRE Capital is democratizing commercial real estate ownership.

MYRE Capital Introduction

MYRE Capital, a venture by Morphogenesis, is a proptech platform that provides easy access, transparency, and liquidity to a curated selection of rent-yielding commercial real estate assets. Before we go into details of MYRE, let’s first understand what is Morphogenesis.

MYRE Capital Business Model

Property Selection Myre

At MYRE, each property is extensively evaluated with a focus on ensuring the long-term stability, viability, and performance of the asset. The selection process is based on stringent criteria involving predictive analytics across 30+ data points, 25 years of industry expertise, and our proprietary tech processes

MYRE Capital strongly believes in its asset selection and long-term performance. MYRE remains a co-owner in each of its opportunities with the other fractional owners MYRE will be assigned as the asset manager to the SPV and will be responsible for the management of the property, tenant, SPV, and investors.MYRE charges an annual asset management fee amounting to 1% of the initial investment amount. The asset management fee will be treated as an expense in the SPV and will be deducted from the rental income prior to distribution to the investors. For any untenanted period of the asset, the asset management fee will be waived. MYRE charges a 20% performance fee above a hurdle rate of 12% IRR at the time of exit. MYRE only earns this performance fee at the time of exit if MYRE is able to deliver the performance of above 12% IRR for the investor(s).

MYRE SPV

The SPV for the opportunity will be a Private Limited Company. The investors are assigned
securities of this SPV proportionate to their investment amount. The issued securities for each
investor will comprise of 10% worth of Equity holding in the SPV and 90% worth of Compulsorily
Convertible Debentures (CCDs). The net rental & other income will be distributed to the investors as interest on CCDs. The Coupon Rate of the CCDs would be adjusted to match the net annual yield. Any change in the income of the property will proportionately impact the coupon rate. If the rental escalates, the Coupon Rate of the CCDs would increase. Therefore, investors would draw monthly net rental
and other income, as applicable, proportionate to the size of their investment as Interest on
Debentures

MYRE Capital Investment Experience

Myre Capital Mumbai Times Square

I invested in Times Square Opportunity through MYRE. I was interested in the opportunity because of 3 reasons

    Solutions. Smartworks has subleased premises to Indian Financial Technology and Allied Services (IFTAS), a Reserve Bank of India (RBI) subsidiary.
  • High Yield – 10.5% + capital Appreciation
  • Great Location – Times Square is located in one of Mumbai’s largest commercial micro-markets,
    Western Suburb 1, has seen the highest tenant absorption, proximity to airports and highways.

Myre Capital Alternatives

There are few other players in Fractional Real Estate in India like Strata, Prop share, etc. As I have experience of investing about my first-hand experience which I do not have for others. As Investment size is high people should do due diligence before investing in others.

In other alternative assets categories in High Yield Klubworks, Grip Invest and Jiraaf have good opportunities while Liquiloans, Lendbox provide instant liquidity options.

Myre Capital Review

In this MYRE Capital Review, we covered Is MYRE Capital Safe, MYRE business model, My experience, etc. Among the Proptech platforms in India, MYRE is definitely one of the top ones. My Investment has been performing as expected. The Min ticket of INR 25 Lakh would be high for some investors. People should invest according to their allocation goal. The opportunity is great for investors who wish to add real estate to their investment portfolio.

  1. You missed comparing Myre with REIT investment. Minimum ticket size and taxation.

    • Thanks Rupesh. Valid points. Will incorporate in the update post soon!

  2. Also take a look at “Bhive” which is giving a lot more choice at lower ticket sizes. Would love to see your take on it.

    • I have seen Bhive. Yet to do a deep dive. One thing which I feel creates moral hazard is that they provide revenue on their own run business properties. Hence an independent party that vets those numbers is important.
