WHY INVEST IN REAL ESTATE IN PRAGUE? CZECH REPUBLIC AS STABLE MARKET
The Czech Republic is one of the largest, and at the same time one of the most stable markets in new Europe: Since accession to the EU the Czech Republic could exhibit over the years a stronger economic growth than many countries in Western Europe. After an interruption of this growth due to the economic crisis, the Czech Republic observed in 2010/11 again a higher growth than some of its neighbours. For the coming years growth is expected to outperform the EU average again.
At the same time the Czech Republic has a much lower debt level than other European countries: The external debt in the Czech Republic is about 50 % of GDP – in the EU average the external debt is about 80%. The inflation rate in the Czech Republic is currently around 2 % – and is thereby lower than in most other countries in “New Europe”.
 
 
PRAGUE – A FINANCIAL AND ECONOMIC CENTRE IN CENTRAL EUROPE
Prague is the financial- and economic centre in the Czech Republic: About 2,3 million people in the catchment area of Prague – more than 20 % of the total population in the Czech Republic. With an unemployment rate under 3 %, the employment rate in Prague is not only higher than in the Czech Republic, it is also higher than in many other cities in Europe.

WHY INVEST IN REAL ESTATE IN PRAGUE? ATTRACTIVE MARKET CONDITIONS FOR REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS
Prague offers also attractive conditions for real estate investments: Prices for real estate in Prague are still lower than real estate prices in other European cities but given the stable economic and political development in the past almost 20 years it is expected that prices will catch up with the levels in other cities in Europe. Currently, the yields for residential real estate in Prague are about 4,5 % to 6,5% depending on the location and condition of the property. This offers not only attractive revenue opportunities from rental income or profits from the refurbishment of properties, but also additional appreciation potential if the prices catch up with the level in other cities in Europe.
Prague Prime Homes offers investors the opportunity, to become a co-owner of a selected apartment building in the exciting city of Prague. Investors participate not only in the profit from the re- development of the apartment building, but also on a possible value appreciation upon the sale of the property.

WHAT YOU SHOULD NOTE AS INVESTOR

  • Even though real estates represent actual values, there still may market-related factors, which affect the asset, financial and earning position of the project. Please take notice of the risk factors listed on page 9.
  • Even though figures are stated in EUR the purchase price/selling price is CZK denominated and currency fluctuations may have a significant impact on your return in EUR.
  • Prague Prime Homes Management (PPH Management) receives a fixed fee during the project life- term and is entitled for a performance related share in the project profit. In addition there is an arrangement fee for the debt and Meinl Bank is entitled for a banking fee for placing the equity with investors.
INVEST IN A PREFERRED LIVING AREA OF PRAGUE THE LOCATION
The project is located in Pechackova street number 3 in Prague 5. The project is situated just a one minute walk from the Vltava river – most of the apartments provide a direct view on the river – and the Mala Strana or Nove Mesto can be reached by feet within some minutes as well.
This part of Prague offers a variety of shopping opportunities and a wide range of services. The location has an excellent accessibility by public traffic and an easy and fast access to the city‘s main arteries allows for comfortable and convenient travel by car.
Property prices in that area of Prague are still significantly lower as in Prague 1 or in the streets that are directly facing the Vltava river and therefore apartments in that area are also affordable for younger people that are looking for an apartment in a central location of Prague. Due to the potential that prices will catch up with prices in adjusting areas an apartment in that part of Prague may be also attractive for end-buyers for investment purposes.

WHAT YOU SHOULD NOTE AS AN INVESTOR: IMPORTANT RISK INFORMATION
All of the following factors could have an (negative) impact on the asset-, finance- and earning position of the investment project. A consultation with qualified people, particularly through a tax advisor, can not be replaced in any way by these notes.
  • All forward-looking statements are involved with uncertainties and do not allow reliable conclusions and forecasts on future development.
  • The presented form of participation requires that a potential buyer can evaluate the risks, that he would like to invest capital for a period of at least 24 months and that the chosen investments are in line with its economic conditions.The selling price of real estate is subject of fluctuations. This may affect the business and the economic return over the financial planning.
    • The stated revenues on sales of real estate are forecasts. In the course of realization of the real estate, it is possible that because of general market conditions or the demand for real estate in the particular area of the city the forecast revenue cannot be achieved. Such development would have a significant impact on returns.
    • Problems during the development may delay and increase the cost of a project. Even though PPH Management puts all efforts to determine the required refurbishment costs it cannot be excluded that the actual costs will be higher than the estimated costs. This could result in another capital call with investors or the need to increase the debt financing for the project. Both may affect the predicted success.
    • The purchase/sales price is currently paid in CZK. Currency fluctuations between CZK and EUR can have a strong impact on the income of the investor.
    • Because of the participation form the investment will be illiquid. If an investor intends to sell the participation before the planned time of disposal the sales price could – if a sale is possible at all- be much lower than the purchase price. This might be also the case in the event of an unexpected sale of the complete property.
    • The investment is made in form of a share deal, where the investors hold shares in the property holding company.The real estate shall be insured at market conditions. Albeit it can occur that certain damages will be not covered through insurance. Under certain events even the destruction of the building might be not covered.
Changes in tax laws cannot be excluded. Such changes could have an impact on the asset,- finance and earning positions and on the taxation of income.
It cannot be excluded that future changes in the law might interdict the trust holding of real estate for foreigners or that measures are set with similar effects, which may affect the business model significantly negative.
The project shall be financed partly with debt capital. The economic success is dependent on the conditions of debt financing. The interest rate may change through the market situation which may affect the outcome of the project.
A monthly project management fee of EUR 6,500 (plus VAT) is paid to PPH Management, for its effort as project manager and coordinator. In addition PPH Management is entitled to a performance related fee of 20% of the profit at disposal.
The arrangement of debt financing is subject to an arrangement fee of 1% which is included already in the project costs as well.
Meinl Bank will be entitled to banking fees for its efforts of placing the equity stake with investors in the amount of 3% of the equity. This fees are included in the project costs.
Investors should read this document in conjunction with the PPH Investment Programme Memorandum and discuss the investment opportunity with your advisors who should review the documents to evaluate the potential risks for you.
An investment in a project under the PPH Investment Programme is suitable only for Professional Investors (MiFID definition).
Potential investors should be aware that if the project fails investors may lose some or, in the worst case all of their investment. Worst case scenario refers to events such as expropriation as a result of a change of political system, complete breakdown of market, acts of terrorism or natural desasters and resulting losses that cannot be insured.
