What is a wholesale investor?
A wholesale investor is an individual or entity that meets certain financial criteria under the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). These criteria allow investors to access investment opportunities that are not available to retail investors.
You may qualify as a wholesale investor if you meet at least one of the following:
- Net assets of $2.5 million or more, or
- Gross income of $250,000 or more per year for the past two financial years, certified by a qualified accountant, or

Once your application has been approved, you will receive details of current investment opportunities available through the Fund. After reviewing the Information Memorandum (IM) and relevant Supplementary Information Memorandum (SIM), you may select the investment you wish to participate in.
Following receipt of your investment funds, you will be issued with an Investment Certificate confirming your investment amount, interest rate, payment schedule and other key details in accordance with the relevant investment.
What happens if a development is delayed?
Property loans and developments may extend beyond their anticipated timeframe due to construction, settlement, sales, refinancing or other project-related factors. Where this occurs, the timing of investor distributions and capital repayment may also change. Depending on the terms of the relevant investment, distributions may be deferred while the project progresses towards an orderly repayment or realisation. Investors are kept informed through ongoing project reporting. Refer to the relevant IM and SIM for the specific terms and risks of each investment.*
Is there a minimum amount I can invest?
$50,000 per investment. All prospective investors are subject to wholesale verification and AML/CTF requirements prior to acceptance.
Can I re-invest my distributions?
We are not set up to receive regular income reinvestment at this point in time, however, please contact us for more details.
Is my investment secure?
Investments through 268 Fund are secured against Australian real estate through registered mortgage security. Each opportunity undergoes rigorous assessment, with a strong focus on a clearly defined exit strategy. Since inception, all investor capital and interest has been repaid.*
