Exchange bonds – a weapon of choice?
Exchange bonds – what are they, why would you use them?
An exchange bond is an insurance backed bond that provides the seller (developer) with a guarantee that they will receive the deposit.
This replaces the cash deposit you (the purchaser) would normally have to pay on exchange.
That means:
- You retain liquidity (and any interest on your funds, you have a cash contingency and available funds for other investments)
- You can reserve immediately (taking priority over other potential investors)
- You mitigate cash flow issues – removing need to tie up funds for long periods of time
- You have effective access to low cost of funds (much lower than credit cards and most forms of personal loan)
