I bought 2 stores, in Johannesburg and Pretoria. Two years later I sold, making 30% return on capital on the first store, and had to book a R2M. ($140k) loss on the second shop, which included being sued by the funding bank, which I eventually settled out of court. Ouch.

PROSPER Investment Properties

2002 - 2008 (residential property portfolio)

PROSPER was my residential real-estate investment portfolio. Which included buy to rent properties in the upmarket Johannesburg area, as well as a few buy and flip deals.

​

The simple, underlying strategy was a long-term buy and hold, with 3 year refinance cycle which would accelerate the investment cycle.

​

I had to liquidate my property portfolio to settle with the bank with respect to the Gloria Jean's Coffees court case.
