The value case for sustainability in commercial property

“We decided to invest in PMG because we wanted to take time back, in the knowledge our investments are being professionally managed by a team passionate about getting the best value and returns for their investors.

Initially we invested a sum across PMG’s investment funds. The financial performance of PMG's funds has been consistent and reliable. As a result, we have continued to invest more.”

“We wanted to invest in something, using the equity in the farm to borrow against, and reinvest in an income-producing investment to even out the ebbs and flows of farming. As a funds manager, everything PMG says it will do in its Product Disclosure Statements is delivered on. The PMG team is trustworthy, genuine, smart and approachable. They operate an open-door policy for their investors. You can see how everyone in the PMG team strives to achieve great results.”

“We wanted to remain invested in property, but have someone else manage it for us.

With PMG, we’re as happy as hell; the cheques keep rolling in. We lead a pretty good life, we don’t have to worry about much at all.”

“Transparent. Ultimately, they are trustworthy and I have a lot of respect for what PMG is doing. You have delivered a 100% on my expectations of what you said would do.”

“PMG were very receptive to our request to extend our premises. They have taken a real interest in the Tui business and genuinely care about our success.”

“The support shown... during a period that has no doubt also been very challenging for landlords, provided very welcome financial relief for Te Rito Maioha. We were also very appreciative of the speed at which you were able to work through a rent relief solution to share the burden of COVID-19 in a meaningful and tangible way with Te Rito Maioha. We look forward to continuing our association with PMG.”

"We've had rentals for a very long time, so that income can be up and down, whereas we know the money from PMG will be coming each quarter. It allows us to plan ahead, financially and within our life, and know that the money is going to be there."

"The great thing about PMG Generation Fund is that you can invest a small amount. I'd say to young people, it's actually never too soon to invest a small amount, if it's $1000, or $5000. It has a way of growing. I'd like to see more young people think about that. In life you can spend some money – but you also need to save money."

Staff now actively think about recycling thanks to PMG’s efforts. They’ve tidied up the whole area outside with signs, and the bins are all clean. PMG has come in and given us talks on how to do the recycling – they’ve done a really good job.

We have found the consistent and reliable returns from our investment in PMG funds to be totally dependable in comparison to farming, which can vary considerably from year to year.

We have total confidence in the management of the PMG commercial property funds we are invested in. Virtually none of our time or energy is required to manage this investment yet it gives us our largest source of income. We also find further comfort in the diversity of properties and spread across sectors and regions that the investment offers.

The returns and capital growth from our investment in the funds give us the financial confidence to enjoy a more relaxed lifestyle than a large farming business with all its risks and hassles could offer.

We have the time and tools to do more of what we enjoy other than working. This includes time off the farm at the beach with the family or enjoying outdoor activities like mountain biking, motorcycles and water sports.
