Investment Formula

1

We invest in real estate, particularly in disused office spaces that can be repurposed into mixed-zone office and affordable residential areas.

2

The first step in adding value involves repurposing each project by utilizing permitted development rights to redesign and rezone the building for mixed-zone use.

3

The gains from the value-uplift are then allocated as seed investments to our software startups, creating a virtuous cycle of risk mitigation with significant upside potential.

4

Over time, some of these products will generate substantial value, increasing the portfolio's total worth, while the initial base value remains secure, eliminating the risk of total loss.

5

This formula enables the creation of above-average margins over time while continuously hedging the risk of total loss through hard assets.

LivWork I
In the UK, an abundance of abandoned office buildings and a shortage of affordable housing and economical office options create the substantial opportunity that Liv work intends to address. Permitted Development Rights (PDR) legislation facilitates the rezoning of these spaces to merge commercial and residential uses, allowing us to capitalize on this regulatory change.
