    Salt fund returns of 14% including fees since inception is good but after tax the return would drop by 30%! Fees and tax reduces the real returns to individuals of managed funds significantly. "Buy and monitor" investors like many of us don't have the issue of tax and our only cost is brokerage. Individual investors have an inherent advantage over funds..sorry off topic.

    Don't overlook that Salt don't set out to make huge returns all the time - rather to make positive absolute returns under all market conditions.

    S&P/NZX50 Gross Index is up 50% over 3 years... Even in gross terms the fund has barely kept pace with the market they operate in...

    That is the situation with Ryman and Summerset. Our issueis not their management capability but their balance sheets andvaluation now that the housing market has turned
    I take that with a grain of...let me see...SALT. The national stat's suggest the market has not turned and RBNZ at a national level are still expecting real estate to increase 7% in the year ahead.
    Some so called experts have myopic vision when it comes to real estate and think the stat's for Auckland are a proxy for the whole country.

    If some people got off their chuff and had a look they would see there's a big difference between some villages and SUM others. SUM are a far nicer living environment than others.

    Salt people must have been sucked in by the Herald and other media ....aided and abetted by a few bank employed economists / commentators.

    Yep, the property market in the media and in reality poles apart.

    Good opportunity for decent long term investment returns here.

    (Be interesting when likes of Salt need to cover their short positions)

    ...and one of the issues for Auckland is that there may be pent up demand as new dwellings have not kept pace with the increase in population.

    Yes indeed mate, when she turns upward it could be quite swift. Haven't looked but I presume SALT are based in Australia ? as a lot of selling pressure lately has come in the afternoon when the Aussie market is trading.

    Agreed. With immigration running at 72,000 per annum, around half of them wanting to settle in Auckland and Labour trailing by miles in the polls and a serious systemic shortage of builders I can't see the overall situation changing to a material degree in the foreseeable future.

    We'll get some more visibility on how their development margins are tracking on 15 August.

    They are a NZ outfit
    https://www.saltfunds.co.nz/

    with mainly NZer's in their team
    https://www.saltfunds.co.nz/our-team-1/

    Last time I heard of them they got all vocal about the NPT selling out to KPG and ended up winning that stoush.
    For clarity, nothing I say is advice....
