The details
Location Location Location
2 minutes from the City; 3 minutes from Canary Wharf
When Crossrail opens in 2019, this development will be within 2 minutes travel time from The City of London and within 3 minutes of Canary Wharf. The Silk District Development is literally a block from Whitechapel station on Crossrail. Just a 200-metre walk!
Highly Beneficial Deal Structure
The development is due for completion in 3.5 years. Investors are required to deposit 10% to exchange contracts in 21 days from reservation. This means that every 5% in capital growth will deliver a gross return of 50%. Therefore, a 10% increase in prices will deliver a 100% return. No stamp duty is due until completion. Therefore, any contracts sold on before completion will incur no stamp duty to the original investor. This structure provides the investor with leverage without any interest payable, or the hassle of obtaining a mortgage.
To reserve your unit, £2,500 is payable to the developer now. 10% deposit minus the £2,500 is payable within 21 days. After 6 months, 5% is payable and then another 5% is payable in 18 months.
Completion is due Q4 2021.
This is 3.5 years away, providing every investor a unique opportunity to make a leveraged return forecast to be very significant indeed.
Major Capital Growth
The global property firm, JLL, forecast price growth of 19.8% between now and 2021. Assuming the full deposit of 20% has been paid, this would result in a gross return of 99%.
This is a stunning opportunity.
Massive Employment Growth; Chronic Under-Supply
500,000 people work in the City. Over the next 5 years, employment growth is forecast to surge 27%, that is 100,000 more workers. Only 7,400 live in the City. Meanwhile, Canary Wharf is set to grow as an employment hub from 205,000 to 234,000 between 2017 and 2026.
Given that these two high employment districts will be 2 minutes and 3 minutes in travel time from 2019, this means the Silk District Development is ideally situated to benefit from these dynamics.
And Rental Growth
JLL also forecast rental growth of 15.3% for those investors who wish to hold on for longer term returns.

Estimated Return on Capital
The example below shows the estimated return on capital, for a buyer who deposits the full 20%. If the investor sells the unit on before the full 20% is due then returns could be higher if the capital growth is 19.8% or more. The return on capital is the profit plus the deposit, divided by the deposit This example excludes legal fees. The developer pays his own legal fees.
