Walls & Futures REIT PLC (AQSE:WAFR) (W&F) has called a general meeting to vote through proposals that will see Vengrove become its investment manager with a remit to raise up to £25mln in new funding for the REIT.
Under the proposals, the Pax Homes business will be sold to current chief executive Joe McTaggart and structured in a way that will provide a reasonable return for the investment made to date, said the company in a statement.
Going forward, W&F will no longer develop properties but acquire stabilised income-producing real estate assets to enable it to scale faster and pay a dividend, it added.
Future investments will also be broadened to encompass social infrastructure including affordable housing, education, roadside and transport facilities and civic amenities.
Vengrove, which has a 6.7% stake in W&F, currently manages a £650mln portfolio, the company noted.
