Dividend 1.03p per quarter. Therefore 8% dividend.
43% discount (based on yesterday share price).
The article is about the hidden value. Note some of the assets are going through sales.
"The key differentiators of ReSI’s investment approach are:
Secure rents underpinned by pensions, housing welfare or shared owner stakes
Incredibly diversified income stream from thousands of homes and residents
Over £30k of government subsidy received for each new shared ownership home we deliver via ReSI Housing Limited, our wholly-owned for-profit Registered provider of social housing, allowing us to provide below-market rents to residents compared to private rented housing*
Unique proprietary shared ownership Customer and Environmental Charters maximises social impact"
Another look at RESI
"It is also the case that there’s a £20m sale of assets ongoing as part of an exit from Local Authority business (housing homeless folk). There are two remaining assets in legals which “should” complete in H2. The variable debt relating to this and is due end of 2024 therefore there is a qualified point of “going concern” as a result. RESI say they fully expect the sale to conclude and the debt to be repaid, and that alternative funding options exist if not. You could argue this to be an Achilles heel so it’s something to be comfortable with - or not.
Otherwise, debt is on 20 year average terms with extremely favourable and low rates of 3.5% fixed until 2043, and RPI + 0.5% (up to a capped 5.5%) over 40 years."
This sort of debt is a rarity. Inflation results in higher rent with no increases in interest rates till 2043.
The problem appears to be some high interest rate RCF related to local authority housing for the homeless. This is in the process of being sold and the debt will be paid off.

Information taken from Oak Bloke
Up 12% start of day.
Going into wind down.
Doubled up a couple of days ago. They were in the process of selling of some local authority (homeless housing) and paying of the RCF.
The remaining properties are covered by a 3.5% long term mortgage.
Reason given for wind down to small at £100 million. Plus very large discount.
I would vote against it but freetrade only allow voting on US companies.
Ridiculous attitude.
Quoteddata believe the assets may fetch close to NAV.
I believe the shared ownership housing (a third of the portfolio) will or may even have to go as job lot. Institutional purchase. Quite popular with institutions.
The retirement living maybe sold individually so long sale process. Sold some recently above NAV. The right offer and they could be sold as a job lot or broken down into smaller lots.
In the meantime the dividend should still be being paid although less as the capital is returned.
Presently on 30% discount. IF IF they sell at NAV then the upside is 42%.
Dividend is presently 7% covered 1.2 times.
