Ownership Terms & Conditions
Last updated: May 2026
Introduction
These Ownership Terms & Conditions ("Ownership Terms") govern the acquisition, holding, management, and transfer of fractional ownership interests in real estate assets offered through the Amantius platform. These Ownership Terms form part of, and should be read together with, the Amantius Terms of Service, Property Owner's Declaration, Risk Warning, and Privacy Policy. In the event of any conflict between these Ownership Terms and the general Terms of Service, these Ownership Terms shall prevail in relation to ownership matters.
Fractional Ownership Structure
Each property available on the Amantius platform is divided into a fixed number of ownership shares. Each share is represented by a unique non-fungible token (NFT) minted on a blockchain network selected by Amantius for its security, transparency, and low environmental impact.
Token Standard
Ownership NFTs are issued under an audited smart-contract standard. Each token is unique, non-divisible, and carries metadata identifying the property, share percentage, and issuance date.
Legal Wrapper
Legal title to each property is held within an Amantius special-purpose vehicle (SPV) or trust structure registered under UAE law. NFT ownership confers the beneficial interest in that SPV or trust proportionate to the share held.
Minimum & Maximum Ownership
Each property listing specifies the minimum and maximum number of shares any single owner may hold. These limits exist to maintain diversity of ownership and compliance with applicable foreign ownership regulations.
Acquisition Process
Ownership shares are acquired through the following process:
- Account Registration & KYC: The purchaser must hold a verified Amantius account with completed Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) checks. Amantius reserves the right to decline any application without providing reasons.
- Property Selection: The purchaser selects the number of shares they wish to acquire from an available property listing. Full details including price per share, projected income, fees, and property information are displayed prior to purchase.
- Reservation & Payment: Payment is processed in the currency indicated in the listing (typically AED or EUR equivalent) via approved payment methods. Payment confirms reservation of shares.
- Legal Documentation: Upon successful payment and KYC clearance, Amantius issues the relevant beneficial interest certificate and registers the transaction in the SPV/trust record.
- NFT Issuance: Ownership NFTs are minted and delivered to the purchaser's registered digital wallet address within 5 business days of payment settlement.
- Owner Onboarding: The new Owner receives access to their owner dashboard, property documents, and the first quarterly report upon the next reporting cycle.
Ownership Rights & Restrictions
Rights
- Receive proportionate rental income distributions.
- Use annual property credit allocations for stays at Amantius portfolio properties.
- Participate in governance votes on material property decisions.
- Transfer or sell your shares subject to the conditions below.
- Access financial reports and property data through the owner dashboard.
Restrictions
- Lock-Up Period: Shares may not be transferred or listed for resale during the initial lock-up period specified in each property listing (typically 12 months from purchase).
- No Subletting: Owners may not independently sublet or commercially exploit the property or their usage credits outside the Amantius platform.
- No Pledging: Shares may not be used as collateral or security for any third-party loan or financial instrument without prior written consent from Amantius.
- Sanctions Compliance: Owners must not be subject to any international sanctions list. Shares held by a sanctioned party will be immediately frozen pending legal review.
- Transfer Pre-Approval: All proposed transfers must receive Amantius compliance clearance on the incoming buyer before completion.
Rental Income Distribution
Net rental income generated by each property is distributed to Owners on a quarterly basis. The distribution calculation is as follows:
Gross Rental Revenue
Less: Platform service fee (as disclosed per property)
Less: Property operating expenses (maintenance, insurance, utilities, owners' association fees)
Less: Reserve fund contribution (typically 5–10% of gross revenue)
= Net Distributable Income
Distributed pro rata to each Owner based on their percentage share within 30 days of each quarter end.
Distributions are paid to the bank account or digital wallet registered on your Amantius account. Tax obligations arising from rental income are the sole responsibility of each Owner in their jurisdiction of tax residence. Amantius will provide the documentation required for tax reporting upon request.
Annual Costs & Fees
The following recurring costs apply to each property and are deducted before distribution. Exact rates are disclosed per property prior to purchase and updated with 30 days' notice upon any change:
| Fee Type | Basis | Typical Range |
|---|---|---|
| Platform Service Fee | % of gross rental revenue | 8–12% |
| Property Management Fee | Included in service fee | Included |
| Annual Service Charge | Per unit (owners' association) | Disclosed per property |
| Reserve Fund Contribution | % of gross rental revenue | 5–10% |
| Transaction Fee (secondary market) | % of sale price | 1–3% |
One-time acquisition fees (legal, registration, and smart-contract costs) are disclosed in the purchase confirmation and are not included in the recurring fee schedule above.
Exit & Transfer
Secondary Market Listings
After the lock-up period, Owners may list their shares for sale on the Amantius secondary market. The platform matches buyers and sellers and facilitates compliant transfer following KYC clearance of the buyer. Amantius does not guarantee liquidity or a minimum sale price.
Peer-to-Peer Transfer
Direct transfers between parties are permitted subject to: (a) completion of the lock-up period; (b) Amantius compliance clearance of the receiving party; and (c) payment of the applicable transfer fee.
Portfolio-Level Exit
A vote to sell a property in its entirety may be initiated by Owners collectively holding 75% or more of the shares. In the event of a successful portfolio-level sale, all Owners receive their proportionate share of net proceeds after deduction of sales costs, outstanding liabilities, and the reserve fund balance.
Redemption
Amantius does not currently offer a guaranteed buyback or redemption facility. Owners wishing to exit should use the secondary market or peer-to-peer transfer mechanisms described above.
Governing Law & Jurisdiction
These Ownership Terms are governed by the laws of the United Arab Emirates and, where applicable, the laws and regulations of the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC). Any disputes arising under or in connection with these Ownership Terms shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution procedure set out in the Property Owner's Declaration, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Amendments
Amantius reserves the right to amend these Ownership Terms at any time. Material amendments will be notified to all registered Owners via email and through the platform dashboard at least 30 days before taking effect. Continued use of the platform and retention of ownership shares after the effective date of any amendment constitutes acceptance of the revised terms. If you do not accept amended terms, you may initiate a sale of your shares through the secondary market prior to the effective date.
