Investment Risk Warning
All investments carry risk. Property and capital investments may result in partial or total loss of invested capital. Past performance does not predict future results. Indicative returns mentioned in our research are targets, not guarantees.
You may lose money.

- Strategic Advisory Service: We offer non-regulated strategic counsel on a retainer basis
- Network Facilitator: We connect members with licensed professionals — brokers, fund managers, architects
Clarification: Our services constitute independent research and strategic counsel, not personalised investment advice under securities law. You are responsible for making your own investment decisions.
2. Property Disclaimers
2.1 Research Limitations
Our property research is based on information available at time of analysis, publicly available data and network intelligence, comparable sales analysis, and our professional judgment — none of which is infallible.
2.2 What We Do Not Verify
- Legal Title: Always engage a lawyer to verify ownership and title status
- Structural Integrity: Always commission independent structural surveys and engineering reports
- Planning Permissions: Verify zoning, permits, and development rights with local authorities
- Environmental Issues: Conduct environmental assessments for contamination, flooding, etc.
- Utility Infrastructure: Confirm water, electricity, sewerage, and telecommunications availability
Property Transaction Warning
Never purchase property based solely on our research. Always engage:
- Licensed property lawyer — for title verification and contracts
- Chartered surveyor — for structural assessment
- Tax advisor — for transaction tax implications
- Licensed real estate broker — for transaction execution
All property transactions must be conducted through licensed brokers. Quoin House does not execute transactions.
2.3 Market Conditions
Property markets are subject to economic cycles and interest rate changes, political instability and regulatory changes, supply and demand fluctuations, currency risk for non-EUR investors, and natural disasters and climate events.
Property values can decline. Rental yields may be lower than projected. Properties may take longer to sell than anticipated.
3. Capital Disclaimers
3.1 Not Investment Recommendations
Our capital research and introductions are not personalised investment advice tailored to your specific financial situation, are not recommendations to buy or sell specific securities, do not constitute offers to invest or solicitations to purchase, and represent independent research — not regulatory-compliant investment advice.
3.2 Third-Party Fund Managers
All capital opportunities are facilitated through regulated third parties. We do not manage funds or accept client assets, execute transactions or provide custodial services, guarantee the performance or regulatory compliance of third parties, or control or supervise third-party operations.
You contract directly with fund managers, not through Quoin House. We are not responsible for their actions, errors, or failures.
3.3 Performance Disclaimers
- Indicative Returns: Target returns mentioned in briefings are manager-reported projections, not guarantees
- Past Performance: Historical returns do not predict future results
- Risk of Loss: You may lose part or all of your invested capital
- Liquidity Risk: Private investments may be illiquid; you may not be able to exit when desired
- Manager Risk: Fund managers may underperform, make errors, or commit fraud
Capital Investment Risks
Investing in private credit, real assets, and alternative strategies involves substantial risk:
- Loss of Capital: You may lose your entire investment
- Illiquidity: Investments may be locked up for years with no exit
- Complexity: Strategies may be difficult to understand or evaluate
- Leverage: Some strategies use borrowing, amplifying both gains and losses
- Counterparty Risk: Third parties may default on obligations
- Regulatory Risk: Changes in laws may adversely affect investments
Only invest capital you can afford to lose.
3.4 Investor Qualification
Many capital opportunities require qualification as a Professional Investor under MiFID II (€500K+ portfolio or institutional), a High Net Worth Individual (€1M+ investable assets), or a Sophisticated Investor with demonstrated knowledge and experience.
It is your responsibility to confirm you meet qualification requirements before investing.
4. Referral Relationships & Conflicts of Interest
4.1 Referral Fees
Quoin House may receive referral fees from licensed real estate brokers, regulated fund managers, and professional service providers including architects, lawyers, and others. We disclose all referral arrangements transparently before introductions. Referral fees do not increase the cost to you — they are paid by the partner from their standard fees.
4.2 Independence
Despite referral relationships, our research and recommendations remain independent. We are paid primarily through member retainers, not commissions. We have no obligation to recommend any specific partner and we decline partnerships that compromise our judgment.
5. Information Accuracy
5.1 No Guarantee of Accuracy
While we strive for accuracy, we do not guarantee completeness or accuracy of third-party data, availability of opportunities mentioned in briefings, currency of information as market conditions change rapidly, or freedom from errors or omissions.
5.2 Information Sources
Our research relies on public property listings and registries, fund manager-provided performance data, market reports from third parties, and network intelligence from professionals. We cannot verify all information independently. Always conduct your own due diligence.
6. Forward-Looking Statements
Our briefings may contain forward-looking statements about property market trends and pricing projections, investment return expectations, economic conditions and policy changes, and development timelines and completion dates.
Forward-Looking Statement Warning
Forward-looking statements are not guarantees. Actual results may differ materially due to unexpected economic conditions, regulatory or political developments, market sentiment shifts, or unforeseen events such as pandemics, natural disasters, or conflicts.
Do not rely solely on projections. Past trends do not predict future outcomes.
