Trust & Compliance
How we protect your capital
Every opportunity published by CROWNHAVEN passes a 47-point due diligence process before reaching an investor. This page documents exactly what we verify, who we work with, and the safeguards built into every transaction.
Four pillars of every deal
Verified legal title
Notarised title chain, certified zoning, building permits (PBG/SLF in Indonesia, EIA in Maldives/Zanzibar, RERA in UAE, Chanote in Thailand). No exceptions.
Operator track record
Minimum 24 months of operational data for income-producing assets. We require occupancy, ADR and RevPAR reports — not marketing decks.
Conservative underwriting
Every financial model is stress-tested at 60% occupancy and -20% ADR. If the project does not clear our minimum hurdle rate under stress, we do not publish it.
Defensible exit path
We model exit at year 3, 5 and 7 using comparable transactions from the local secondary market — not theoretical appreciation curves.
47-point due diligence framework
Each project is scored across five domains. A single red flag in legal or operator domains is an automatic reject.
1 · Legal & title (12 checks)
Title chain, zoning, permits, lease/freehold structure, encumbrances, foreign-ownership eligibility, notary verification, registration confirmation.
2 · Developer & operator (10 checks)
Corporate registration, completed-project history, financial standing, key-person background, HMA terms, exit-history of prior projects.
3 · Financial model (10 checks)
Revenue assumptions vs market data, cost base validation, FX exposure, sensitivity at -20% ADR / -10pp occupancy, debt structure, distribution waterfall.
4 · Asset & operations (8 checks)
Construction quality, design coherence, operator-fit, FF&E budget, service standards, sustainability and infrastructure resilience.
5 · Exit & liquidity (7 checks)
Secondary-market depth, comparable transactions, brand resale premium, regulatory horizon, currency repatriation, capital-gains tax exposure.
AML / KYC & investor protection
We operate KYC and source-of-funds verification on every client before any reservation is processed. Documentation requirements follow FATF Recommendation 22 standards.
Reservation deposits are paid into developer escrow accounts (or notary trust accounts), never to CROWNHAVEN. We do not custody client funds at any stage.
Every transaction is structured through licensed local notaries and law firms. CROWNHAVEN does not issue legal advice — we facilitate, document and audit.
