Investing on Timeless involves risks such as market volatility, liquidity constraints, regulatory changes, and asset-specific issues like authenticity.

Landa offers share liquidity through its trading platform, with market hours set from 9:30 am to 5:00 pm EST and a 2% trade fee. Share pricing is flexible, but an active buyer market is not guaranteed.
While traditional collectible investments are illiquid, Timeless offers a level of liquidity by enabling trading among investors during the average holding period of 2 to 8 years. However, liquidity is influenced by demand within the platform and the collective decision to sell the asset.
Landa offers returns through rental income distributions and potential property value appreciation, with additional tax benefits. Returns are influenced by property location, type, and market conditions, shaping overall investment performance.
Timeless cannot guarantee returns as the collectibles market is unpredictable. However, historical data shows an average annual return of 40% on their platform, with returns ranging from 9.1% to 93.1% per year. Investors should note that past performance is not indicative of future results.
Landa focuses on long-term property investment, with the potential for indefinite holding periods due to market liquidity or property performance.
The typical investment time horizon on Timeless ranges from 2 to 8 years, varying by asset class. During this period, investors can trade shares for liquidity before a collective decision is made to sell the asset, subject to majority approval.

Real estate values can fluctuate unpredictably, impacting Landa share prices and potentially leading to significant investment losses in volatile markets.
The assets on Timeless, being exclusive collectibles, are subject to inherent volatility due to factors like fluctuating market demand, the rarity and exclusivity of items, condition and authenticity concerns, and broader economic and cultural trends. These factors can lead to significant price swings, making the value of collectibles unpredictable over short periods. While Timeless carefully selects collectibles with high potential for appreciation, investors should be mindful of this volatility and how it aligns with their investment goals and risk tolerance.
Landa's "Shares" are SEC-regulated real estate investments with risks, including loss and illiquidity. Resale of Shares is limited to a secondary platform with no guaranteed market, requiring investors to potentially hold shares indefinitely.

Without specific details from Landa, it's assumed properties are insured for damage, not for market or fraud risks, with potentially limited coverage.
Timeless stores collectibles in a secured German facility with insurance coverage, though it's crucial to note that not all damages, such as those from force majeure, may be covered. Additionally, there's no guarantee of compensation for losses, as there are no guarantee funds or deposit insurance for investors. This points to a risk of partial or complete value loss in certain scenarios.
Landa investors earn through monthly dividends derived from rental income minus property expenses and through potential appreciation by selling shares in a secondary market. However, dividends are not guaranteed, may fluctuate with property performance, and share trading is subject to market availability.
Timeless does not provide traditional dividends. Instead, investors gain returns from the appreciation of collectibles, realized when these assets are sold for a higher value than their purchase price. Profits from such sales are distributed among investors based on their shareholdings, acting as a one-time capital gain rather than regular dividends.

There are no ongoing fees for the storage or operation of the platform, and no fees are charged to investors upon the sale of a collectible.
