* To provide investors with stable token distributions, payable quarterly, where reasonably possible, tax deferred, with the opportunity for long-term growth, and a focus on preservation of capital
* To offer a diversified investment portfolio of income-producing business assets.
* To maximize token value through the active management of the portfolio and through acquisition of additional properties and other financial assets
* To leverage on the strategic relationships within DCAPS’s network to increase investment opportunities and manage risk.

## Lifecycle

1. Purchase the token
2. Stake your token
3. Earn rewards
4. Earn Passive income

## Strategy

* Purchase undervalued assets with untapped potential, high customer retention, and for our real estate investments - stable tenant base. Investing in the assets, reducing operating costs, and maximizing income.
* Investing in newer, stabilized assets with proven market access within industries or sectors that do not require advancements allowing DCAP to realize maximum income quickly.
* DCAP leverages on its strategic relationships with its partners to proactively create a pipeline of new investment opportunities. Having the network involved throughout the development acquisitions of DCAP are familiar, having performed due-diligence throughout the build and stabilization phases.

## Investing for Income and Strategy

### Apartment Investing

* Steady, predictable cash flows with low vacancy rates
* Favourable market for rentals, with great demographics; DCAP properties are generally in the “need to rent” category with high demand.

### Student Housing

* Consistent with our philosophy of seizing upon strategic opportunities
* Steady, predictable cash flows with low vacancy rates
* Dominant player in a large, relatively untapped market being the largest (non-university) owner of student housing.
