Bartercard Real Estate Beats Targets for Opening Month's Sales


In its first month of operation, Bartercard Real Estate ("BCRE"), Bartercard's
wholly-owned UK real estate subsidiary, has achieved sales figures of 35
properties, which is substantially ahead of early internal target forecasts.

To support these sales Bartercard members have used, on average, 30% of the
total purchase value in Trade Pounds as the deposit on these purchases, i.e.
saved this in cash.

Since launch, BCRE has also signed a number of agreements with leading property
investment agents representing major property developers throughout the UK to
gain access to large stocks of properties, for resale to Bartercard members.

Wayne Sharpe, Executive Chairman of Bartercard today said: "As a direct result
of these property sales, Bartercard trade exchange members have benefited by the
use of trade pounds to purchase a cash appreciating investment without the use
of cash deposits.

"We are delighted with the initial uptake and success of BCRE's offering. With a
strong pipeline of interested investors we are confident that the model will
grow exponentially in the coming months".
