accounting policies                                                             
The accounting policies applied in the preparation of these condensed           
consolidated interim results, which are based on reasonable                     
judgements and estimates, are in accordance with International                  
Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") and are consistent with those            
applied in the annual financial statements for the year ended 31                
March 2009. These condensed financial statements as set out in this             
report have been prepared in terms of IAS 34 - Interim Financial                
Reporting, the Companies Act of South Africa, as amended, and the               
Listings Requirements of JSE Limited.                                           
                                                                                
These condensed consolidated interim results for the six months ended           
30 September 2009 have not been reviewed by the group`s auditors and            
have been prepared on the fair value and going concern bases.

It has been identified that in the prior year results investments in            
associate property companies was separately disclosed from                      
investments in investment property as a result of incorrect                     
terminology, even though the intended measurement principles were               
correctly and consistently applied. To rectify the error, the                   
investments in associate property companies have been correctly                 
classified as investment property in the results for the year ended             
31 March 2009 and the interim results for the six months ended 30               
September 2009.

The linked unit structure of the group whereby every shareholder is a           
debenture holder, coupled with the terms of the Debenture Trust Deed            
which states that 99.9% of profits are attributable to debenture                
holders, results in the benfits of improved trading which would be              
ordinarily attributable to shareholders being expensed in the income            
statement as a fair value adjustment to debentures and debenture

Fairvest is a property investment holding company with investments              
in commercial and retail properties in South Africa. Its short-term             
investment strategy is to create a property portfolio of significant            
critical mass through acquisition of quality, high-yielding                     
properties. Accordingly, investment opportunities are being                     
evaluated for acquisition on an on-going basis.                                 
                                                                                
Review of results                                                               
The group continued to produce pleasing results. The net asset value            
per linked unit increased 4% from 146.4 cents as at 31 March 2009 to            
151.6 cents as at 30 September 2009.                                            
                                                                                
Revenue declined by 9%. However, if revenue previously derived from             
Nedbank Circle and Mangrove Beach Centre properties which were sold             
in the comparative period is excluded, revenue improved by 11% to               
R7.8 million. Trading profits improved by 37% largely as a result of            
the disposal of the underperforming properties.                                 
                                                                                
As the properties are valued annually in March, the property                    
portfolio under management remained unchanged at R86.4 million                  
largely as a result of renovations and improved occupancy in certain            
of the properties.                                                              
                                                                                
The balance sheet of the group remains strong with cash and cash                
equivalents of R43.5 million. Fairvest is well-positioned to take               
advantage of opportunities that may arise in the present uncertain              
economic conditions.                                                            
                                                                                
Interest distributions and                                                      
dividends                                                                       
Interest on debentures has been calculated in terms of the Debenture            
Trust Deed. However in line with the company`s policy of declaring              
annual interest distribution and dividends, no interest                         
distributions or dividends have been declared for the six month                 
period under review in respect of the linked units.                             
                                                                                
Subsequent events                                                               
The directors of Fairvest are not aware of any material matter or               
circumstance that has occurred between 30 September 2009 and the                
date of this report.

There has been no change to the board of directors. Owing to                    
insufficient independent non-executive directors the audit committee            
has been suspended and its functions are fulfilled by the board.

We extend our appreciation to our directors, management and staff               
for their valued efforts as well as our advisers, financiers and                
shareholders for their continuing belief in and support of Fairvest.
