Ecocity Brasil - Frequently Asked Questions
Who is Landcorp International?
Landcorp International was formed specifically to source lucrative land development opportunities across the globe and promote them to a much wider audience. We introduce first time and seasoned investors to a revolutionary way to participate early in land development and benefit from the significant gains that can be made from this type of investment.
What makes us different from other companies who promote land for sale?
Landcorp International is different from other companies for three main reasons:
- We do not promote greenbelt land. We only promote land that has very high potential to have planning permission granted.
- The legal structure used for a land purchase qualifies for Self Invested Personal Pensions (SIPPs) and all the associated tax benefits for UK tax payers.
- The developers we introduce investors to retain a significant interest in the land they offer and only invite a limited number of individual investors to participate. This means that their gain is linked to your gain
Does Landcorp International promote Greenbelt, agricultural or protected land for sale?
No. All land that we promote has high potential for development. Greenbelt, agricultural or protected land is pure long term speculation and has been zoned as such for a reason. The likelihood of a developer achieving rezoning from the local authorities on land which is protected from building or greenbelt is very low. Landcorp International undertakes due diligence to ensure that the land we promote has a high potential for development and is not just long term land banking speculation.
Who will develop the land?
The Development Companies for our land investment opportunities will develop the land.
What profit should I expect to make from the land?
The profit you can expect to make will be dependent on the initial price paid for the land and will be realised upon the resale of individual building plots with planning permission
Can I sell my land to someone else?
Yes you can sell your land at any time to a 3rd party of your choice.
How secure is my land investment?
Firstly, a completely independent UK-based Trustee Company will act on your behalf as Escrow Agent in the acquisition of the land and oversee all aspects of your participation.
Your money will be held in a separate bank account named an Escrow Account managed by the Escrow Agent. Under English Law, the money in an "Escrow Account" is protected and legally acknowledged that the funds belong to clients and not to the company managing it.
Your funds are also protected from creditors and would be returned to you without claim in the event the company managing the funds went into liquidation.
Your investment is secured by a title deed within the development and the liability of this opportunity is limited to the funds you invest
What about SIPPs?
For UK buyers, this overseas property purchase qualifies for investment in a SIPP which carries significant tax benefits
