News Detail
Mark Twain said “Buy land, they are not making any more of it”. When it comes to investing his advice even beats the old adage that engendered the timeless metaphor “Safe as Houses”.
Previously we noted “Historically, building land does better than homes. At the height of the boom UK houses with large gardens suitable for subdivision into smaller plots for building were selling for multiples of similar homes standing on just their own footprint.”
Many Brits know from experience the above is true. They sold off part of their garden to a developer and pocketed handsomely.
Now national boundaries are no longer an insurmountable impediment to movement thanks to e commerce and fast cheap travel. A new gold rush – for the best real estate on the planet – is stealthily underway. Perhaps the best way of all to take advantage of this paradigm shift is to invest in prime coastal land worldwide now.
DSR Asset Management Ltd wants to broaden your investment horizons with the offer of an exceptional opportunity to buy prime beach plots in South Australia at the site known as Echo Beach. Ideally situated within the picturesque and upmarket town of Beachport, the reason these plots are such a bargain is because the developers are selling part of their project land in parcels to small investors before the enhanced planning approval currently being sought and negotiated has been given.
Independent analysis shows that even without additional approval these plots are conservatively estimated to return something between 50-100% capital appreciation in 5 years. However if permission is given to build low profile eco homes on the site, as seem likely from reading the reaction of the local council - which is basically very supportive of environmentally-aware development in the area - land values will jump. This will increase the initial stake by a staggering 5-10 fold.
To draw an analogy with industry, this land offer is akin to a company issuing shares to the public to fund expansion and growth. And as we have already shown in one of our research files, shares give investors leverage over the underlying asset.
Leverage usually comes from accepting risk, but here the worst case should be a very respectable capital appreciation, while there stands a very realistic chance of sharing with the developer the spoils of an order of magnitude jump in value
