Hye,
Has anyone being approached by any sales executive profitable plots?

I always being disturb by this fella. he asked me to join..but the investment cost is very high.
has anyone can tell me about this company?

say no.no.no.no.no.no dun let the word greedy controls u.

more information?

It's always at the property booth. They buy land in the UK and plan to give profit when they change the title to residential land because there will be a hike in the price of the land.

It works like unit trust, where they pool investors money and invest in land that they claim will appreciate very soon.
They will keep on rolling the money by buying and selling.
I don't really put my money in this because if I would buy land, I'd rather get one myself than letting them do it.

They are one of the UK land banking group. The min investment in this type of scheme is around RM30K. If they still bother you, just say you don't have the $$$

It's reputable.....but the cost for investment is too high for me.
It also has it's advertisement in ESPN.

Even if I could afford it, its difficult for me to manage or see whats happening abroad. Worst if there's some legal issues, then owners need to come down to UK to settle? No thanks....its appealing, but not something I wanna venture 1st.

Yeah,
the investment takes about 3 years for Return On Investment.
Better go to Public Bank Mutual Trust.
Anyone has greater comments?

PP is something like Walton who has been around for years. They are involved in something they like to call LandBanking.

PP are into lands in UK while Walton are involved in land in Canada. They invite public to have a piece of the pie (Land) of which they acquire in the belief that it will appreciate in value. The land are normally suburbs and areas where the government has "plans" to develop the place in foreseeable future (5-15years). As development encroaches the plot of land that you invest in, the value increases. The stakeholders will then decide if they would like to sell off their holding via majority decision and to lock in profits.

You can however sell anytime at a valuation during the time of disposal. These are reputable companies operating for years and while Landbanking is pretty much still alien to us here in Malaysia, it is one form of investment instrument in the west for a long time.

i heard that onced u invested. they will tell u, the price of the land drops. then drops then drops. then drops. until NO VALUE

Do not spread rumors on things that you do not know. Like the other thread where you posted and advise TS to go Genting gamble is just pure BS. Not only it shows that you're not fit in discussion here but also shows that you don't even qualify to secure your own life.

Anyway, land price in UK is on the raise. The only problem here is the initial amount of money to be invested is quite high for average ppl.

Obviously with risk involved too; thus it's still known as investment.

Land investment is just another form of investment. Of course all investment plans have risks and failures. U think mutual fund doesnt have . Go check again . Everything has. Normally the degree of return is in tandem with higher the risk of losses .

Like commodity trading gives u excellent returns but also can mean great losses. Or say you trade . Options trading is more easier to make more money but is also easy to lose money as well.

Currently a huge property boom in the UK. Doesnt mean that it will last forever but also doesnt mean that when it ends you will lose all your investment.

so, have u actually invested on this land? Go genting gamble is not BS. its just not ur cup of tea. u dont know the probabilty of winning thats all. Not only it shows that u are a closed minded person but also shows you dont even qualify to read other ppl's posts. the main point of forum is to get ideas from everyone. some maybe good/bad. depends on YOUR PERSPECTIVE. so if its not ur cup ot tea. just shut up.

3years ROI
IF UK had a boom market on property... Then It's worth
Nah, check back your risk profile... (Serious)

@dante3,

Since you'd mention



Then it's boon's idea/the way he looks at you. If it's not your cup of tea, then you should shut up. But you're not. That's mean it's your cup of tea right?? BSers....

You had done posting something not even constructive.
If you insist, please just hand out any source, document, or etc. that can prove something like what you'd say above.

yeah right......so good investment strategy you got there....
So which games in Genting you played/gambled?
Btw, if you are to do your studies; there's a thin line between investment and gambling. Do up a research on the difference if you really want to.
Not closed minded, you can say conservative (maybe I'm no longer young anymore, more things to consider in life)...let's see you teach your kids next time to go gambling....start them young I would say!.....
The point that I shot you down is because of your own comment:
"i heard that onced u invested. they will tell u, the price of the land drops. then drops then drops. then drops. until NO VALUE"
So how about those that profited from the investment.

Also if you care to read up on the article I posted, it's about the risk involved. So called calculated risk.
And no, I haven't invested in it as I've mentioned first the initial investment capital is considered high to me. 2ndly, this is not my cup of tea. Though it's not my cup of tea, I provided constructive information....do you?!

And regarding the forum discussion you posted, did you purposely missed up aco32's post?!......
There's always risk involved. The point is how comfortable are you with the risk thus ppl "calculates" risk and conclude their own risk appetite.

Seeing your style saying gambling is good....kewl; I'll give you one point in Gambling: Black Jack's calculated risk is the lowest as you could actually control your outcome; that is if you're one to one against the dealer. But if the table got more than one player, your risk of losing increases. By the way, odds in casinos are already against players from the start.

Please don't mix it together as I see there are two different case in previous discussion as far as I can see.

One is property investment 'scam' while the one is talking of some legitimate land investment. Those 'scam' are not really invest in property, they are money game only, while legitimate property investment does invest in real properties.
So please separate out, don't mix bag 2 together to discuss.

We come here to have proper discussion, please post some contructive idea or opinion, don't need to flame on each other.

Cheers.

Anyway, its just my 2cents. decision is still up to topic starter.
I rather invest in something i actually see. not a thin a paper saying i own that thing/land. What if the shop closes? What if there's something wrong with the paper details/desc?

I like to gamble BIG/SMALL. Percent of wining is not 50%. because three ones, 2s, 3s, and so forth doesnt count. so chances of wining is slim down to 44% or so.

KUDOS to those profitted from Walton. WHIPPEEE !! Way to go !! Invest more la!
