Opportunties

- Canadian Real Estate
- US Real Estate
- Retirement Centres (US)

Terra Genex’s projects are financed through its 100 private and institutional investor group base. This group provides the necessary project equity and covers the development costs.
For the first time, First Nation and Indigenous groups are being provided with an opportunity to invest alongside this group.
All projects are invested through a new Limited Partnership structure and are guided by a Prospectus (Business Plan) with all investment funds held in trust through independent legal support (Top 5 law firm).
Over the past 5 years, their projects have generated annual returns of 18% – 22%. Investors have seen stable cash yields, lower exposure to public market conditions and inflation. Additionally, these investments allow for a more diversified investment portfolio.
Each project has a predetermined exit strategy and returns are realized through the sale of investors partnership units. Most projects have a timeline of 3-5 years.
