The principals of Juniper Financial have over 25 years of property acquisition and management experience. Just like precious metals the good lord ain't making and more land, well not on this planet anyway, and like silver a disturbing amount of high quality of farm land is destroyed each year due to over use, tree clearing and poor land management.
Whilst we believe precious metals represent a more profitable, and a definitely more liquid investment, in these troubled times we also recognize that clients need diversity in their portfolio. To this end we can assist in the purchase and management of quality rural land, a physical investment that cannot be created by bankers.
We recommend quality Australian freehold farmland in long established locations that do not have any significant structures, such as homesteads, to ensure capital is deployed efficiently and can produce the highest return.
We can arrange for the purchase of land for purely capital appreciation or manage the land to produce a modest return via leasing to croppers or livestock producers.
If you are interested in our services or simply would like to know more please contact us via email or fill in the contact form on our contact page.
Why Australia?
Australia is one of the few countries in the world that allows non-residents to purchase freehold title to farmland. Australia also has high quality farmland close to modern amenities and is reasonably priced by world standards.
