Land Developers Company Equity Stake For Sale in Comodoro Rivadavia, Argentina

Coastal land investment opportunity seeking strategic partners for mixed-use properties development with sustainability and growth.
Business with a mixed use- coastal investment opportunity in Patagonia. This mixed-use project will feature low-density residential development, ecotourism, resort, eco-lodges, and scientific centres. - We are ready with all permit works, design, engineering, master planning, and urban designs. - We have done only partial work on the land in the form of coast regeneration and soil leveling work. - Aim is to sell 350+230+20 = 600 properties/ clients. - Projected revenues exceeding 30M USD through sales of developed land with amenities. - Project is presented in several technical and scientific conferences. - We have a registration certificate. - We started generating revenues but are at zero at this point. The Patagonian region represents vast southernmost uninhabited lands, with iconic features ranging from the coastal arid steppes in the east to grasslands and the western Andes mountain chains. Creating conditions for human settlement that adapt to the natural elements has always been a challenge. There is, however, a need to create conditions that improve the quality of life of its inhabitants and enable integration with the geo-climatic conditions of these latitudes. The increasing difficulties in accessing resources such as energy and water, along with energy transition initiatives to reduce carbon emissions, provide an opportunity to offer a model of low-density urbanization based on concepts of sustainability and social integration. The Group S. A. , which owns lands in the south of the province, is promoting the natural geographical characteristics of the area by developing a unique concept that combines coastal residences, public areas, and spaces connected to nature, a combination still unknown on the Atlantic coast of Patagonia.
