If Agriculture Land and Timber are such Good Investments…
Why Haven’t I Heard about them from my Stockbroker or Financial Advisor?
The Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) and the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD) prohibit most Stockbrokers and Financial Advisors from selling Land or Timber.
If a Product like Land or Timber is not on the Approved List of a Broker-Dealer and properly registered with the SEC and the NASD, it cannot be sold by a Registered Representative working for that firm. If a Registered Rep sells a product not on his broker’s approved list, it is called “Selling Away”, and he may be severely fined, lose his Securities License, and possibly be imprisoned.
In addition, Broker-Dealers and Registered Reps do not want money available for THEIR products to dwindle, because clients buy investments not offered by them.
I support every investor having a trusted group of Advisors, including tax, legal and financial. However, I ardently encourage each investor to take the responsibility for the outcome of his investment portfolio, and not leave it to a stockbroker, money manager or financial advisor who is not at risk if an investment becomes worthless or insolvent.
Timber grows through EVERY falling market; including the timber market. But unlike stocks and bonds, timber has increased in value during every 8-year period since 1977, when a buyer used our unique “Class-Jump Buying Strategy”.
This little-known timber buying strategy has generated profits from investment portfolios because buying the right class of timber at the right stage of a forest, will allow timber to grow into the next, more valuable class of timber within an 8-year period. Thereby rewarding the owner biological growth at 10% or more per year, and with big profits at times when timber prices go down along with the stock market!
Buying the right stage of a forest is like buying one pound of silver and putting it in your safe. Then 8-years later going to your safe and finding out you now have three pounds. But your Silver has turned into Gold! Even if the Gold price per ounce is down, the lowest Gold price has never been below the highest Silver price!
Timberland, like every investment, has risk. These risks include fire, insects, disease and weather. However, unlike a Registered Security, you can NEVER lose all your investment. Because, your timber can be destroyed, and you will still have your land; and the ability to re-grow your forest.
If you want to have Peace of Mind concerning a portion of your investment portfolio by avoiding “Market Risk” associated with the stock and bond market, give Brown Land & Timber Company a call, and we will be happy to show you how to protect your capital with land, and grow more money with timber.
