Terra Nova Evergreen Land Fund I

Real estate development, minus the guesswork. The buyer signs before we build.

Invest passively in land development alongside Terra Nova. National homebuilders commit to buying the finished lots before we close on the land, so every project starts with a known buyer, a known price, and a known timeline.

What we do

Most development runs on hope. Ours runs on contracts.

America's largest homebuilders have gone "land-light." They want finished lots, not raw land sitting on their books. Terra Nova buys shovel-ready land, builds the roads and utilities, and sells the finished lots to a homebuilder who agreed to buy them before we ever closed. So a lot of the risk has been mitigated before we even start.

We target a 20% average annual return, with 10% paid as quarterly cash flow, backed by a team with a track record of outperforming traditional stocks over the long term.

As a passive investor, you get the returns of real estate development without the work. And unlike multifamily investing: no tenants, no toilets, no 2 a.m. phone calls, no property management for 5 years. Our team handles everything, and our own capital is in every deal, so we have skin in the game right alongside you.

Why this model

Three protections in place before we close on the land

Most development deals find out who's buying at the end. We find out at the start.

🤝

The buyer is committed

A national or regional homebuilder agrees to purchase the finished lots before Terra Nova acquires the land.

📋

The price and timing are set

Forward purchase agreements lock in what the builder pays for the lots and when they take them.

💰

The builder has skin in the game

Builders put up non-refundable capital, typically 10 to 15% of project costs. If a builder walks away, the deposit stays in the project and Terra Nova brings in a new buyer.

Plus: land is only acquired when it's shovel-ready, so entitlement risk sits with the builder, not your capital. And Terra Nova manages construction in-house, with on-site project managers and drone monitoring on every project.

If you know multifamily

Like a ground-up apartment deal that's 100% pre-leased before construction.

In multifamily, that never happens. In land development the way Terra Nova does it, that's where every project starts.

The upside

Two ways you get paid

A targeted 20% average annual return, delivered in two parts.

01

Quarterly cash flow

A targeted 10% annual preferred return, paid to you quarterly while your capital is invested.

02

Return at exit

When you exit, you receive your capital back plus the remainder of your return, bringing you to a targeted 20% annualized return.

* Stay in longer, keep earning. Individual projects typically run one to two years, but you choose how long your capital stays in the fund. As long as you're invested, you'll keep receiving your targeted 10% cash flow each year, paid quarterly, and you'll receive the rest of your targeted 20% annualized return whenever you exit.

How it works

Our investment process

A disciplined, six-stage approach, from sourcing the land to delivering finished lots.

01

Opportunity Sourcing

We find shovel-ready land development opportunities through our network of homebuilders, brokers, and industry partners.

02

Underwriting

Data-driven market selection and institutional-grade underwriting, with every deal measured against strict return thresholds.

03

Investment Committee

Terra Nova's acquisitions and construction leaders review every deal together before an offer goes out.

04

Builder Agreements & Close

Forward purchase agreements and non-refundable builder capital are secured before we close on the land.

05

Land Development

In-house construction management, on-site project managers, and drone monitoring help keep every project on schedule and on budget.

06

Lot Delivery & Exit

Finished lots are delivered to the homebuilder as agreed, and investors receive their capital back plus their return.

Investor questions

What passive investors ask

Who can invest?
The fund is open to accredited investors, and accredited status must be verified before you invest. On our intro call we'll walk through what that means and how verification works.
What's the minimum investment?
The minimum investment is $50,000.
What returns do you target?
We target a 20% average annualized return: a 10% preferred return paid quarterly as cash flow, plus the remainder of your return when you exit. Terra Nova has met or exceeded projected investor returns on 100% of its projects. These are targets, not guarantees. Actual results vary, and principal is at risk.
How and when do I get paid?
Your targeted 10% preferred return is paid quarterly. When you exit, you receive your capital back plus the rest of your targeted 20% annualized return. You can also leave your capital in the fund longer and keep receiving quarterly cash flow.
How long is my money invested?
Most projects run one to two years. Redemption is available after two years, subject to the fund's terms. Our investors love not having their money tied up for five years or more like a typical multifamily deal. Quicker turnaround means your capital isn't sitting on the sidelines for the better part of a decade.
How is this different from multifamily?
In a ground-up apartment deal, you build first and hope tenants show up. Here, a homebuilder has committed to buy the finished lots before we close on the land, at an agreed price and timeline. There's no lease-up, no tenants, and no property to operate.
What happens if a builder backs out?
Builders put up non-refundable capital, typically 10 to 15% of project costs, before we close. If a builder walks away, that capital stays in the project and Terra Nova brings in another homebuilder to purchase the lots.
What are the risks?
Every investment carries risk, including the loss of your entire investment. Construction can run long, costs can rise, markets can shift, and a builder can default. Returns aren't guaranteed. Read the full offering documents and consult your own advisors.
Do you still invest in multifamily?
I spent six years in multifamily and may still do a project here and there. But the Terra Nova Evergreen Land Fund is my focus, and it's what this page is all about.
