Terms & Conditions for Share Purchases

Cooling-Off Period

  • All investors are entitled to a 24-hour cooling-off period from the time of payment.

  • If you cancel within this period:

    • No administrative fees will apply.

    • Only transfer fees charged by banks or digital payment providers will be deducted.

    • A 25% deduction from the invested amount as a cancellation fine.

    • Applicable transfer fees for processing refunds.

Return on Investment (ROI)

  • Our model is designed to provide investors with an annual return of up to 5%, with 99.9% confidence in delivery.

  • ROI is calculated annually and communicated via email to investors.

  • The Forest Retreat Hotel is targeting full project completion by the end of 2031.

  • ROI may vary depending on occupancy rates, as returns are linked to actual hotel performance.

  • Investors have the option to redeem yearly lease and maintenance costs from their ROI instead of paying them separately.

Payment Terms

  • All investments are made as a one-time yearly payment in USD ($).

  • ROI details and financial updates will be provided to investors at the end of each year.

Lease Agreement

  • Each investment is secured under a 100-year lease agreement.

  • Investors acknowledge that their investment entitles them to financial returns but does not constitute ownership of physical property.

Investors will initially participate under a Lease Hold Agreement, secured by a 100-year lease. However, investors also have the opportunity to transition into a Freehold Apartment Ownership, representing a tangible and physical asset.

After maintaining Whole Share investment status for three consecutive years as a loyal investor, you may be considered for Freehold Partnership. This allows you to convert your leasehold into a full freehold agreement.

Please note:

  • Any costs associated with land or building registration will be added to the final purchase price.

  • The freehold purchase will be registered under your name at the official registry office.

  • If investors choose to purchase under the Freehold scheme after three years, the purchase price will be based on the actual current market value at that time.

  • Investments already made under the shares plan will not be deducted or offset from the freehold purchase price.

Refund Policy

  • Funds are securely allocated to the hotel project.

  • Refunds, if requested, will be processed according to the above cooling-off period and cancellation policy.
