Conservation Buyer: Lessons Learned |
- Conservation-minded investors can contribute to land conservation by purchasing land and donating conservation easements.
- Tax benefits from bargain sales and/or the donation of conservation easements can be substantial enough to encourage and facilitate conservation.
- Conservation organizations can act as intermediaries between conservation- minded sellers and investors; the result will be independently owned and protected land.
- The benefits to a conservation organization from matching conservation-minded buyers and sellers can be two-fold: land is protected and little or no funds are needed for the purchase.
