What Is EcoVest Capital?

A conservation easement can be applied for to permanently limit the use of a particular plot of land for development purposes. This is to preserve the land for future generations and is a legally binding agreement. However, what some firms like EcoVest Capital has done is to find an appraiser who declares that the land has huge developmental value and potential and as a result, is worth much more than its purchase price. Stakes are then sold to investors and huge tax deductions are obtained because the land is under a conservation easement. According to the Justice Department, EcoVest Capital has been involved in 51 conservation easement deals since 2009 and has generated $1.7 billion in tax deductions.

Proving EcoVest Capital Losses

If you have invested in conservation easement deals from EcoVest Capital, you may have been misguidedly persuaded or pressurized to do so by your broker. Conservation easement deals are private placements, and although the responsibility to conduct due diligence always lies on the broker, it is doubly important in private placements as little to no public information is available. Whether deliberate or unintentional, your broker’s failure to conduct due diligence could be the reason you invested in EcoVest Capital conservation easement deals and suffered an unmitigated loss. If so, you have legal recourse to recover your losses. All investments recommended to you should be suitable for your age, risk tolerance, financial goals, and investment profile.
