World-Wide Food Crisis
Most headlines out of Nicaragua this week are regarding the food crisis. There are many reasons why there is a world-wide food crisis right now, and they are mostly political – but I won’t open that can of worms in this post. Memo to self: must remember this blog is about investment. The subject does remind me of a comment I heard recently. It went, “politics is about two things – the first is money, and…I can’t remember the second.”
Food Crisis In Nicaragua
I feel strongly that investing in foreign real estate ties an investor to that land in ways other than those that are self-serving. Fundamentally, that tie involves an ability to respond to the needs of the people on that land. That response-ability is an insurance that the investment made, like the people of that country will prosper. One won’t happen without the other. Investment supports people, people make investments grow, and in Nicaragua, both have a lot of room to grow.
Food Crisis Action Plan
One way you can insure that your investment in Nicaraguan real estate stays healthy, is to do your part and insure the people of Nicaragua stay healthy too. Here’s a short list of quality organizations to contact.
If you are considering investing in real estate in Nicaragua consider the “Community RE Fund Program” set up by Coldwell Banker in Nicaragua. According to their web site, “The REfund model encourages every participant in a real estate transaction to contribute funds at the time of closing. Investing that creates value in society and the environment while at the same time being financially profitable.” (read more)
Affiliated with the RE Fund program in Nicaragua, Dos Manos is a collection of non-profit organizations that focuses on children’s needs and education.
Unlike politics, investing in a country is about more than just one thing, today’s headlines make it easy to remember what it is. Do what you can to help with the food crisis in Nicaragua.
