Business plan: I must buy this piece of land

in business •  7 years ago  (edited)

This idea has been harassing my mind for the last 12 months and I can't get rid of it.

It is about just one little business step but it requires a lot of money, so I'm trying to convince some people (as my grandma) to help me out with some investments.

There is piece of land that inspires me for many things but now stands there for nothing. It is just across the road from my house and 50 meters far from the beach. Now, when the beach started to look as proper beach, it became attractive location, but is is mostly used as parking for those who were lucky and came on the beach early in the morning to catch the place in shade of those pines.

The whole terrain is not larger than 400 square meters.

It is completely covered with pines and it is private property. That's very important since all land around is considered as martime domain. I spoke to the owner and he is an old man, his children are not interested in that land, so he is willing to sell it to me for 18 000€. It is not allowed to build concrete houses there, but I have some other ideas. It is allowed to place prefabricated objects with only ground floor. Since tourism is going very well here and this beach became popular, i plan to place there few those prefabricated houses that you can buy for 25 000€ each if they were completely new.

But just nearby, we have tourist village Solaris that is full of those houses and sells them every four years for half of the price (12 500€) and buys new ones. So if I had enough money, I could buy two of these prefabricated houses for the beginning, later maybe two more.

It would be very nice and comfortable camp for tourists.

In village of Solaris everything is too expensive and they rent those houses for 250€ per day. In my neighborhood, everything is much cheaper than there and I would rent those houses for not more than 150€ per day. Tourist season last for 50 days here and let's assume that those houses are full whole time so I would earn 15 000€ in the first season. I need at least 45 000€ on the beginning that includes the land and two those 4 years old prefabricated houses with whole documentation.

It would take another three years to earn enough to return funds to my investors and then I plan to buy two more of those prefabricated houses. Each of them has capacity for 5-6 people. Since I only have those ideas and NOT the money and my grandma is the richest person I know, I'm trying to convince her to invest. Despite her greediness and the fact that she is so stingy like you only can imagine, I think that I'm doing fine in this "convincing" project. I just told her that if we don't take that land, someone else will. She promised to think about it!

Thank you!

Well, here's an upvote from a poor minnow that brings you 1 cent closer to making this dream come true. I wish you realize this dream of yours :D

Thank you so much! One step closer ;)

perfect land you must buy @dumar022

I plan, I must, I have to!

Great @dumar022 goodluck 😃

As soon as I saw picture i knew it was Croatia :D something about cars, flora and karst gave it away.
Good luck and I hope you manage to buy and ofc blog about your project.
Can't wait for updates!

Thank you for a nice comment and for recognizing Croatia!

Dude, I love your idea. Also a great place for a snack shack. Any food vending in the area? I want in on this but I'm half a earth away. Best wishes my good friend.

Food places are all around so it wouldn't be so wise to open another one. Same with cocktails bars and coffee bars. But we have lack of camps. That's why I think that this could be success! Thank you my friend

Nagovori bakicu, ovo je odlična investicija! Jedino turizam raste! Good luck :))

Thank you! Oće baba oće!

It sounds a great investment opportunity.. As long as you do your research and all is well. It look like a plan

There has to be a plan, finally! I can't stand forever on the same spot! Thank you for resteeming this!

If you aren't allowed to build on it, what about plumbing/electricity ?

Plumbing and electricity allowed, sewer also. I can't build brick/concrete houses. Even wooden houses are allowed if they were smaller than 40 squares and with only ground floor

To me it looks like the perfect place for a cocktail bar/ SUP rental :)
I think real estate is always worth an investment, anyways ...

How's pollux.one doing ? Is he all fjaka ?

@pollux.one is doing great, we received "big hello" from you!;)
He uses the word "fjaka" very often in interaction with Croats

Hmm... nice little piece of real estate. I won't mind having it. :-)

that's my way of thinking ;)

I hope it works out for you. However, we have a saying here in the US, :Never mix business with friends or family". It can get tricky.

It is impossible to avoid that here

Here is my 100% vote to get you closer to your dream. I was wondering where it is, but I saw in the comments. Once you have it ready you could recruit customers, who know, via steemit, maybe they will pay you steem or steem dollars ... :)

Of I fulfill this dream, I promised to organize free steem camp for those who can't afford to go on steemfests. Thank you!
