Frequently Asked Questions
Q: WHEN WILL I RECEIVE MY FIRST ANNUAL RETURNS?A: Our fiscal year is from July to June. The annual payout is processed and paid to investors by July 31st as per the contract.
Q: HOW LONG DOES THE TITLING PROCESS TAKE?A: The titling process takes about 18 to 24 months from receiving your signed purchase contract. A Paraguayan notary authorized to deal with foreign embassies will notarize your contract. We then apply to the land registry to transfer the lot into your or your company's name. We’ll send you the original deeds, land registry extract, and other ownership documents.
Q: CAN I LIQUIDATE MY INVESTMENT AT ANY TIME?A: Yes. Your investment and titled deed of land is fully transferrable. You can sell or transfer your lots to others at any time. However, your farm management contract must remain in force for its full term to maintain continuity and the high standards of the farm. The investment is comparatively flexible. The value of a lot naturally increases as a hard asset and varies depending on how long the trees have been producing fruits.
Q: WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE COMPLETED PRODUCTION LIFETIME CYCLE?A: The lifetime of the persimmon trees is about 24 years, and they'll need to be replaced at the end of your 20-year farm management agreement (the agreement is for 20 years because most trees have been growing for 4 years). After completing your initial farm management contract for this term, you can renew for another term. Alternatively, you can sell your lot to another investor at that stage.
Q: WHAT ABOUT TAXATION?A: The management company provides a statement of the annual costs and the payout in July. As part of our administrative services to our investors, we will process and pay the Paraguayan income tax on the sale of your produce on your behalf (15%) and you will receive a net income payout. We will send the Tax Payment Confirmation to you in December. Paraguay doesn't have relevant double taxation agreements with any European countries or the US. Q: CAN THIS INVESTMENT BE FUNDED BY AN IRA (US CUSTOMERS)?A: Yes, you can fund this investment through a self-directed IRA. Q: CAN THIS INVESTMENT BE USED TO APPLY FOR PARAGUAYAN RESIDENCY?A: Paraguay is a very attractive option for immigration to South America. The country offers an affordable cost of living, a stable economy and one of the most politically stable countries in the region. A Temporary Residence Visa program is available; however, the Permanent Visa is available after 2 years.
