Moore Ingram Johnson & Steele, LLP has developed a specialty in conservations easements including the private placement of securities designed to maximize tax benefits to investors and conservation easements for property owners wishing to avail themselves of the tax benefits thereof.
These are excellent vehicles to raise money for large tracts of land (planned subdivisions, land bought for development, farm land) which has lost value and/or has difficulty being sold. Further, Moore Ingram Johnson & Steele, LLP has contacts and relationships with accounting firms and private wealth managers that can help raise the funds necessary for these private placements to close.
The firm provides one stop shopping for all elements of a private placement fund raise resulting in a conservation easement, including securities laws, environmental laws, tax laws, fund raising contacts, and the coordination with the land trust, the appraiser and the conservation easement baseline study and plan.
