This prospectus provides an overview of the Simcoe Green Homes investment opportunity to build sustainable "ecovillages" comprised of energy efficient homes. The executive summary outlines plans to purchase land and develop 10-15 home communities featuring near net-zero homes, community gardens, electric vehicles, and accessory units. This is an impact investment seeking funds from investors interested in both financial returns and positive social/environmental impacts. Investors will receive a pro-rata share of profits from home sales when each ecovillage project is completed, estimated at 12-15 months. The prospectus details the team's experience and vision to meet the growing demand for affordable yet environmentally friendly neighborhoods.BPA Residential
