BrownGround.Net is the most comprehensive user driven interface for the Brownfields/Value-Add/Destabilized Property Transaction Industry. This site was developed for users to manage their own content and promote various assets/jobs/conferences pertaining to this particular industry.
As it relates to “Real Property” in this industry, more often than not the property itself carries “liability” due to realized or perceived environmental effect. It has been our observation that property owners may feel there are only a few ways to side-step the liability.
These ways include but are not limited to 1) Passing on the problem to their kids through inheritance 2) Telling on themselves and get the state DEQ to give them a break through incentive programs 3) Raising capital to “clean up” the property and hope to sell it for fair market value OR 4) Selling it for less than market value thereby transferring liability to a bona fide prospective purchaser, placing money in their pockets and shifting responsibility for cleanup to the purchasing party(This is where BrownGround.Net is very valuable).
In this way unsophisticated users (Such as the guy or gal that inherits a gas station from their parents) and the sophisticated user, (Professionals that create value through purchasing, remediating and redeveloping the concern) have a one stop web service opportunity whereby intent, product and contact info can be exchanged anonymously between two parties. This way there is no worry about backlash from regulatory agencies and the property owner with limited knowledge can find resources and/or buyers to relieve them of their problem.
By creating a user driven interface, viewers can find anything they want with regards to resources to help them to transact their property, sale/lease equipment, find a job and/or promote a conference. We believe that transaction management in this particular field is a “win/win” for everyone. We are preserving green space by redeveloping existing structures, creating cash flow for investors, taking dilapidated properties (community eye sores) and placing them back into commerce.
