This will speed up the process of planning how the land would be used without having to go through complex paperwork.

Buy-to-let funding products

Offa also has buy-to-let services that allows customers to purchase a portion of property co-owned with the platform and pay rent on them, while being free to sublet it. This option is cool to let new customers become landlord over time without having to make a huge down-payment one time.

I think we will have to research about the property financing options we have here if any. I think the housing crisis is everywhere and projects like this will go a long way in addressing the issue. I wish it covers us.
