Landowners
Options for Your Land
A more certain and secure financial future
Owning land carries uncertainty, from weather and policy to shifting markets. Renewable-energy leases can be attractive, yet projects also bring risk, cancellation or delay, counterparty performance, and the real value of payments over time. Telios gives landowners clear choices: convert a long stream of lease payments into an upfront lump sum, keep the land and receive an advance on the lease, or sell the land outright at an agreed price. Contracts are transparent, inflation and end-of-term responsibilities are defined, and a single professional counterparty replaces multiple moving parts.
Landowners
What this means for you
Exchanging uncertain future payments for capital now reduces risk and puts you in control, enabling confident planning for the long term.
Capital today
To meet priorities or reinvest.
Lower exposure
To developer or project risk.
Your choice of title
Options to keep or sell title.
Clear terms
Clear decommissioning and hand-back provisions.
1
Interest and inflation
Volatile rates and inflation affect the real value of future rent. Converting a long stream of payments into capital today puts you in control. You can choose to invest, reduce debt, or hold cash, and where suitable we can structure CPI-linked terms to help protect real value.
2
Flexibility
Choose the option that fits your plans. Sell the land, receive an upfront lease payment while keeping title, or finance only a portion. Keep existing use rights where possible, for example agriculture or grazing alongside infrastructure.
3
Risk mitigation
Projects can be delayed, curtailed, or cancelled, and counterparties can change. Taking a lump sum reduces exposure to operational and counterparty risk by converting uncertain future payments into cash you control today.
4
Reinvestment opportunities
Cash is simpler to distribute than a multi-decade lease. Upfront proceeds can help equalize inheritances and reduce administrative burden, while clear documents set expectations for hand-back and decommissioning.
5
Reduce your income taxes
Depending on local law, the tax treatment of a sale or upfront lease payment can differ from recurring rent. Telios structures transactions with local counsel to be tax-efficient. Always consult your tax, legal, and accounting advisors before proceeding.
