A Proposal for Legacy & Stewardship

Dear [Seller Name],

We are writing to you not as traditional developers, but as stewards. We understand that [Property Name] is not just a piece of land; it is a legacy. It holds history, memory, and potential.

At The Maker's Stay, our mission is to regenerate the land and honor the craftsmanship of the past. We are building a sanctuary where people come to reconnect with nature, learn skilled trades, and find rest. We are not here to bulldoze history; we are here to breathe new life into it.

Our goal is to structure a purchase that honors the value you have built while ensuring this property remains a protected, thriving asset for generations to come. We believe the following proposal creates a true "Win-Win" scenario.

Ideal for sellers with favorable existing financing who want a quick, low-friction transfer of responsibility.

Our Commitment to You

✓ Certainty of Closing: We are backed by a capital stack specifically designed for historic regeneration.
✓ Legacy Protection: We pledge to maintain the integrity of the main structures and the land's character.

"We hope to be the custodians who carry this property's story forward."
