[QUOTE="holwellcourtfarm, post: 8151543, member: 42914"] Because they don't WANT to own land, except short term to build on it and sell it at a huge profit. Their business model is to make the money and move on. It's why they don't retain ownership of the roads and infrastructure they create, they are only seen as an unavoidable liability to be unloaded onto anyone they can, ideally the local authority. If all else fails they set up a shell company to dump them into and then walk away from it (effectively what all "management companies" are). Hence my questions above; are they setting up a "trust fund" to make the annual payments or what? I suspect so hence their upper limit on RPI or else they'd have to put more money in just in case inflation went wild.... [/QUOTE]
