Dangers of Conservation Easements

Are you familiar with the term “conservation easements”? This contract involves a deal between landowners and a third party with what some believe are false promises, going so far as to describe these contracts as “conservation servitudes.” As explained today on ‘Financial Rebellion,’ changes to the land’s use for the owner is all but off the table unless specified, yet for public purposes, the property can be condemned for the sake of implementing windmills or power lines, among other things. All of this for the sake of “conservation.” Don’t let lack of knowledge get in the way of financial literacy, especially when it comes to the ownership of private property. Tune in, and stay informed!
