Intro Crowd, a land investment platform, has signed up Chris Robshaw, the England rugby union player, as its brand ambassador. Robshaw will soon be featured in marketing and promotional material for the crowdfunding plaform.
Intro Crowd said that Robshaw has an interest in housing provision and supporting the right developments in the right places. Intro Crowd combines land development projects with smaller investors.
“We are extremely excited to have Chris on board, to help explain the benefits of our investment offering. Crowdfunding for residential property has proved extremely popular, but ours is the first platform to give individual investors a way of investing in strategic land,” said Gregory Baker, Intro Crowd founder and CEO.
Robshaw said he was pleased to be working with Intro Crowd and he fully supported the mission of the crowdfunding platform.
As most people understand, there is an acute housing shortage in the UK. A combination of demand and secular hurdles have limited the availability of sufficient housing. Intro Crowd was founded in 2016 seeking to take advantage of this market shortcoming by providing a valued service. Experienced investors may buy shares in a limited company that owns “strategic land”. Currently, Intro Crowd have a site at Cam, in Gloucestershire which is about to reach full investment. They will be launching several new sites for investment in the next month.
