Legacy Education Alliance, Inc. Announces New UK Property Investment
Company Puts into Practice What It Teaches Its Students
CAPE CORAL, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Legacy Education Alliance, Inc. (OTCQB: LEAI) (www.legacyeducationalliance.com), a leading international provider of practical, high-quality, and value-based educational training on the topics of personal finance, entrepreneurship, real estate, and financial markets investing strategies and techniques, announced today that it had closed on two residential properties in the United Kingdom as part of its strategy of building its business, real estate investment and development portfolio. To that end, the company has established separate subsidiaries in the UK and the USA to focus solely on its real estate investment and development activities.
“LEAI is always looking for ways to expand its business and add value,” said Anthony Humpage, LEAI’s Chief Executive Officer. “We have decided to leverage what we teach as another means to expand our business.” Humpage added: “Additionally, we can use our real estate and property ventures as illustrative teaching tools to enhance our students’ experiences and outcomes.”
Iain Edwards, LEAI’s UK-based Senior Vice President added, “With the aim of supplementing the UK seminar business through its portfolio’s operations, we are excited to have begun staffing and starting the pipeline of opportunities for this new business venture.”
The properties acquired by the Company include two rental-income flats in Birmingham, West Midlands, which is the second largest city in the UK. In addition to providing rental income to the Company, these and other acquired properties will be used as case studies to demonstrate various strategies and techniques taught in LEAI’s various property investing classes in the UK. In these and other ventures, the Company may also seek to sell the properties if profitable sales opportunities present themselves.
