New Mashmo website, just for your convenience!

Our new Mashmo website www.mashmolit.com ( lit = Land Investment Trust) is our early Christmas present, just for your convenience!

We apologize that of late our old site (www.mashmolit.co.zw) had been continuously on and off the internet, and we could

not do much, what with the project not administered within?

Prepared by our Marketing and Public Relations staff, the new site includes the company constitution, gallery and will frequently carry news features.

Apart from being simple and up to international standard, it also carries links to our Twitter  , Facebook and Google Blog accounts.

Thank you for your patience.

Once again, Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year!

Of illegal settlements and relocations

An illegal settlement in Harare

It unfortunate in Zimbabwe and elsewhere 'houses and wealth' are scarcely inherited from parents, contrary to what Proverbs 19 verse 14 says should be the trend.

What if after personally painstakingly investing so much into your dream-house, authorities inform that you made developments on an illegal settlement?

The ink to news that President Robert Mugabe ordered off settlers at an illegal settlement near Harare Airport is still wet. Imagine, owners had invested thousands of dollars into their properties, and suddenly they have to relocate to some farm near Waterfalls.

That is one of the reasons Mashmo Land Investment (Pvt) Ltd prefers dealing with land that is under its name, as well as selling houses in the stead of residential stands.

Ownership of land is so crucial to the extent that it almost defines and separates so-called land barons from professionals.

One of the reasons the company can stand up six-feet tall among the others, is that we own our land, and are the ones who develop and construct the houses using about 50 percent if not more of our resources.

Cheap is sometimes expensive.

Make informed choices especially this Christmas!
