1st Global Financial Corporation Enters Into Agreement to Sell Its 100 Acres in Desert Hot Springs for $1.5 Million Generating a $500,000 Profit

LAS VEGAS, Oct. 24, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — 1st Global Financial Corporation FGBF is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement to sell its Desert Hot Springs (DHS) property for $1,500,000 plus existing property taxes. The Company acquired the property in July of this year for the purchase price of $1,000,000 plus property taxes.

The property is being sold to a company that will develop the site for a renewable energy project. The benefit of this property is that you can deploy either solar panels and/or wind turbines to generate electricity. The site is fairly level, has easy street access, and is close to major electrical power lines which make the property ideal for connecting to the electrical power grid.

John Bannister, President of FGBF, stated, “We are pleased that our first acquisition is being sold within less than 6 months from date of acquisition for a $500,000 profit to the Company. We are anticipating that future acquisitions will be profitable for the Company. As stated in our most recent press release, the Company announced it has proof of funds of One Billion Euro to Purchase Assets and will soon be making announcements regarding new acquisitions.”

“This is a very exciting event for the Company. We are executing our business plan and on this DHS investment, we have actually turned a 150% profit on capital, based on an annualized rate of return,” concluded Mr. Banister.
