About Us
Frontlands is revolutionizing how owners of US-based mineral, water, timber, solar, and similar rights access the value of their assets without the need to sell. Just as a home equity loan unlocks the value of a home, we provide property interest owners with liquidity options that allow them to retain full ownership of their rights. Our mission is to help these owners, many of whom face financial challenges, leverage their assets in a way that provides them with flexibility, financial security, and long-term benefits, all while maintaining control of their valuable property interests.
We’re backed by top-tier investors and founded by serial entrepreneurs with multiple successful exits. Our goal is to build something impactful in a multi-billion dollar, untapped market.
