Become a Co-Owner of Neos Village
Secure your spot in the most exciting and future-proof place to live
The moment of birth is near.
We are overjoyed that in the past two weeks members of our community followed their ‘Yes!’ and stepped forward pledging more than €2 million.
We spent several zoom sessions diving into the terms and legal agreements, exploring questions about fundraising, future ownership, development and deals to date, vision, planning, execution, future residency, conflict resolution and much more.
Feelings of trust, belonging and excitement have been growing:
“This is the most thoughtful and thought-through project my family and I have come across. Karen and Vincent make it easy to trust and we appreciate the transparency and integrity each step of the way. The community already seems to be a reflection of this.”
— Barbara, Founding Member
To answer the many questions we received, we created a comprehensive document that we call the Neos Village Funding Codex that captures everything we know and highlights what we don’t know.
Some of its sections are:
LAND, DEVELOPMENT & YOUR HOME:
Location, Land, Land Ownership, Land & Neos Village Development, Your Lot/Unit, Resources & Environment, House DesignFUNDING & FINANCIALS:
Land Acquisition, Development Costs, Ongoing Costs, ‘Neos Coin’, Your Contribution, Selling Your Unit & Value AppreciationLEGAL CONSIDERATIONS:
Legal Aspects, Risks, Security, ResidencyLIVING IN NEOS VILLAGE:
Living in Community, Living in Your Unit, Infrastructure & Amenities, Decision Making & Conflict ResolutionNEOS CENTER:
Vision, Governance, Relationship with Neos Village, Use of Neos Center facilities
Lots are going fast. Over 30 homes out of 200 have already been reserved since we launched the community call two weeks ago. Now is the time to reserve your spot.
Ranging from tiny house sites with an initial contribution of €25,000 to a contribution worth €500,000 — Neos Village is welcoming everyone.
We trust that it was always meant to be this way — it was always about creating community, new culture, a new operating system.
We've both been involved in community ideas for a while and being in the vision stage for many projects and this one is really lighting us up and we feel super engaged. There's something special about this, there’s a kind of miracle quality about it, like there's something sacred happening. So yeah, really, excited, just thank you.

Be in charge of your future well-being
Last week, whilst we were on the land with architects and builders, the whole of Portugal and Spain's power was shut down for the day.
This was another reminder of the need for projects like neos·life that create sovereignty with food, water, energy and health independence.
neos·life is committed to creating a place where our lives, our health, wellbeing and resources are in our own hands.
“I’m fully trusting you, the process, the universe to unfold all step by step… For now the base being a great plan, already a huge personal financial and time investment made by you, the risk of the Pledge being very limited and amazing potential it’s a matter of trust and knowing it’s the right thing to do.”

I'm just so impressed by all of it. I feel very lucky to have discovered this gem of this community. And the vision is just gorgeous, really, really, really happy and excited. — Barbara
It's mad what you guys have thought of. Every time you open your mouths it's like, oh, you've already thought of that, you've been down that, done that. So yeah, much appreciated and thank you very much. — Rob
You again built more trust. All the answers really showed me that you’ve been about this for years. You’ve built this not yesterday or the last twelve months but it’s deep inside you. And that’s a very moving and comforting situation. — Martin
Before we were looking at a house in France. This is so much more exciting! Every aspect that we were looking for is in this project. It's great! — Tom
I'm super impressed with everything that's been said and I'm very excited about the vision of neos·life. I feel like it's a way of living our values and our spirituality and putting it forth and that is very exciting to me. It's exactly what I'm looking for. I just want to really thank you for all the work that you've done. And yeah, I just can't wait to see what comes next. Thank you. — Vicky
I'm very moved by your capacity and how you react to all these different questions and all the ideas being thrown around. It takes so much presence to react the way you do. And the more I come to these calls, it's a steady building of trust and the vision that is being lived. — Gregory
It’s such a big endeavour that becomes clearer with every call. That’s very exciting. I’m really curious to see it unfold. — Moritz
I experienced excellent stewardship which I have rarely actually seen in this level of community processes. Thank you very much for embodying, living and role modelling how community discussions can be held and guided in such uncertain waters. — Yip
I’m really curious to see all of us on the land building the Neos Village. It's really an exciting image in my mind. And thank you very much for all the answers. I think they were very satisfying, even if there is so much to unfold during the process. Happy to be here. — Çiçi
I feel really excited after this call. I feel by attending these calls, I already expanded. I'm so grateful for you and the community because I feel it's a safe space for me and it's beautiful to see the trust and the surrender and how I feel much more connected after every call. So thank you so much. — Sandy
I'm absolutely excited! I didn't want to allow it to myself. It feels like I have to go there and put my yurt up. I'm really excited. I'm really happy. And I have the impression like I can really contribute, that my contribution is welcome and I'm so grateful for that. I see that this vision is coming down and manifesting. — Andrea
It almost feels like the next stage of dating for me, which is bringing up some questions and some aspects that feel a little bit uncomfortable. But I feel welcoming of that because it's clarifying. Just simply feels really nice to sit in this space with everyone and get to know what's important for everyone. And to be on this journey together. Thank you so much. — Lucy
Watching a community come together, watching all the people, watching alignment happen, patience and understanding, rolling up the sleeves, doing what needs to get done. There's just been so many things. It's been a miracle in my opinion. I just want to jump on with you from the heart. — Lisa
I'm just in complete awe of the amount, the sheer scale of what you're holding and what you're creating, the depths of your vision, your courage, your persistence to have got this far and to have created a group that have come together to come and meet you in this. It's incredible to watch. I'm very, very grateful to be here. I'm absolutely bought into your vision. I'm excited to contribute to whatever level we can but mostly I’m just very grateful for what you're doing, because so many people want to live in an environment like this, but very, very, very few people could come anywhere close to creating it. And so you're pioneering here in a in a way that I've not seen anybody attempt to do so. Just thank you. — Kimberley
Real deep gratitude to you both and Lisa for what you put into this so far. We've both been involved in community ideas for a while now and being in the sort of vision stage for many different projects and this one is really lighting us up and we feel super engaged. There's something special about this, there’s a kind of miracle quality about it, like there's something sacred happening. So yeah, really, excited, just thank you. — Charlie
What strikes me is it's just amazing what you have done! The scope and scale of this vision and being able to not just endeavour to put something like this together but to actually get this level of sophistication in this timeframe. It’s really something to pull off, like really, really. And the depths that you will have had to dig to in order to, and the sacrifice you will have had to make in various ways and domains, in order to pull this off to get to this moment and this group of people and this level of commitment, is absolutely extraordinary. I really do take my hat off to you. The process in and of itself of bringing this into fruition is extraordinary. — Ricky
