Please read some more about the forestry visa option, since it seems that you are missing the main point of investing--you get a return on your money!! Consider it a long-term form of investing; returns are estimated around 15%-25% after 20 years,
when they start paying back the investment plus a profit.
Any withdrawl of the investment by selling the land will result in lesser gains and loss of unrealized profit from the harvest of the timber after 20 years. So think of it as a good tool for estate planning (or, in my case, retirement planning.)
The following sites are commercial enterprises, so as with all investments, read the fine print, consult a lawyer unaffiliated with the company, and be prepared to take a risk.

These are just two of a number of companies, a quick google search will yield quite a few more, I'm sure. The last three are info sites on the visa process, requirements and benefits. Have fun!
Cheers.
