What is main difference between Donation and Real Estate option?

National Economic Fund is a public charity and the investment amount is donated to the sugar industry foundation (charity), is non-refundable by the Government. With real estate option, it is bit expensive, but investment is recoverable (real estate can be sold after 5yrs). As of new rules from 2012, the next buyer will qualify for citizenship. Both real estate and Donation takes the same approval time.
