It has an area of 9.7 hectares (24 acres) and was advertised as being for lease in April 2008 with a price of €9,000,000. In 2009 it was offered at auction but failed to sell at a top bid of A$1 million.
Eori was for many years owned by real estate firm Pacific Islands Partnership Limited, which is in turn solely owned by Tim Manning's Chaylor Investments. Chaylor investor Eric Rush held a 7 percent share in Eori specifically.[2]
In 2009, Manning and Chaylor sold the island to investor Graeme Hart.,[3] who controls the island through a 100% interest in LLC Eori Island Limited[4] via his personal investment corporation, Rank Group Ltd.[5]
