ANSWER:

Yes, as this investment is intended to sell and make profit, you must pay the zakat of these past two years by estimating how much the property was worth in the 1st year and then in the 2nd year and then you pay zakat accordingly.

Can zakat be paid irrespective of Muslims or Non-Muslims to an organisation or orphanage dealing with mentally and physically disable children and people.
