Over the past years, a growing number of our clients have been investing in foreign real-estate to make quick capital gains. The most popular way of doing this has been to buy property 'Off-Plan' at a discount to the current market price.

This is certainly one strategy that can be employed and using this, we can show clients how they can make large capital gains in 18-24 month periods, however, we feel that by only employing this strategy, many clients are missing out on much larger, longer term benefits of overseas property ownership.



High Yield
We saw that by choosing high-yield, high quality properties in growth areas where there is a high rental demand, it would be possible for our clients to build significant property portfolios. Rather than adopting a 'buy and sell' mentality, we can show our investors why in the longer term the rewards for 'buy-to-let' are far greater.



Rental Income
In many northern European property markets, 'buy-to-let' property investors may struggle to find properties that make economic sense. In simple terms, they are trying to find property where the expected rents cover the INTEREST ONLY MORTGAGE payments by 130%. We can show our investor clients properties in countries where the REPAYMENT MORTGAGE amount is covered.



Rental Guarantees
For the ultra-cautious, we can even show new build, high specification apartments and villas with rental guarantees (underwritten by banks) that the REPAYMENT MORTGAGE will be fully covered, all you have to do is let the developer use the property for a specified period per year sometimes just 6 or 7 months. The property is yours to enjoy or rent out as you see fit for the other months. However, these guarantees are becoming harder to find as more investors enter the market.

In some northern European property markets, buy-to-let investors sometimes cannot release the equity from their properties because of falling rental yields. We can show our clients properties where the rental yields are enough to cover equity release of twice the purchase value. As a minimum, we want investment property to have rental yields capable of supporting equity release of the entire original investment + 10% to allow the funds to be used for further portfolio growth in the future.

In addition, all our investment properties are high quality (many are new-build ), in prime locations and in areas of high annual residential property price growth (15-30%). This is essential to facilitate equity release for future portfolio expansion. The areas we target for pure investment property purchase change regularly and as we are not restricted to just one Country or specific area we are able to follow trends and changes in the markets.

A current positive change to a property market is the Americas Cup visiting Spain in 2007 or the 2014 winter Olympic bid by Bulgaria; contact us to discuss these in more detail.
