Overseas Property Investment Deals

Our recommended overseas property investment deals - these will either be in high capital growth areas, have good yields, or be very good below market value deals.

There are some economies growing at 3-5 times the rate of the UK economy as a whole, and there are many housing markets at very early stages – with finance markets only just opening up – offering huge potential. We would always look for a combination of undervalued markets, growing economies, a stable legal and political environment, and significantly strong leverage – the rates of borrowing – available to foreign investors when choosing an overseas property investment.

Combine all these factors and several countries and cities will stand out. Having said this, just like in the UK, 2009 has seen some sudden changes in finance markets in some countries, which means you need to pay even more attention to detail when choosing your overseas property investment. It is likely we will offer less overseas deals in 2009 - mainly because some the bargains in the UK mean this is probably the best market for us right now!

We like Czech Republic - and there are some bargain basement prices in certain other countries eg USA, around Florida and in many of the other major markets!

As with any investment, and in particular overseas property investment, please do your own due diligence, and do some independent research before committing to any purchase.

Make sure you have a clear idea of the buying/selling costs and costs to finance, or sell, the property when looking at buying property overseas. Have a clear strategy and be sure any overseas property investment you make fits in with your overall strategy. It is very easy to go off track when you see what looks a fantastic deal - but be sure this fits what you are trying to achieve over the next 3-20 years. If you do this correctly you can do very well with overseas property investment.

Poland

Why Invest in Poland?

The size of Poland, and the number of major cities there means it is almost essential for any property investor to have properties in Poland in their overseas property investment portfolio.

Poland is a leader on the continent in terms of economic transformation. Since joining the European Union in 2004 the country continues to implement bold political and economic changes. The effective absorption of EU funds has meant improved infrastructure which is key for the successful implementation of large scale investments. It is simply the youth, determination and excellent qualifications of the workforce that continue to lure FDI into Poland.

Istanbul

For our latest deal in Istanbul - download at Istanbul Investment Opportunity

I have been following the progress of the Turkey property, and in particular, the Istanbul property market, for a number of years now. Istanbul is one of the fastest growing emerging markets in the world. There are clear economic reasons for continued growth in the future - and Istanbul is again an excellent option when looking at overseas property investment.

My aim was to wait until mortgages were available to foreign investors before entering the market personally. With the recent availability of 65% LTV mortgages investors can now benefit from the use of leverage in a rapidly growing economy.

Why Istanbul?

Istanbul accounts for over 40% of the Turkish economy.

Istanbul is a city with massive growth potential for the future. It is the financial capital of Turkey and is split in half by the famous Bosphorus river. Major multinational companies have relocated their workforce to Istanbul due to its strategic position as a bridge from the eastern to western world.

The demand for residential units in Istanbul is massive with a shortfall of 250,000 units per year - and this reason alone means when looking at the Turkey property market, Istanbul should be the first place to target. Land prices in recent years have grown at a tremendous rate due to the restricted availability of residential land to developers. A large number of multinational commercial developers have entered Istanbul in recent years.

The Dubai based investment group Sama Dubai made a $705 million dollar investment in commercial land in Istanbul alone. Istanbul has a buoyant rental market for mid market property, and the potential for even further capital appreciation is predicted due to the recent availability of mortgages to the local population. The opening of mortgage markets is a crucial indicator for growth in most emerging markets.

Capital appreciation forecasts

Residential values grew by 33% in 2006 and similar figures are set to continue in 2007/2008. Due to the chronic shortage of housing stock in Istanbul the demand for housing is at an all time high. The growth in capital appreciation will be further accelerated by the ready availability of mortgage products to the local market, this will make the possibility of home ownership available to a much wider population.

Spanish Distress Properties

Go to current Spanish Deals - overseas property investment deals!

Currently they have 3 properties for sale - all distress sales allowing 25-35% off the true market values. And remember with 70% mortgages based on value available with borrowing as low as 4.5% p.a. in euros, this can be equivalent of 80-95% borrowing.

Can be an excellent overseas property investment for those looking to combine a holiday home with a strong rental market for letting.

Keep an eye on your inbox, as I will be sending out details on new overseas property investment deals - I will be updating as and when I see a deal that stands out.

I will be concentrating on markets where value is good, and prices are still rising. There must be a good rental demand already, and prices must compare well in comparison to similar markets - comes down to the opportunity cost again.

Overseas property investment can be very attractive - and gives you an excuse to travel to some more exotic destinations than your traditional UK buy to let locations!
