Where to Invest in Property in 2010
By Billy | December 29, 2009
Despite a huge amount of people finding it difficult to pay bills this year, if you are fortunate enough to have some extra money, 2010 is a perfect time to invest in property. Due to property prices falling and interest rates also falling, many people have chosen to invest in property. Not only do you steer clear of the danger of the banks, but you also have the potential to get a better return on your savings.
However, getting a good return on your investment will only be successful if you entered into a good investment. To help you earn even more in 2010, here are some places that would make good investments.
Brazil:
Although Brazil isn’t the first place that comes to mind when thinking of property investment, many housing developers are beggining to look at Brazil as a sound investment. Due to it’s rapidly developing economy and sunny climates, it does look like a good place to invest in for the future. You should also remember that Brazil has recently been selected to host the 2014 World Cup and the 2016 Olympic Games which will attract millions to the country.
With property prices estimated to rise by a massive 200%, Brazil is looking like a great investment.
France:
The French property market has always been popular with property investors, particularly first time buyers. Because France was the first country to get out of recession within the European Union, it proves that they have quite a strong economy. This means that their property market has begun to make a come back. Although this is good news, it does mean that if you want to benefit from the rising prices, you’ll have to act fast to get a good return.
Switzerland:
Due to the new taxes coming into play for high earners next April, it means that Switzerland will soon become a very good investment. Because Switzerland isn’t part of the European Union, these new taxes won’t be brought in, to benefit from this, Swiss authorities have been attracting wealthy businessmen from the UK to their snowy slopes.
This attraction for many high earners makes Switzerland a very good investment. Due to more and more high earners moving out to the snowy climate, the demand for property will rocket, just like the prices.
After seeing how much potential return you could get, you may want to run off and start buying. However, before you do, make sure you know of all the costs involved such as holiday homes insurance. Having to pay for extras such as maintenance and second homes insurance doesn’t come cheap and it all eats into your return. Just make sure that your earnings you make will still cover any additional costs.
You can’t just buy a second home in Spain without Spanish house insurance.
