Obelisk Client’s Feature in ‘A Place in the Sun’ magazine
Obelisk clients, Alan and Tracy Roberts report to ‘A Place in the Sun magazine’ on why they invest in off-plan property with Obelisk.
When Alan Roberts found himself with capital to invest after selling some local property, buying overseas wasn’t an automatic choice – in fact, he was terrified!
But the 55-year-old garage proprietor from Warrington, Cheshire, did some research and came to the conclusion that overseas property offered the best return on investment.
“I considered going into buy-to-let in this country (UK), but was concerned about continued good returns. I think the recent sub-prime crisis shows that my fears were well-founded.”
So Alan took his courage in his hands and looked for opportunities abroad, and was pleased to find a company to take the sweat out of the process by finding the best, safest deals, sorting out instalments, and helping with lawyers.
Alan and his wife, Tracy, now have an ever-expanding portfolio around the world, and buying property abroad has become a real obsession. “You get very sentimental about the places you invest in – it becomes personal.”
Fascinated by the dizzying variety of deals, financing opportunities, and markets that are coming his way. He already has off-plan property going up in Cyprus and Romania, and his latest property in Natal, Brazil.
That’s why Alan is going through a large company. Obelisk, who organise the deals. But wouldn’t it have been cheaper to find his own house abroad and cut out the middleman?
“Off-plan offers a far better return. You’re getting in early so it’s cheaper, you can pay in instalments and you can see the value shooting up while it’s built. Plus, these properties are like our babies, we love seeing them growing up.”
They also see their properties as a safer investment for their future than merely paying into a pension – “especially with the way financial institutions are looking now,” says Alan.
