Obelisk Market Analyst: How to Identify Property Hot Spots
Political stability is an all-important factor when assessing a country’s investment potential. For example, Kenya was a relatively attractive prospect 18 months ago, but now that has all changed. Solid political reform, good clear administration and a country’s attitude to dealing with foreign direct investment (FDI) all add to the attractiveness, and ultimately lead to a profitable environment to invest in.
Advance knowledge of any costs involved will ultimately have an effect on the overall gains and should be well researched prior to any property venture. However, favourable tax conditions, rental income, and/or the resale price of the property may greatly outweigh any initial purchasing costs.
Many Eastern European countries are benefiting from joining the EU; receiving much needed funding for infrastructure and attracting international companies. This consequently increases the national wage earning potential, lowers unemployment, as well as provides a strong local economy, strengthening the resale market.
Emerging markets over the short-term can offer opportunities that make a fast return, whereas a longer-term rental approach with a view to sell in the future offers good growing rental yields coupled with a vastly different, and generally more bullish, resale market.
The departure boards in UK airports such as Gatwick, Manchester etc. will also provide clues as to where the next hot destination will present itself. The generation of so many new air routes provided by the budget carriers at very low prices are highly desirable options for the holidaymaker. The ease and accessibility of a destination can be a deciding factor in placing countries on the ‘foreign investment map’.
