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 its sunny climates and quickly developing economy, it looks to be a good investment for the future. You should also remember that Brazil has chosen to host the 2014 World Cup and the 2016 Olympic Games which will attract millions of tourists.
With prices set to rise by around 200%, Brazil is looking like a brilliant investment.
France:
The French property market has always been popular with housing developers, especially first time investors. Because France was the first European country to come out of recession, it shows that they have a strong economy. This means that their property market has begun to make a comeback. 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 an increased tax rate for the very high earners in April 2010, Switzerland is looking to becoming a very good investment. Because Switzerland are not part of the EU, Swiss authorities have been attracting the wealty and rich businessmen from the UK as they won’t face more taxes in Switzerland.
This attraction for many high earners and wealthy business owners will make Switzerland a great investment. As more high earners choose to move to the snowy slopes of Switzerland, demand for luxury homes with rocket, just like the prices.
After seeing this and seeing how much you could potentially make, you may want to go and start investing. However, before you do run away and spend, make sure you know what you will have to spend on things such as insurance for holiday homes. Having to pay for essential maintenance and insurance for second homes doesn’t come cheap and can eat into your investments. Just try to make sure that any costs you have to pay will be covered by your earnings, while still making a return.
