Investor’s Corner

Investabroad Properties offer a range of investment opportunities to suit all requirements and budgets, from the renting out of a single property for part of the year to the establishment of a substantial portfolio of investment properties and on to development participation and shareholding.

The examples given below apply to the coasts of Southern Spain. Investments in the islands and other countries is also available although not all the examples will be appropriate in every location.

  • Buy to Let

    Specific investment purchase with the emphasis on renting to holiday makers, golfers, etc. Working hard to maximise the number of weeks which produce income through the client’s own efforts and those of a letting and management company will maximise the rental potential and net return available.

  • Buy for Capital Growth

    Buying off plan on an early development phase is aimed at maximising capital appreciation during the period of construction - normally 18-24 months. During the last 3 years, clients have made capital gains of up to 40% by the time of completion. Many choose to sell at that time and reinvest, creating a continuous and increasing capital appreciation loop.

  • Combine Rental Return with Capital Growth

    Inevitably many purchases will result in an excellent and financially rewarding combination of rental return and capital growth. If a property is retained for renting, the optimum time to sell and reinvest may be about 3 years after completion.

  • Build a Portfolio

    Buy 1 or 2 properties each year for, say, 5 years. By selling on at the most appropriate times and reinvesting in replacement and additional properties, the size of the portfolio will increase steadily.

  • Bulk Purchase

    The wealthier investor should create an instant portfolio, buying from 3-10 or more properties together. This may produce a significant discount if most or all involve the same developer.

  • Syndicate Purchase

    Take advantage of increased buying power by forming or joining a syndicate of serious investors.

  • Club Purchase

    A financially sound sports or social club or other type of association may well find property investment abroad considerably more rewarding than a UK deposit account. Weeks can be retained as prizes for winners of competitions, special performance, etc..

  • Corporate Purchase

    Overseas property is an ideal vehicle for company or corporate investment. From the portfolio, consider retaining one property for an employee reward holiday scheme.

  • Commercial Investment

    Buy a retail unit or invest in all or part of a commercial zone. Commercial investment opportunities such as shopping centres, leisure facilities or hotels are highly individual and require sound professional advice - available through Investabroad Properties.

  • Development Participation

    The ultimate, most rewarding and interesting investment opportunity for the serious investor or syndicate. Become a shareholder in a development project and participate in the development profit. Different levels of entry and exit may be available, affecting both the eventual profit and the risk element.

    Opportunities will range from a relatively small residential development to a major urbanisation which may include a golf course, hotels, leisure centres and commercial zones. This form of investment is capable of producing a substantial return on capital, whilst the investor can enjoy the added interest of being involved in a project from start to finish.
