Whether you're looking at property for rental or capital growth, land investments or alternative venture strategies, there are a number of fundamental issues and questions to consider before purchase.

Does the agent offer an attractive and advantageous financial package?

Emerging Property offer a fully-managed, low capital outlay package with finance in place to ensure your choice of overseas property is as trouble free as possible. We only partner with reputable, verified developers and management companies. For example, our current investment packages in Istanbul can be invested into for as little as 10k, with a 75% loan to value mortgage for EU purchasers. We only recommend investments where rental incomes cover or exceed finance and running costs.

Which emerging overseas property markets should prospective buyer look at?

We would recommend looking at countries with high economic growth, steady political conditions and burgeoning housing markets with an expanding middle-class. Not only do these provide the conditions for maximum capital growth, but also ensure strong demand for your investment if you choose to resell.

Brazil is an excellent example of such an investors economy. Investments in all sectors have soared in the last decade due to growth rates in excess of 5% and the expanding middle-class are in increasing need of high-quality accommodation (Growth was 7.5% in 2010. Reuters, March 2011).

How should a property investor decide on the right location/resort?

There are many things to consider when considering the location of your overseas investment. Obviously infrastructure is of vital importance, as is location in key tourist hotspots, distance from airports, beaches, etc. All these are vital to providing the perfect location and help promote capital growth, increase rental values and resale price. Buying investment properties needn't be difficult in this respect though. Emerging Property source the best locations and resorts in order to optimise capital gains for our clients. A superb instance of the types of prime location we source is our investment at Residence Le Six - Cannes.

What about alternative and land investments overseas?

Land is a simple, lower risk asset class investment, which requires very little active involvement on the part of the buyer. Savvy buyers see investment in land as an essential, high-yield part of their portfolios, especially land that is offered below independent market valuation. Similarly sustainable alternative investments, such as our Sri Lankan Teak Plantation investment, rival overseas investment property in terms of ROI, while offering advantages like full-management, the security of a UK based contract and environmental sustainability.

Property investors are faced with a huge choice of investment property companies to choose from. Even seasoned investors can find themselves overwhelmed at the sheer scale of the task of buying property overseas.

At Emerging Property, we aim to make the experience of investing in property a smooth and worry-free process, sourcing the best investment properties from emerging markets worldwide.

'Informed Investing' is at the core of what we do. Our property specialists guide clients through the entire process, meeting their specific investment needs in order to ensure the best quality of service and lowest-risk, highest possible returns on client investments.

When looking at property for sale abroad, many clients are often looking in places where the economic conditions aren't favourable. We source property after thorough research into every avenue of the buying process, with a focus on political stability, and both historical and projected growth forecasts for both property and the wider economy. This means we can ensure premium capital growth, but at much lower risks.
