As the stock markets look gloomy and the leading US investment banks crumble, is property proving to be the safest bet?
Buy-to-let property has become something of a gold mine for many over the recent years, and as the financial markets begin to fail, it is highly likely that we will see the property market attracting higher levels of investors.
Capital growth has attracted many throughout the property industry, as hot-spots both in the UK and overseas witness price growth. In times where purchases may be considered as ‘less than ideal’ in terms of rentals, rewarding appreciation has saved the day. What now stands out is that if property is purchased for the long term, you can generally see it as security for the future.
In our view it depends on your aim for investment. For us, property investment is to be viewed with a medium to long-term time frame in mind. We believe the only reliable long-term investment that could act as a pension is still property.
We believe you should always stick to the fundamentals of buying in an area with a great story of long-term growth and where there is still a high level of local affordability. This is measured by the properties not being a high multiple of local earnings. Investors should also purchase in areas where demand for property is set to increase into the future. Finally you should ensure there is a good demand for home ownership, providing you with a viable exit strategy.
The world’s most successful property investors prefer to buy when the market is not 'hot' allowing them to purchase property at more reasonable prices.
The famous saying 'You make your money when you buy a property' is more true now than ever.
In the current economic climate we have excellent buying opportunities for the long-term. The wise investors will make some of the best purchases in their career over the near future.
