How To Still Invest In Property And Not Lose Out
Topics: leaseback property
Despite the UK property market being the way it is, there is still this pervading feeling that bricks and mortar are more secure than any other investment. As we have recently seen, those who invested in stocks and shares and financial institutions have lost out.
Those who invested in property with a view to making a quick buck have also lost out as the bottom has fallen out of the housing market. That said, those that can afford to ride out the property storm will still have an investment that is bound to reap rewards in the long run.
So, what to do if you are fortunate enough to have some cash to invest now? Stashing it under the mattress is not safe and will not bring any rewards and putting it in the bank is a little precarious at the moment. There is still a way of investing in property without risking too much - buy a property under the French leaseback scheme.
Investors from any country can buy a French leaseback property. It means they will reap tax rewards not available when purchasing a normal property and it also gives the buyer a business opportunity as well as the chance of a new life in a different country.
Properties currently on offer under the French leaseback scheme are as follows:
First up is a two bedroom apartment in the bustling second largest city of France - Marseille. Given that this area is home to many businesses, there is a constant stream of businessmen and women passing through, all in need of accommodation. With a leaseback property, you could run the place as a lettings business for the best part of the year, bringing in a tidy little income and easily covering your mortgage. The scheme would also allow you to carve out period through the year when you could use the apartment yourself for holidays.
If you’re looking for something a little more family orientated, try a three bedroom villa in Fabregues, in the south of France. With decent sized living areas set in landscaped gardens with two swimming pools and an on-site golf course, what more could you ask from an investment or future home. These properties are available to buy as second homes or under the French leaseback scheme and enjoy the wonderful warm weather typical of the south of France.
For those who prefer to holiday at ski resorts, why not have a home from home in Saint-Gervais? Just 45 minutes from Geneva, access is easy and entertainment is on tap all year round with hiking and mountain biking through the summer months as well as taking advantage of the heated swimming pool, sundecks, sauna and Turkish bath.
Of course, in the winter this place truly comes into its own as the perfect skiing destination. To get a mental picture, think Alpine chalet style buildings, log fires and knee deep snow.
For those with a true love of winter and who want guaranteed snow, leaseback property is available in Isola. This is the largest ski resort on the French Riviera with 120km of ski runs. The chalet type properties are located at the base of the ski runs and the area is perfect for skiing from December right through to May. There are also opportunities for snowboarding, ice diving and ice skating so for winter lovers, Isola is the place to buy you leaseback property.
