International Property

Property is no longer considered an 'alternative investment' as it is a viable investment option that offers excellent returns on initial capital. The growth in buying property both in the U.K. and overseas for either investment purposes or as a second holiday home is at an all time high. Some of the fastest growing markets include South Africa and Dubai as well as many of the countries that became part of the EU in May last year. At the same time Spain, Portugal, France and other mature markets continue to attract international property investors.

Buying property overseas is a complicated and expensive business.

The book will contain articles written by some of the world's leading experts in property purchasing and investment and will cover a broad range of information on subjects such as banking and finance, legal matters, where to buy and what to buy, taxation, surveys and valuations, travel, transportation, healthcare, education and schools, communications, interior design and motoring.
