One surprising outcome of the international downturn is the reemergence of Germany as a favoured destination for overseas property investment.
According to many reports on the current increase in demand for overseas property, those currently buying are looking for safety above potential gains, and looking for solid, reliable rental income flows rather than the promise of exceptional capital appreciation.
Therefore, Germany is perfect for the current buyer: Germany property has never came with the promise of spectacular capital growth (well maybe 10, 20 years ago before people realised it was a pipe-dream), but what it does come with is some of the most reliable rental income flows in Europe.
This is because less people own their own homes in Germany than in many developing nations; just 46% according to the latest Eurostat data – that is compared to 71% in the UK for perspective. Of the rest 46% are living in rented accommodation and paying the market rate in rentals.
Unfortunately, because of the high volume of people renting the government is forced to limit rent rises in line with wage growth, but rental yields of 4% net are still commonplace in city apartments.
The rental market is developed and regulated like in the UK, but German investment property can be purchased a lot cheaper. That is often the main reason why people look overseas to make their property investments, because it is a lot less expensive to build a solid portfolio.
Azure Overseas are currently marketing investment properties in Berlin at prices starting from under £50k.
German investors have so far put 1.9 billion Euros into property this year. According to the Property Abroad.com top 10 for October Germany climbed 2 places to be 6th most popular with those searching for and viewing overseas property on the site in October.
Many people have been waiting to see if German property is going to see the price drops seen in Europe’s other developed markets, but now it is apparent that that is not going to happen they are beginning to take the plunge.
