Primarily there are three major Investment Strategies:
Buy to Sell: About buying the property off-plan before the development actually starts, and further selling at, or before, completion and analysing the capital growth achieved during the development cycle. By investing 30% of property’s value at signing contracts and with annual property rise of 10-15%, you can benefit a 21- 32% gain on the property value during the development phase, equating to a 70-100% return on the investment.
Buy to Sell Model
This model is mainly focused on buying the property off-plan prior to the development starts, and further selling at, or before completion time, grasping the capital growth achieved during the development cycle.
- Annual growth as low as 8% can produce returns of 69% over two years
- 10% annual property growth rates can returns a ROI of 83% over two years
- 15% annual property growth rates generates an ROI of 120% over two years
Model 1 indicated below assumes that the villa is purchased at the current market price and the value is shown in UK £ for convenience, however, the present rate of exchange is around £1.20 to each CYP.
