Should we really be investing in property?

• Unemployment, taxes, debts, defaults all increasing alarmingly

• It’s bleak, but do these conditions unearth new opportunities to be exploited?

• Absolutely, unprecedented opportunities in fact

• But you must be extremely careful

Before you start..

• No “one size fits all” solution

• Important factors to consider

What types of countries do we see value in?

• Every country is suffering, but some will recover quicker than others

• Who has the capacity / sophistication to borrow cheaply and implement well thought out reforms?

• Which countries have strong domestic markets?

• Where are the areas where people will always want to live?

• Are there any property developers and banks suffering in these areas?

• Can high quality investment properties be purchased at a fraction of their former cost? Are these at or near the bottom of the cycle?

• Is there a genuine rental market that will ensure it is cashflow positive while you (patiently) wait for the market to recover?

• Will banks provide finance to foreign buyers for these?
