Getting in at the right time
Buy low sell high is the old adage and yes its still holds true for international real estate. This does not mean buy anything because its cheap location is still key. Buying in a property market that is at the beginning of growth with infrastructure in place and plans to improve upon it make it just ripe for your money. Understanding the local politics is crucial to your decision making, you need a government keen for overseas buyers to move into the market. Is the government handing out incentives to invest these can make all the difference to the capital growth of your property.

So what is an exit strategy?
This is all about getting out of the market when you want and how you want. When buying overseas think about who would you sell your property to. Are you restricted to overseas buyers who only like golf for example? .The best exit strategy means you have both local and international buyers keen to buy your investment.

Tunisia
Until very recently, foreigners were not allowed to buy property in Tunisia as the government wanted to ensure that home ownership for the local market was made affordable. The time to invest in Tunisia could not be better. Considered to be the one of the most stable countries in the Arab speaking world, and certainly the most politically and economically stable country in all of Africa, Tunisia is a founding member of the World Trade Organisation and has a trade association agreement with the EU. The Tunisian people have strong links to Europe and consider themselves to be more European in nature than African or Middle Eastern. A stable currency and consistently low inflation levels below 3% have helped to place Tunisia in a great position to benefit from direct foreign investment which is currently pouring into the country.
