A new survey has found that the
USA is the most attractive region in the world for property investment in 2013.
The poll by Colliers International found that America is the most desirable location
to buy real estate, followed by Asia and Western Europe, particularly Paris,
London and Germany.
We look at why investors believe
the US is the place to buy property.
New York popular along with other ââ¬Ësafeââ¬â¢ locations
The Global Investment Sentiment Survey
quizzed over 500 property professionals around the world. It asked property
experts for their outlook on property nationally and internationally for the
next 12 months and found the USA to be the preferred location to buy.
Tony Horrell, CEO, UK and Ireland,
Colliers International, said: ââ¬ÅMajor investors are becoming more critical when
selecting their investment locations. This is supported by the overarching
themes we found when asking respondents about their investment strategies ââ¬â
they are more likely to look at home locations first, and when they do look at
international opportunities, they are far more specific about the individual
markets and sectors in which they are interested.ââ¬Â
The survey also revealed that
investors continue to prefer property in the ââ¬Ësafeââ¬â¢ markets including London,
New York, Paris, Hamburg, Frankfurt and Munich.
The US property
market is showing clear signs that a recovery has begun. Prices are beginning
to rise and the volume of sales is also increasing.
Now is a great time to invest in
property in the USA as not only are you benefiting from low prices but also
from some of the lowest mortgage rates the country has ever seen. Whether you
are looking for a holiday home or an investment property, the US offers plenty
of opportunities in 2013.
