Your Next Step.

In our experience, unsuccessful property investors:-
• Have no strategy
• Have no clear plan
• Do not know how to take the right actions

As the old saying goes “knowledge is power” and it is our goal to empower you with the information contained within our website. Hopefully by now you will have read and digested our “Buying Guide” and reviewed the Frequently Asked Questions” page. Having done so, it should be apparent that at Investment Property Spain we are able to offer you:-

• The correct strategy
• A clear plan
• The opportunity to take the right actions

We would advise that you review your goals so that you are entirely clear as to the outcome you are aiming for from your Spanish property investments.

Initially you will need to consider the deposit you can afford to invest.

Then carefully consider again which strategy, or mix of strategies, will most suit the achievement of your goals.

Buy and Live - retain through to completion and use as a full time home.

Use and Let - retain through to completion and use the property yourself for as much or as little time as you require during the year. The property can then be let out during the times that you do not require it.

Buy to Let - retain through to completion with the intention of letting the property on a full time basis.

Buy to Sell - The goal is to sell the property prior to completion for capital appreciation.

With this in mind you can then start to put together a detailed plan of how to implement those strategies. Depending on the strategy that best suits your circumstances, other questions for you to consider are:-

• Your Target rate of capital appreciation
• Your Target rental yield
• The type of property or properties most likely to provide those returns
• The location of those types of properties and the type of tenant you hope to attract
• How you will identify the most suitable properties and how you will buy them
• How to analyse each transaction so that you know you are buying on the best possible terms
• How you structure your finance so you maximise your returns

If, before you start buying, you give careful consideration to each of the above points, you will already be head and shoulders above the average investor.

Having done so, you will now be in a position to narrow down the various developments on offer to the ones that best suit your goals and strategy.
