What You Need To Know About Egypt
Egypt is a country that can mainly be found in North Africa. The country borders the Red Sea (east), Sudan (south), Libya (west), Mediterranean Sea (north) and the Gaza Strip and Israel (north east). It covers an area of about 1,010,000 square kilometers and has a population that is estimated to have 76 million inhabitants who live near the banks of the Nile River alone.
Just like any other countries, Egypt has adopted many names. It ranges from the ancient Egypt stage to Coptic stage, to early Greek, Arabic and so on. It has also been termed as the black land, land of the riverbank, and the two straits. Having been able to adopt many names within the different periods of time, the country finally got a permanent name - Egypt. The English name was derived from the Latin word Aegyptus which means "the name of a temple of the God Ptah at Memphis".
Geographically, Egypt holds the 38th-largest country in the world. It is approximately believed that the country is twice the size of France and the same size as of all of Central America. However, though it has quite a big land area, people do not seem to use the entire land. In fact, the inhabitants use only about 5.5% of the total land area. This is because of the aridity of Egypt's climate; which is why the inhabitants are concentrated along the Nile Valley and Delta.
Aside from the famous Nile Valley, the majority of Egypt is desert which includes parts of the Libyan and Sahara desserts. The country's towns and cities do include: Cairo (the country's capital), Alexandria (one of the greatest ancient cities), Aswan, Asyut, Giza (where the Pyramid of Khufu can be found), El-Mahalla El-Kubra, Luzor, Kom Ombo, Hurghada, Port Said, Port Safaga, Suez (where you can find the Suez Canal), Sharm el Sheikh, Al-Minya and Zagazig.
The country's climate, as expected, does not receive that much of a rainfall except in winter. Snow can be experienced only on Sinai's mountains and some of the north coastal cities and occasionally in Alexandria. Frost can also be seen in mid-Egypt and mid-Sinai. As for the temperature of the country, during summer it is expected to be between the average of 80F (27C) and 90F (32C) and in winter, it is expected to be between the average of 55F (13C) and 70F (21C).
Furthermore, Islam is the predominant religion of Egypt. About 90% of the population is Muslims and their national language is Arabic. Most of its livelihood focus in agriculture and settlements can be seen along the Nile River.
Every year tourists visit the country during the favorable months of mid-October to May, when the weather is not that hot. They visit the country to be able to witness what Egypt is famous for; the history, the ancient monuments, the Karnak Temple, the Pyramids, particularly the Giza, the Valley of the Kings and the Opera House which is the only one in the Arab world.

Monaco Rocks The Property World
Amazing figures are being banded around of just how valuable property is in Monaco, with one report indicating a 30 per cent in value while other leading areas such as London and New York's residential property markets stall during the credit crunch.
There is no doubt that property in Monaco is valuable, and that it is among the most sought after real estate in the world - but are the press reports suggesting astronomical prices for an average apartment accurate?
One company who can accurately state what is happening in Monaco is International Property Tribune, who uniquely run both leading property and travel internet sites for the tax haven.
'The problem with Monaco property prices', they say, 'Is that there are no official statistics to show what is happening across the Principality. Monaco is probably unique in that the country doesn't collate the figures. It wouldn't be difficult to do as each sale goes through a government notary - but figures aren't published.'
But the latest properties they have that are new to the Monaco property market suggests that prices are still, despite the recent global economic turmoil, higher than anywhere else in Europe.
On the Boulevard d'Italie, Monte Carlo, a 70m2 one bedroom apartment is available at a touch under 2 million Euros. Not too excessive for Monaco - but the apartment has no views, and doesn't even have its own parking space. Over in Fontvieille, near the helipad that connects Monaco and Nice International Airport, is a two bedroom apartment that does have views - of the Mediterranean - and a parking space, and that is priced at 4,700,000 Euros.
But it is a studio apartment measuring just 50m2 for 4,900,000 Euros - getting on for 7 million US dollars - that makes even a casual observer appreciate that Monaco property prices really are the highest in Europe.
Clarifying further why properties for sale in Monaco are so high International Property Tribune points out that Monaco is a tax haven - and during times of recession the wealthy realise that the money they have is going to work hardest when it isn't subject to tax and demand for tax haven property can increase as it is part of the process of gaining residency in Monaco along with having an account with one of the Monaco banks.
The supply of property in Monaco is pretty limited, with many owners keeping their properties longer than in the past - a good turnover used to happen as residents fulfilled their residency needs and then moved on, often after five years, but now keep their property as an investment instead of returning it to the market for sale.
New supply will come in the form of a new island Monaco will be building that will house apartments and infrastructure such as a university and art galleries, but the island - widely tipped to be called Princess Grace Island - is some ten years away, and until then Monaco property will continue to be in short supply.
In summary Tribune say that the current high prices for Monaco property are sustainable due to the lack of supply, but it depends upon demand continuing in the way it has in recent years.
'The British have made up an increasing percentage of the overall number of buyers for Monaco property in recent years to the extent that it's reached 40 per cent of the buying market originating from the UK, and if the City of London and the British banking sector continues to do hit problems as it has in recent months - then we might see overall Monaco property prices drop in value.'

If you have read about all that Egypt has to offer and are dreaming of owning Egyptian property, there are some practical considerations that you should make. Fortunately, there is an abundance of information about purchasing properties in Egypt. You should take advantage of it. Learn all you can before making a decision to buy property in Egypt and think about the following practical considerations:
• Do you plan to move to Egypt or simply purchase a holiday home in Egypt?
How you will use the property will determine what type of property you will buy and how much it will cost to keep it maintained. If you choose to purchase a vacation property, you will have to pay a management company to maintain the property. Of course, you could rent the property out to make some extra money when you’re not using the home.
• Can you afford the property? A second home can be very expensive. Make sure that you know all of the cost involved. If you plan to move, there may be additional expenses that come along with living in a foreign country. Make sure you understand all of these costs fully.
• Can you make a living in the area? The economy at the Red Sea in Egypt is booming, but will you be able to make a living. If you posses certain trade skills, you should find out if these are in demand in the area before you make the decision to relocate.
• How long with you hold onto the property before you sell it? You should always have a financial plan for the future. If the property is an investment, have a clear idea of how you will manage your investment.
There is a great demand for housing in the Red Sea area of Egypt. If you plan to develop vacant land, you will need to understand all of the legal aspects of developing Egypt property.

You will still be able to develop and sell your property; however, you will need to understand how to legally do so.
There are also a few non-resident restrictions that you will need to consider. Currently, non-residents are allowed to own as much property in Egypt as they want. This avoids challenges if you planned to parcel off land, develop it, and sell each parcel individually.
While there are many practical considerations that you need to make before buying Egypt property, it is not that much different from purchasing property elsewhere. You should always do your research and make all real estate purchases with both eyes wide open.

Buying an Apartment in Marsa Alam Egypt
Brand new apartments located at the beautiful Red Sea city of Marsa Alam in Egypt southern Red Sea. Miles of pristine beaches await and a serene place for extended stays or as investment rentals. Marsa Alam is a world class diving destination with many unexplored diving treasures and a great overall atmosphere to get away.
It's an area that is growing quickly and is a prime investment area for anyone looking for an investment with good return potential.
In this brand new building, apartments ready for sale and they are discounted on
pricing so it is expected they will be sold rather quickly.
Marsa Alam is a very small village in Egypt's Red Sea area. It is a fast
growing place and has very good infrastructures in place so it is well on track to be one of the hottest tourist destinations in the Red Sea.
Marsa Alam has an international airport so it's just a short flight from Europe and the UK.
There is an elaborate yacht club which has been recently completed and the area close by is very pricey. Marsa Alam is sure to draw many good residents in the coming years as it is said to be the next french riviera..... we'll call it the prize of the red sea riviera.
It is already a popular destination for many people and local resorts enjoy a good volume of visitors. There are a few large resort hotels which exist in the area and there are numerous buildings under construction which will be other hotels, resorts and apartment buildings, shops, etc.
Everywhere you look today, in Marsa Alam, there is construction going on as the development continues from that of a tiny fishing village to a beautiful town at the Red Sea. Surely if you're looking for a place busy with tourists then this might not be the right place to you and maybe you should be looking at Hurghada instead. Hurghada streets are filled with tourists every day of the year and the night life goes on all night.
If you want peace and quiet and happy with the sand and the sea, then Marsa Alam is the place to be. If you want a great investment opportunity then buying an off plan apartment in Marsa Alam could be the best bet.
There are apartments available for sale right now which are in the process of construction in a brand new building. The building owner is Egyptian-American and he has taken every step to take care of the construction process to see that the quality of the building is very high. Additionally, he is taking the effort to be selective in the tenants which will have shoppes at the street level of the building.
The building is located in the town area and is just a short distance to the beach. (about 5 minutes walking). The building is located right on the corner of two streets and it will
have shops on the street level. At street level you can sit in the cafe, enjoy a cappuccino, smoke some sheesha, get something to eat or just enjoy watching the passers by,
The apartments are located on the upper floors. This property is basically "off-plan" since selling of the units is done as the building is being completed. Many people like this since it means they're getting a substantially reduced price, just 14000 Euros for a one bedroom unit and a 18000 Euros for a 2 bedroom unit.
This is a common way to buy in many places of the world, it works well and the Egyptian government does closely control and monitor these types of transactions in order to see that everything is legal and done according to the way it is supposed to be. You are able to own the property freehold and you can keep it forever, sell it, rent it, live in it or do whatever you might desire.
Some people might not be familiar with purchasing an off plan property but it is commonly done in Egypt and the process of purchasing this way works quite nicely so these apartments and shoppes will be sold and let in the traditional off plan contract for sale.
Buying off plan give you the chance to have a very special pricing on the apartment and then the interior is finished at additional cost. Interior finishing for a 1 bedroom unit is 8,000 Euros and finishing for the 2 bedroom unit is $10,500 Euros.
Some people prefer to finish it themselves, especially those that are local to the area. Many times foreigners want the apartments to be completed and we're happy to provide the finishing of the units if you desire that.
Our finishing packages will bring the apartments to American style finishing with nice bathroom fixtures, full shower and bath, kitchen with cabinets and a wardrobe closet for storage in the bedroom.
With our finishing packages, standard tile flooring will be added and the interior walls will be painted in neutral colors. Of course if you want a certain color theme we will be most happy to make it to your request.
With our finishing packages, just add furniture and you'll be ready to move in. Refrigerator and stove is not included in the finishing pricing, most people prefer to select one of their own choosing. Of course we can help you with these appliances and well as furniture if you need help.
The building will have an on site manager so there will always be someone around to help you with whatever you might need. Sometimes people buy the apartments for their own use and other times they are looking to get them as investment purposes.
As investments go, this is a great one as the apartments in Marsa Alam are in heavy demand. There are not many apartments there and this is an absolutely gorgeous place to spend some time. It's quiet there and a great place for those that want to get away from it all and enjoy life a little on the relaxed side of things.
If you're wanting to rent the place while not using it personally, there is a big rental market there for apartments and you would find it quite easy to have it rented whenever you like. Management companies are readily available to help with taking care of your guests while you're abroad.
The next step if you're interested is usually to see the place and make your choice of an apartment to purchase. A contract for the purchase will be made between us and the initial
payment is due at contract signing. The amount due for the first payment is 40% of the purchase price. The remaining 60% is payable according to the finishing time you request.
Apartments can be completed by winter 2009.
If this is a program that works for you, after the initial payment and good faith money at the contract, the remaining will be paid over 5 monthly payments with the final payment due at delivery of the unit to you.
Finishing packages for the units will be due during the final 3 payments.
If you're in Egypt or thinking about coming there and if you'd like to see the building you're welcome to let us know. It's a great offer and if it's what you're looking for then we're looking to help you select a unit and get signed up.
We'd like to help you in whatever way you need so just let us know what we can do.
If you're looking to make a great investment, Egypt is a secure place to do that. It's safe and the locals are very friendly to foreigners. In fact, if you're in Marsa Alam, it will more likely be that the Egyptians are the foreigners as the residents throughout the area are more European and from the UK. There are plenty of Egyptians but don't really expect them to be your neighbors, most of the apartments in Marsa Alam will be owned and occupied by foreigners. People are buying these apartments because it's a great investment and Egypt is such a friendly place to foreigners. Of course the beaches and quiet are tops on the list.
The Red Sea Egypt. Where the sun shines every day, 365 days a year.

Hawaii, Land Of The Millionaires?
If you want to hang with the wealthy you might want to head to Hawaii. Phoenix Marketing International has announced the results of their latest study which shows that Hawaii remains the state with the largest percentage of millionaires per the overall population. In the Aloha State as in most everywhere else, the amount of millionaires has diminished over the past year. They led the list last year with 7.26 percent of the population and continue to dominate in 2009 with 6.4 percent of Hawaii's households being worth $1 million or more in investable or liquid assets, (excluding sponsored retirement plans and real estate).
The other states in the top five are Maryland (6.3 percent), New Jersey (6.2 percent), and Connecticut (6.2 percent), an order of ranking unchanged since 2008 with Virginia sneaking into the top five at 5.5 percent, displacing Massachusetts which is now in sixth place. Since this list ranks the percentage per population the smaller states have a better shot at making it to the top.
Where can you find the lowest percentage of millionaires? That would be Mississippi which has owned the bottom spot for the past four years and hits a new low this year with 3.06 percentage of the population being millionaires. The state with the most millionaire households is California with 662,735 or 5.28 percent of the population. The complete list is available as a PDF download here.
Another survey recently released looked at wealth distribution by city. The Wall Street Journal reports that the new U.S. Metro Wealth Index by Capgemini (which does the World Wealth Report) showed that Orlando Florida lost 42 percent of its millionaire population last year while Las Vegas lost 38 percent and Phoenix lost 34 percent. It's no coincidence that these towns were also some of the hardest hit in the real estate boom-turned-bust. Millionaires in this survey were defined as those with investible assets of $1 million or more, not including the value of primary residence. Add in the value of the primary residence and these numbers might be even lower.
As with the by-state numbers, those with the biggest populations lost the most millionaires meaning that New York City ranked first, Los Angeles was second and Chicago third in the amount of millionaires lost . The rest of the cities in the top ten were Washington D.C., San Francisco, Boston, Philadelphia, Detroit, San Jose and Houston.

Tips for buying UK property at auction
A lot of UK properties with development budding are now sold at property auctions. Property auctions could be quite daunting places for the layperson and if you are seriously trying to purchase at property auction then it is a good idea to go with and you must be an observer before you go on with purchase. You need to be prepared for the bid and must go with necessary preparation.
On the auction day visit the place before hand. Many UK property auction houses need you to get register as a bidder at the start of the sale. Check if this is the case and double check the catalogue entry as you would not desire to purchase the wrong property by accident. Stories of people grazing their noses and purchasing a house by error are very much exaggerated. The auctioneer would be noticing your whole body not just your hands and he would not misconstrue who is bidding and who is not.
Do not generally go with the first bid, try to avoid it. If a UK property is not well liked, the auctioneer might drop the starting bid to a lower level. You would not certainly want to pay more than you actually had to. As soon as you have entered the bidding, attempt to suspension for a second or two between bids. By slowing down the speed you could assist yourself to prevent your adversary from getting over-excited and bidding more than they planned to. Finally, do not on any account bid above your before agreed limit.
The down side of purchasing at UK property auction is the high possibility of inviting unsuccessful costs (many of your opponents would be actually professional dealers who would be buying for cash and are capable to estimate their own renovation costs.
Their costs therefore would be much lesser than yours). The up side is that there are authentic bargains to be had. The dealers would characteristically be looking for a boundary of 20% plus financing costs. This margin could be really yours - if you purchase wisely at UK property auctions.

On the auction day visit the place before hand. Many UK property auction houses need you to get register as a bidder at the start of the sale. Check if this is the case and double check the catalogue entry as you would not desire to purchase the wrong property by accident. Stories of people grazing their noses and purchasing a house by error are very much exaggerated. The auctioneer would be noticing your whole body not just your hands and he would not misconstrue who is bidding and who is not.

Property in Turkey: The Laws That Can Make It Happen For You
Until recently, foreigners were not allowed to purchase property in Turkey. It wasn’t until the year 2003 that the idea of owning property in Turkey could even be seriously considered for many. Even then, many people steered clear of the idea. Property purchases made by expatriates at this time could be likened to a trickle. Today, however, more and more people are entertaining the idea of owning property in Turkey.
Since Turkey was accepted into the EU, more people from the UK are working and taking holidays in Turkey. The Turkish government is all for the change and has even taken steps to promote Turkey as a great place to travel. And people are starting to get the message.
If you’re one of the many who are considering purchasing property in Turkey, there are some things about property laws in Turkey that you should know about.
• Foreigners are now allowed to purchase property in Turkey because of a reciprocity law. This means that any citizen of a country that allows Turkish citizens to buy property in their nation is allowed to buy property in Turkey. There are still some countries that are blocked by this law, meaning that if you are a citizen of a country that does not allow Turkish nationals to purchase property, you will not be able to purchase property in Turkey.
• There are some areas of Turkey where foreigners are not allowed to purchase property. Property around military bases and sensitive locations in Turkey is not allowed to be sold to non-citizens.
• Beware of encumbered property. It is not uncommon for property sold in Turkey to be encumbered by liens, back taxes and other title issues. Be sure to hire a lawyer so that you will know for sure about the property’s status before any money exchanges hands.
• When you make an offer on a property in Turkey, you will be required to place a 4 to 10% deposit if your offer is accepted. If you back out without good cause, you will not be refunded this deposit.
• When you purchase property in Turkey, you will be required to purchase earthquake insurance as well. This is usually not expensive, but it should be factored into your budget.
• When you close the transaction, you will apply for a new deed at the Land Registry Office. It normally takes about three months to receive the deed to your new property.
It is extremely important to hire a lawyer whenever you buy property in a country that is not your own. Property laws vary widely from country to country, and you cannot be expected to know everything that is involved with purchasing a property abroad. Having a lawyer on your side can help you steer clear of any entanglements, hassles and unexpected costs associated with buying property in Turkey or any other country for that matter.

Phenomena of International Real Estate
The Dubai Properties and Real Estate Blog is a resource center for international property investors. Being the commercial hub of the Arab world, Dubai saw property boom since 2002 when the government had permitted foreigners to invest in Dubai properties in order to boost Dubai and as well as the whole UAE real estate market.. For a few years now, some have been saying that the Dubai property bubble was about to burst and that a property crash was just around the corner. Yet, prices kept increasing and such doom mongering proved unfounded. The Dubai property market is unique in many ways, and as such doesn't follow the general rules of other property markets around the globe and other Middle East property markets. The current rate of return on UAE property investments is in the region of 10 - 15 percent per annum, with this rate expected to continue for the foreseeable future, and rental yields in excess of 10% are further evidence of strength in the property market. The growth in the tourism industry of Dubai has been phenomenal with the 3.4 million visitors in 2001 expected to rise to over 6 million in 2010 - from a standing start the area is becoming a magnet for overseas visitors.
Many of Dubai's property developments set out to emulate the most prestigious residential addresses in the world. However, the less glamorous middle-income gulf or Middle East real estate market is increasingly drawing the attention of savvy investors. Dubai Properties is one of the biggest and has said it will deliver 5,000 units to the freehold market in 2008 which is not nearly enough to meet surging demand. Abu Dhabi property market will not deliver a single new real estate unit this year, and deliveries will only start late in 2009, and that creates additional demand in Dubai.
The Mediterranean island of Malta has recorded the strongest growth in property prices from countries in the European Union, and recent news could help see property inflation in double figures for the next few years. Malta is not only a tax efficient location with beautiful costal properties for sale or rental, but its warm climate, beautiful sea and days full of sun will help you relax and retire in a friendly and safe environment for Mediterranean property investment. Sustained property inflation at levels seen in Malta are rarely seen in other countries, but new economic activity on the island could see property demand at good levels for some years to come.
The introduction of low cost flights to Malta from the UK will open up the possibility of more international real estate investors looking at the island for holiday homes that could be used for long weekends, and the Malta hotels industry could reap the benefits of the 3 and 4-day tourist seeing the island as a viable place to visit. After some years of wondering how Malta property market would fit into the modern world, property agents, hotel owners and the Malta holidays industry are beginning to see the future with some optimism.
Due to the gains in housing equity in the past 20 years, more people have been seeking to invest in housing, rather than other forms of investment. In the UK there has been a rise in the number of private buy to let investors. Similar to an increase in the buy to let sector, there has also been an increase in demand for houses from oversees property buyers. This has had a significant effect in boosting real estate demand, especially in London. In terms of land mass the UK is an incredibly small country yet it attracts amongst the highest levels of immigration in the world. the supply of property is always restricted in the UK and that exaggerates price swings and ensures a recovery. Those more patient buyers from Arabia will find themselves well rewarded.

Why should I invest in a foreign country
Investors always prefer to invest in their resident country as they are better informed about the developments in their parent country. The investor will also have easy access to the statutory filings of companies listed on the resident country's stock exchange. However, the return on investment is inextricably linked to the performance, and current phase of the economy. Returns generated by a matured economy is relatively lesser as compared to an emerging economy or a developing country that exhibits strong fundamental growth story.
A foreign country possessing the resources and expertise for planned development is poised to generate better returns as compared to matured markets. The reason being that such countries do enjoy higher rankings in terms of investors confidence and have strong backing of in-depth analysis from eminent experts studying macro economic development across the globe.
Broadly, factors like the stage of economic growth, the potential for industrial growth, progress towards strengthening the infrastructure, economic policies adopted by the country, political stability of the government, liberalization policy, investment policies and capital account convertibility has to be kept into consideration. Another major factor to be considered is the amount of foreign funds flowing into the emerging economy in the form of foreign direct investments (FDI) and foreign invested enterprise (FIE).
The Chinese economy is the fastest growing economy registering an average growth of more than 9 percent. The 11th five-year plan of China expresses targets a minimum 8 percent growth in the next five years that is far higher than the 1 to 2 percent range for the U.S. economy. Chinese economy has obtained cumulative investments of more than $563.8 billion by the end of 2004. The energy needs of China's economy are the only major concern, which needs to be addressed by improving energy production. China is poised to become the leading consumers of metals like iron and steel, copper and aluminum by 2010. Infact China may account for close to 50 percent of the total steel consumption in the future years.
Investments by American companies in China emphasize on the level of confidence these companies have about the growth prospects of the Chinese economy. The biggest disadvantage of highest population has turned into the biggest advantage for the Chinese economy attracting investments in China. This is the reason behind pouring investment in Chinese economy, as big companies like General Motors and Coca-Cola have flocked in billions of dollars in the Chinese market. Setting up base in China will act as a hub for supplying the greater China economies that include the Shanghai economy, Taiwan economy
and Indian economy.
All the above-mentioned factors coupled with the leadership position of the Chinese economy in telecommunication, electronics and consumer durables market make it a foreign country worth investing.

A Guide To Buying Overseas Property
Buying a property overseas is an exciting new venture and with the accessibility of markets abroad, it is easier than ever before! It is important to not be daunted by the abundance of property on offer and use the help provided for a quick, easy, and successful purchase! There are certain fundamental things to remember when coming to buy a property overseas, whether it is to be a holiday escape home or permanent residence, the following points are important to bear in mind.
1. Decide exactly on what type of property is most suitable to your needs, is it a business apartment for those meetings abroad, a place in the sun with a swimming pool, or a house in the buzz of a busy city overseas. Having in mind what you want to buy and the purpose of the property makes purchasing much easier.
2. Once you have your ideal home in mind, try not to be overwhelmed by the abundance of property’s available or be persuaded by a charismatic agent into buying something which is not ideal to your every requirement.
3. Ensure you have inspected the property fully and seen the end result, buying a property that is in the process of being constructed is always risky business as the end result is never guaranteed.
4. Do not forget to account for expenses, agent fees, VAT, travel such as flights and accommodation when vesting the country you are wishing to buy a property in and so on, a rough guide is around 10- 15% above the price of the house.
5. Scour the market for areas which are gaining popularity, this way you can be sure there are adequate nearby amenities as well as the likelihood of increasing the gained capital on the property, with further options such as renting the property out at a later date and so on.
6. It is always good to locate near locals as well as tourists, to really experience a place, its culture and so on, as well this can be an investment with future renting potential.
7. ensure there are adequate facilities nearby, shops restaurants, health services, schools if you have children, public transport and so on.
8. It is all very well relying on the advice of a lawyer recommended by the estate agent, but it is definitely worthwhile seeking your own independent advice to ensure all eventualities are covered.
9. Another important issue is to double check the inheritance laws in a country you are purchasing a property in, not everywhere is as straight forward as the UK.
10. Learning the language of the c country is a big help, particularly once you have moved when it comes to services such as engineers etc, this can prove very difficult with a language barrier!
11. Most importantly, ENJOY your property. Buying a property overseas is an exciting venture so make sure you relish it and don’t become too stressed out by the move and organizing! Your new property has much to offer!

Free Advice On Buying Investment Property In Egypt
Property in Egypt is a strong favourite with British overseas property buyers who have been buoyed by the potential for high capital appreciation. Whilst there has been undoubted capital growth, 42% in 2005 according to international surveyors,the Egyptian property market had its problems like any developing country should therefore be treated with caution.
Some of the property in Egypt has been of a sub-standard quality and property rental potential has been overblown. Overseas property buyers have invested predominantly in the areas of Hurghada,El Gouna, Safaga and Marsa Alam (sometimes spelled Mersa Allam or Marsa Allam). In the main, these areas have been overdeveloped where supply outstrips demand. The prices of many properties in Egypt are out-with the budget that can be afforded by local residents and are reliant on overseas property buyers who buy for investment or lifestyle reasons.
Overseas property buyers hoping to rent out their Egyptian property should ensure that their property has agreements with travel companies as Egypt is not the sort of country where tourists turn up and rent holiday apartments on impulse. Rental potential in many areas should be estimated at approximately 7%-9% net and not the 12% that is quoted by some. Genuine guaranteed rentals schemes are an attractive option to many investors as it gives peace of mind with regard to relying on a rental income, if necessary, and saves having to spend time marketing the property. Guaranteed rentals are not always genuine and are sometimes merely the result of the price increase in the property. Genuine guaranteed rentals can be given where the developer has agreements in place with tour operators and is therefore assured of occupancy levels.
Property in Egypt is still appealing for property investors. EU entry and the associated levels of investment as a result of membership will no doubt assist capital appreciation. Additionally, tourism levels are increasing making buying a diving destination property, golf property or beach property all the more appealing. The main consideration when buying property in Egypt is to focus on areas that are not over-developed. We can only recommend property in Egypt where our analysis has shown that there is good growth potential and importantly, the possibility to sell or rent at a later date. Such areas that have highest potential for selling and renting are as example in Marsa Alam which has a low number of completed apartments or flats for sale and it will be a few years for the construction of new apartment homes in Marsa Alam to catch up with the current demand. As more and more people are discovering this area, the available apartments do get sold and then they are occupied or let once completed.

Some Useful Tips For Buying A Property Abroad
Buying a property abroad can be a stressful experience. Here are some tips to help you get through without too many headaches.
Deciding to buy a second home is exciting. Thoughts of holidays in the sun at any time of year, with only an airfare to pay can quickly overtake the realities of buying a property abroad. Rush into a purchase, and you could be counting the cost sooner than you think. Instead, take your time and you’ll be enjoying the full benefits of your property abroad for years to come.
Where?
You need to decide where you want to buy your property abroad. This decision is linked to why you want the property and how you are planning to use it. If you just want a base in your favourite holiday spot, it’s a pretty straightforward choice. If you’re investing for a good rental or re-sale return, you need to do a bit more research.
What?
What sort of property do you want? An apartment close to the beach, or a private villa with a pool? Perhaps you’d like to renovate a farmhouse or build your own home on a plot of land. Decide what you want before you go looking.
How much?
Decide how much you can afford to spend before you start looking for properties. That way, you can manage your expectations, or look at quieter areas where you may get more for your money. Remember to include legal fees and other administrative costs in your budget.
Finding and viewing
Use a registered and well-established estate or property agent to help you find your property abroad. They can help you to find properties that match your requirements and they can also recommend solicitors, notaries and other professionals who can help your purchase to run smoothly. Make sure that you travel to the country and view a range of properties – never buy on the basis of a brochure or a picture on the internet.
Legalities
Laws governing the purchase of property differ from country to country. Before you put in an offer for a property abroad, make sure you know what the local regulations are, and appoint a registered solicitor who can explain everything to you before you sign any documents. The same goes for taxation legislation and any other rules that you have to follow as an overseas buyer.
Organisation
The more organised you are, the easier the process will be. Buying a property abroad can take some time, but when you’re sitting out by the pool with a cocktail, you’ll know that the organisation, research and planning was all worth it!

How to Buy International Property in Mexico
Buying international property in Mexico is much different than buying property here in the United States. In fact technically a foreigner is not even allowed to own property in Mexico. While this doesn’t mean you can’t get property in Mexico it does mean you have to take careful steps to ensure you are doing the deal properly.
Owning international property in Mexico as a foreigner is known as owning in the Restricted Zone. Because a foreigner cannot legally own property in the restricted Zone you will have to appoint a Mexican Bank to act on your behalf as a trustee. As the trustee the bank will legally own the property, but you will hold the exclusive rights of ownership and can improve, rent or sell the property as though it was your own. One of the most trusted banks in Mexico is Banamex, which is actually owned by Citigroup.
The first thing you should do is hire an attorney. Make sure that the attorney is licensed to practice law in Mexico. Having an attorney with you can aid in the different legal proceedings that take place in Mexico when it comes to buying international property.
When you find a property in Mexico that you like, you need to make sure that the seller legally owns the property and can legally sell the property. If everything is alright with the property the seller should be able to provide you with a copy of the public deed stating ownership and a lien certificate with a description of the property. Have your attorney check to make sure that the paperwork is in order.
Next comes the offer. The offer should be done in written contract form and it is a good idea to have a copy done in both English and Spanish. The offer is usually accompanied with a deposit of between five and ten percent of the offer price. The contract is known as a “promise to buy” and the buying process begins after the seller accepts the offer. Once the seller accepts the offer, the buyer is normally expected to deposit half of the closing costs as spelled out in the offer to buy.
With any type of real estate acquisition, foreigners always need to register the ownership at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The rights to ownership are granted when you agrees to comply with Mexican law and to waive their rights to foreign government intervention. By doing so, you are considered as a Mexican National with the corresponding rights. In the case of acquisition of property in the Restricted Zone, it is the bank that requests the acquisition of the property at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Once all is in order you are now ready to close on the property. The signing of all contracts or the “closing” must happen in front of a Notary Public. Before all the papers are signed you will be required to deposit the remaining money needed to complete the transaction. Once the contracts are all signed the funds are transferred to the seller and the property is transferred to the buyer. Transfer of the property typically is completed within 45 days. After that you –or rather the Mexican Bank- will own a great piece of property in Mexico.

What To Consider When Buying A Property Abroad With Friends
One of the ways for people to purchase a property abroad is by combining funds with family or friends.
It sounds like a great way to get what you want: get together with good friends or close family members and buy a property abroad that you can share. It’s a plan that can work if you pay attention to details and make sure that everyone’s working towards the same goal.
If you want to buy a property abroad, but don’t have the funds to do it by yourself, then clubbing together with friends or family is a good way to raise the cash. It’s easy to work out when to use the property between you and if you have a property that’s big enough, you can all go at the same time for a special occasion, or just to get away from the English weather for a while. Whoever you choose to buy your property abroad with, there are some things you should consider:
Mortgage payments
If you and your co-owners pay for your property abroad by taking out a mortgage, you will need to agree what percentage of the mortgage each party will be responsible for. You need to be aware that if one party defaults on the mortgage, the other party is liable for the payments.
Cash buying
If you can buy your property abroad with cash, then you will need to draw up an agreement with your friends or family that agrees on the percentage of the property owned by each party. This helps to prevent any difficulties if one party decides to sell their share.
Co-ownership agreement
However you choose to buy your property abroad, it is wise to draw up a co-ownership document. This doesn’t need to be complicated, but should set out ground rules for use and rental of the property and what happens when one party wants to sell.

Buying Egypt Property For Sale Is A Notion To Consider
Until about a few years ago Egypt property in was not a concept that generated immediate attention for many different reasons. Egypt hadn’t really established herself in the global real estate market due in part to lax governmental laws, an unfriendly infrastructure, inadequate building regulations, and difficult property taxes.
However, in recent times the scenario has changed. Though it cannot be said that this is a completely new Egypt being talked about and therefore any of the available Egypt property for sale in options can be picked, the situation has changed for the better. While there is not one factor that can be bestowed the credit for the improved property scenario, the government’s efforts in this direction has certainly helped the situation.
Egypt can now boast of an elevated rank in the Global Real Estate Transparency Index, as conducted and released by Jones Lang LaSalle. The country earned 59th position in the transparency survey. It can be argued that this is not a very bright achievement, but for those who are even slightly apprised of Egypt’s past property market situation can say what an achievement this is.
Another wing actively involved in illuminating the property in Egypt market is the Egyptian Tourist Authority. As per United Nations' World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO), tourism statistics have revealed a growth of 20% for 2007. West Side Village reports that Egypt will be the ninth most popular destination for holidays in 2009. The Egyptian Tourist Authority does not aim to stay content with just this increase in tourists. They want the number to increase to 16 million by 2014 because an increase in tourism brings many benefits to different sectors within the country, which includes the property market.
Egypt property in is extremely cheap to buy and a four hour flight from the UK efines the accessibility pattern. Hurgada for instance is a tempting offer; cheap property prices, no capital gains taxes, nominal registration fee, flourishing nightlife and more, together contribute towards the argument. Likewise El Gouna, Sharm el Sheikh and other areas on the Red Sea present serious offers in the property for sale Egypt category.
Buying property in Egypt allows foreign buyers to enjoy the same rights as Egyptian citizens, but it is suggested to tread with caution. The Egyptian property market has just started the course to advancement and cannot be treated on par with international standards. It is a young market with age old informal schemas still covering considerable portions. Trading with reputed developers is of increased pertinence and judging the track record of the developer, before getting into any legal contracts, is also of considerable relevance. However there is no dearth of respectable developers.
If the property you want to buy is an established property you will need to haggle. A saving of 10% can be achieved. Once the price is settled a contract will need to be agreed. If you are buying a new development or an off plan project the prices are determined in advance and there is little room for negation of the price. Before you commit to anything you must have your own lawyer who is not connected in any way with the sale.
If you need a mortgage for your Egyptian property, you may find it easier to obtain the loan from the UK, as the mortgage industry in Egypt is still in its infancy. Some Egyptian developers will provide loans in order to encourage you to buy from them. However, strings are often attached, which can include the loan being for a short period of time and being tied into the development should you wish to sell your property. Therefore when it comes to buying an Egypt property for sale, always seek good legal counsel.

Cheap Bulgarian Property
Cheap overseas property is actually surprisingly easy to find, despite the current property boom that has economic growth up 6% for the 2006 year alone. The reason that you can still find cheap overseas property is that supply still outweighs the demand for the property, but it appears as time goes on the tides will turn and cheap Bulgarian property will be more difficult to find. As there is less and less property, the cheap Bulgarian property that is still left will suddenly be able to be sold for a premium because it’s very limited in supply. Cheap Bulgarian property should be purchased now by those that are interested in it because even when the market levels a bit property values will be up and the cheap Bulgarian property of today will no longer exist.
If you are looking for cheap Bulgarian property that will be the most likely to climb in value and get you good returns on foreign investments, you may want to look around the beaches. There are 11 blue flag beaches in Bulgaria that are on the Black Sea coast. Much of the cheap Bulgarian property that is being bought up is around the beaches. The reason that this cheap Bulgarian property is being bought up is because investors know that tourists frequent the area and they can rent out their cheap Bulgarian property to tourists for a lot of money and then end up selling a few years down the road earning even more from the cheap Bulgarian property. A cheap Bulgarian property may be really affordable today, but if the market continues like it has been for awhile the cheap Bulgarian property will be anything but cheap.
Cheap Bulgarian property can also be found around many of the ski resorts. The ski resorts are a huge draw for tourists and if you buy the cheap Bulgarian property that can be found around them you are almost guaranteed good returns. You can choose to buy cheap Bulgarian property that already have either residential or commercial structures on them. You can also buy cheap Bulgarian property that has yet to be built on so that you can build either residential or commercial property on them as you see fit. The ski resorts are big money for Bulgaria and investors can cash in on this fact by buying up the cheap Bulgarian property that is around the resorts and still available today.
Another great place to look for cheap Bulgarian property is around the nature trails meant for hiking and biking as well as the natural mineral springs that are found around the country. Many tourists come to enjoy these features and you can buy cheap Bulgarian property to cater to them in the way of vacation rentals, business, and more. There simply is not a way that you can go wrong when you invest now in cheap foreign property and sit on it until you find the right time to sell. The idea is to buy while you can still find cheap overseas property.

Commercial Investing Abroad
Almost everyone wants to own a property or get into an investment overseas. There are more property millionaires in the world now than there ever have been before. Why's this happening now? Investing in property overseas is currently showing high returns on investments, as well as incredible growth. That's a recipe for success. In fact, there are plenty of people who are experienced in property investment jumping from one emerging market to the next, making money as they go.
Property is a steady investment, offering more security than some other types. It's also a growing investment. On average, properties double in value every seven to eight years. If you buy at the right time, and are willing to be patient, you can make a lot. In fact, investments grow even stronger and safer when they're embedded within the world's property markets. A lot of the opportunities for investment within the United States have already been taken. In addition, there are now problems with affording property for development, interest rate hikes, and even discussion of crashes. This can make getting into property investment pretty tricky.
On the other hand, development in other countries is fairly new. In many cases, we've just begun to scratch the surface. In the past decade, overseas property investments have reached new heights, with overseas developers offering great incentives to get investors' money into the right projects. So, whether you're thinking of getting into property investment or are an old hand at it, consider looking into property investment overseas. Looking farther away can help you find affordable, yet profitable properties.
Just taking a look online will tell you that there are a number of nations offering the potential for growth in the property sector that's profitable and sustainable. Since even the most conservative financial advisors say that at least ten percent of your portfolio should be property investment, buying overseas real estate is a great idea. If you're wondering how to get started in this great investment opportunity, there are a few things to keep in mind to improve your chances of success.
First, remember that anyone involved in development or real estate is going to slant things in a positive light where they're concerned. It's often not deliberate deception, just a part of being positive about your own field. What this means, however, is that what you hear about a particular market is probably going to be biased. Never purchase a property in a country that you've not visited, and if possible, visit the property itself before buying. This is especially true if you're buying for your own use, but even if you're buying as an investment, you'll want to be sure that the property lives up to its potential. Don't just rely on the statements of real estate agents and developers. Your own experience is vital.
You're only buying what's in the contract. If you've been told that your property will have access to communal amenities, but your contract doesn't mention them, or there's supposed to be an attraction such as a hotel or golf course built nearby, you have no guarantee that these things will happen. Base your estimates of profit on what's available now, not what might happen in the future. This can be hard to keep in mind, since everyone wants to be optimistic about the future of their investments. However, trusting too much in what others might provide can lead to financial failure.
If you're investing in property overseas because you're planning to live abroad too, don't rush into your decision. The ability to stay in a country means that you can learn a lot more about it and its investment opportunities. Some people look around for up to a year, so that they can see the area in all seasons, find out what the weather does to potential properties, and find out what investments are likely to prosper. Taking it slow is the best way to get a great overseas property investment, especially if you're going to be local.
Remember that markets have cycles. This means that some of them stay down for long periods, some go up to levels that they can't sustain, and some drop suddenly. Don't assume that every overseas property investment will necessarily go up in value. Most do, but even properties that are in period of growth will eventually stop rising. At best, they'll reach an equilibrium. At worst, they'll go down in value. This is normal. Researching and buying at the right time are the keys to getting a property that will provide you with a great profit. Don't pin all your homes and dreams on one property investment abroad. You could be disappointed.
Remember that you shouldn't trust anyone's word. While it may seem unfriendly to demand everything in writing, you can't take anything as guaranteed until you have it in an official signed contract. Up till then, there's a possibility of losing anything you've been promised. This means that you should get all details, including water and electrical supplies, written into the contract. Situations overseas may not be what you're used to. This can provide unusual opportunities, but it can also lead to unpleasant surprises if you don't get everything in writing.
Investing in real estate overseas can be a great opportunity. Many people are finding that the openness of these markets allows them to get in at an affordable price and still make a profit. Just be sure to go slow, and always know as much as you can about a possible property investment overseas. Don't take anyone's word about the contract, property, or area. Get things in writing, and only trust what's in your contract. If you're careful and know what you're doing, you stand to make a lot of money!

How To Research Property Abroad
Before you commit to buying a property outside the UK, you need to make sure that you have done all the necessary research.
Most of us have been on holiday to a beautiful place and been tempted to buy a holiday home there and then. It’s much safer, though, to come home and do some research before you take out a second mortgage or plough all your savings into a new property.
What do you need to research? Well, for a start, owning a property abroad is a very different proposition to renting a villa for a fortnight. There are legal, financial and cultural considerations, together with how you’re going to use your property once you’ve bought it. Here are just a few of the things you need to think about:
Location
You might have had a great holiday, but is there enough going on in your chosen location to keep you occupied all year? If the tourists only arrive in the summer season, what happens in the winter? You need to travel to the area out of season to see what it’s like and whether you could live in a property abroad when it’s not hot and there are no tourist amenities available.
Legalities
The laws governing buying property abroad differ from country to country and, in some cases, from region to region. It’s vital that you know what laws and regulations you need to abide by, and what rights and responsibilities you have as the owner of a property abroad. If you don’t research this before you buy, you could end up in a legal jam later on.
Budget
Before you start visiting the country to view properties, make sure you know how much you have to spend. Remember that, just like the UK, there are costs on top of the property price, including legal fees, notary fees and other charges. If you find out in advance what these extra costs are, you can set a budget which ensures there are no nasty surprises when you’re halfway through your purchase.

Buying Property in Egypt
If you're looking for that special property in Egypt, here are 8 quick tips that might help you on your way.
1. Get Information before you view the property. You can cut down on wasted trips and expense this way. Be sure that the property fits your budget and desired location for buying a property in Egypt.
2. Consider looking for property in areas that you haven't previously visited and are not familiar with. Certain areas command premiums only because they are widely known. In Egypt, the most known area is Cairo. Alexandria is also quite well known but if you want a beautiful jewel of the sea with pristine beaches that go for miles with not very many people around then find something in the Red Sea area of Egypt. Especially the southern Red Sea area of Hurghada all the way to Marsa Alam are beautiful locations which are becoming popular with tourists. The increase of interest in property purchase in Marsa Alam or Hurghada is understandable as there is a multi million dollar yacht club near to Marsa Alam as well as a brand new international airport. Apartment pricing in Marsa Alam is quite low with a huge potential to be of tremendous increase of value over the near future. It is also a worldclass diving destination and there is a shortage of apartments right now in that area. This means there is opportunity to buy an apartment in Marsa Alam Egypt and to rent it during the time when you are not there to use it.
3. Consider your purchase thoroughly. As with any purchase, buying without proper thought can result in unexpected costs. There are many opportunities for those looking to purchase land in Egypt or to buy an apartment, flat or private villa in Egypt.
4. Get to know the area before you buy. Talk to people who have already purchased their home, holiday in the area of Egypt that you're considering to buy, or even rent an apartment, flat, villa or private chalet somewhere where the property for sale in Egypt is located. Especially at the Red Sea in Egypt you can find good property to purchase in Egypt. Hurghada and Marsa Alam are fantastic tourist destinations which are also great for investment properties in Egypt. Stay for awhile, buy a property in Egypt and enjoy some time.
5. Visit the neighborhood. Get to know whats around your new property in Egypt and see if you will like them. As with any property purchase in Egypt or anywhere else, your neighbours will be a part of your life once you've moved in to your new property. This is an important fact that many people forget about when considering to purchase a holiday home, apartment, flat, or whatever. Some places at the Red Sea especially a place in Marsa Alam has little neighbors and it is very quiet around town. It is like a village really but it won't be staying that way for long. Anyone that wants to have such a beautiful retreat in Egypt will be lucky to enjoy the next few years while things are peaceful and quiet. Anyone looking to buy an apartment in Egypt where there are many people around should better to look into Hurghada and surrounding areas.
6. Completion of Off Plan and other notes. Be sure to have included everything you will need for your egyptian property purchase. Especially if you are buying off-plan property then get the full pricing for interior finishes and furniture packages to be included if you want to. Mostly the off plan properties may not include interior finishing so expect to pay for all appliances,flooring and interior wall finishes to suit your taste. Many people are liking to purchase off plan apartments or flats in Egypt because of this ability to choose finishing that is pleasing for their living intentions. Whether you want your unit to be finished in luxury style or to keep it more standard apartment style, it will be most important to like your building and location for the property to buy in Egypt.
7. Consider taking independent legal advice, through another notary or another specialist. The vendor instructs the notary who acts in the sale of the property. They are acting in the conveyance of the property, but not for either side. When you are buying property in Egypt there is a well established system for such transactions and you can be assured that the property will be properly transferred to you for freehold interest when you work with building owner or developer directly and then take use of legal help with you need it. Review and understand everything you sign. Contracts are involved and this is real estate purchase in Egypt.

Five Things to Consider When Buying Property in Egypt
International Property often makes a great investment. The likelihood of your investment appreciating in value over the next 5 to 10 years is pretty good, if past performance is anything to go by. Something that we are seeing more and more when it comes to property investments are holiday properties, rental properties and second home properties abroad. Buying property abroad allows an investor to maximize his or her investment potential by purchasing property in up and coming areas and areas with a high volume of tourism.
One of the most popular places to buy such property is in Egypt. Why? Like most other countries, Egypt is experiencing a much smaller decline in their housing market than that of most other areas but still they too are feeling the hit of the economic times. These days, sales are down and there are plenty of properties to choose from. This means that you can buy virtually any property you want for a bargain price. The culture, allure and beauty that have always been an integral part of Egypt are still there. But now you can buy a piece of it for a fraction of the cost than you could in years past. Throughout Egypt, there are apartment homes for sale and properties to purchase. Choose from the city life in Cairo or Alexandria or choose the beach life of the Red Sea area in Egypt. Red Sea city life is different than the rest of Egypt. Red Sea Egypt property owners always say the sun shines every day 365 days of the year. It makes a nice place to own an apartment near to the sea and owning property by the beach in EGypt.
Egyptian Property: 5 Things to Consider
Whenever you buy any type of holiday property whether it be in Egypt or some other exotic location, you will have many considerations that you will need to make. You should never buy a property in Egypt without weighing the pros and cons. Here are some things you should consider:
• Location – Location is everything. Egypt is experiencing a decline in the housing market, but some places are harder hit than others. Try to choose a property in an area that will recover quickly once the downturn is over. Areas that are holding their own in spite of current market challenges are the best places to start. The Red Sea area is one such place, anywhere along the Red Sea are well established destinations with good signs of growth potential on Egypt real estate investing.
• Use – How will you use the property? Will it be used as a second income, as a holiday home or both? If you plan to sublet it, will you hire a management company to take care of the details?
• Affordability – You should be absolutely certain that you can afford all of the costs associated with the property without the extra income from a tenant. After all, you might not be able to secure a tenant right away or at all. You should be prepared for all possibilities.
• Salability – How long do you plan to hold the property? Remember; sales are down in Egypt. If you’re looking for a property that you can buy and sell quickly, you might want to look somewhere else. If you’re looking for a long-term investment, on the other hand, Egyptian property is ideal.
• Laws – Buying property abroad is different than buying property at home. You have to abide by the country’s property laws where the property is located. Some of these laws might be favorable to your situations, some might not be.
Buying property in Egypt is a venture that you should not enter into lightly. Do your homework; study the market. Hire a great agent. Do everything possible to ensure that you get the property you want and the best deal possible.
