Why should I consider investing in real estate ?
- High probability of increased value for attractive properties in good locations.
- Real estate is considered a conservative and long-term capital investment. For this reason, this type of investment is of particular interest as a retirement provision. In other forms of savings, it is easier to overcome the inhibition of using up one's personal financial reserves to reach a particular saved amount.
- The financial administration supports investments in real estate in a number of ways, whether by increasing the investor's tax-allowable expenses, allowing financing costs to be deducted as income-related expenses, or through certain benefits in the case of estate- and accession taxes.
- Other asset categories are highly speculative (e.g. stocks) or offer the investor only a minimal rate of return after deduction of taxes and inflation (e.g. government bonds). There is no foreign exchange risk involved. Furthermore, it is advisable to distribute one's assets over a number of asset categories (diversification).
- As an investor, you have the advantage of being free to choose, for example, to later occupy the property yourself, thereby avoiding the need to make rental payments after retirement.
- You have the greatest possible power of decision with regard to your assets. There is no money manager who could potentially cost you your savings through their investment decisions.
- If one assumes, as in the past, a certain connection between rent prices and inflation, then your investment in real estate will protect you from losing buying power in the case of currency depreciation.
- Purchasing property is—given the necessary solvency—also possible with a minimal shareholder's equity.
- An investment property makes particular sense for individuals wishing to plan for the long term and set their own goals. When combined with long-term financing, your investment guarantees you planning reliability, and though loan redemption and property appreciation, you attain a significant capital growth.
- Your retirement provisions are inheritable, and may also be used as collateral if necessary.
- In the last few decades, the economy has been characterized by instability, excess, and crises. Given this financial situation, it makes sense to make solid, profitable investment choices.
- Former Minister of Finance Norbert Blüm liked to quote the phrase “our retirement is secure;” today, all that is certain is that little more than the absolute minimum of basic social care will be left. It is up to you to take this opportunity to shore up your retirement provisions and take control of your own future.
Why should I make an investment decision soon ?
- Property in Germany are very cheap by international standards.
- The property market in Germany is not overheated, and there was no speculative bubble as in stocks.
- The mortgage rates are at historically very low.
- The inflation rate is still low, although the world's state debt, and the money supply to skyrocket.
- The number of newly built homes has been declining for years, a timely demand for residential and commercial space is available.
- A real estate investment is a long-term investment. The sooner you buy a property, the more likely it is the date on which it throws off your property a pension.
- The property market is in upheaval. For example, the state of Berlin has to be separated from many of its state-owned homes to rinse urgently-needed money into the empty budget coffers. It can not and does not want the country to respond to market trends. Take advantage of this opportunity and benefit with our help of such special situations.
