82 million is the number of visitors France managed to attract in 2007, ensuring that the nation still remains the number one most visited country in the whole world. And if you were looking for a reason to consider investing in French real estate we can give you 82 million reasons to invest in French property because not only is the country’s tourism landscape already clearly strong, it is strengthening.
The French are not content with the fact that in real terms their dominance in attracting visitor numbers is declining as emerging destinations plough massive funds into the promotion of their appeal. So, the French have started a drive to secure their status and in so doing, they have succeeded in making their property market even more attractive for investors.
The oldest ski resort in Spain is set right in the heart of the stunning Pyrenean Mountain range and it is undergoing quite a transformation as we write – massive investment is being ploughed into everything from infrastructure to real estate, and so important is the resort year round that it is used in the spring and early summer as a training camp for pro cycling teams preparing for the world’s most important cycle race, the Tour de France. In the summer it is also popular with everyone from mountain bikers to microlight enthusiasts, and of course in the autumn and winter it is an amazing ski resort.
Now is a great time to consider investing in property in La Molina as the rate at which the resort is developing will ensure greater numbers of year round tourists visit the area and that their experience when on holiday in the resort is enhanced by the general improvements to the entire resort and surrounding areas.
Lying just an hour’s drive from Toulouse airport and within reach of the ocean, the Pyrenees and also located close to the Spanish border, Gascony is a region of France well worth exploration if you’re looking to get away from it all in style. The region is famous for its Armagnac and foie gras and is becoming better known as a perfect French retreat for those in search of the real France, unsullied by mass tourism and undiscovered by a mass influx of foreign buyers.
In this article we’ll discuss why to buy French property in Gascony and look at what the region offers over other better-known or even more affordable parts of France.
Well, the Turkish government has done it again – they have put the breaks on the property market in Turkey right at the start of the summer season when prices and interest levels were both expected to rise. Because of a hold up in a law change, no title deeds are being issued to foreign purchasers and those who bought last year and expect to take full possession and complete legal ownership of their properties this summer are being prevented from doing so.
Naturally this is causing waves of panic to surge through the industry – no matter what smiling estate agents may say to the contrary. It’s not that any of them are worried the law change won’t go ahead, it’s that they are concerned this hurdle will be one too many in the way of rare and valued buyers and that they will head elsewhere. Trying times again for Turkish property then…which is a real shame.
