What are the benefits of buying brand new or off-plan property?
New property comes with a 10-year guarantee. Also, the purchase price is fixed as soon as you pay the deposit which, given the steady rise in Overseas property values, means that the house you eventually move into will be worth considerably than the money you owe for it. It is quite common for people buying purely as an investment to sell the property before moving in or even before the building work has been finished, making a considerable profit.
