Portugal Records the Worst Tourist Season

AHETA, the Algarve’s regional hotel and resorts association, has reported that the Algarve has seen a drop in hotel occupancy to the tune of 3% below 2007 figures. With a lack of visitors, especially from the UK, not meeting the expected bumper year figures, this summer has been one of the worst on record.

The AHETA President, Eliderico Viegas, said that the region’s tourism industry wasn’t expecting this decrease in tourist demand, adding that most hotel operators were forced to cut prices in August, but even so found themselves far below the typical August visitor numbers.

The Algarve’s many restaurants, bars and nightclubs have also been hit by the reduced number of tourists, with AHETA stating that the weak British pound and the lure of cheaper destinations such as Turkey, Egypt and the Caribbean enticed the UK holiday makers away.

UK holiday makers account for 37% of the Algarve’s summer trade.

With this news in mind, Principal International have expanded their offering of investment properties to include the areas of increasing tourist numbers, such as Turkey, Egypt and the Caribbean. Where greater returns can be seen in rental income and capital growth in the aforementioned countries.

So to take advantage of the current investment climate, contact Principal International  to discuss the many options available to you.

Egyptian government delights property investors

Egypt has long been a must-see holiday location, teeming with history and culture. The Great Pyramids are enough to leave even the most discerning holidaymaker awe-struck. Moreover, Egypt boasts a wealth of luxurious holiday resorts, foremost among which stands Hurgharda.

However, the bureaucratic nightmare of purchasing a property, not only in a different country, but also on a different continent altogether, has long deterred would-be investors. In fact, Egypt was once infamous for its seemingly insurmountable red tape. The current steps being taken by the Egyptian government to standardise visa application procedures will then come to the delight of every property mogul, no matter how big or small.

For example, standardisation of tourist visa applications, such that they incur a set fee ($15 US) and follow a well-defined procedure, will undoubtedly help boost visitor numbers. This will improve an already enviable tourist rental market, particularly in places such as Hurgharda where demand for good quality apartments is already rather high.

The popularity of Hurgharda is reflected in the construction of a new arrivals terminal at the centrally located Hurgharda airport, at a cost of over $150 million (US). The airport carries approximately seven and a half million passengers per year, many of whom will be looking to rent a holiday apartment or villa.

With these figures in mind, it is little wonder that investors are dying for their piece of this profitable paradise.

Principal International has looked into the investment opportunities in the Hurgharda area. There is very little public beach area Hurgharda and many of the developments that have recently been built do not have access to a beach. We are therefore delighted to offer an excellent 5* luxury beachfront resort.

For the investor there is also an option for an apart hotel lease back with personal use. Prices are due to increase shortly with the announcement of an international resort operator, we would therefore recommend that clients reserve now to avoid disappointment.

Egypt’s thriving property market

As more and more tourists head for the red sea, investment opportunities continue to grow. The Egyptian economy has experienced a remarkable turnaround in recent months and is proud to be able to offer savvy investors significant opportunities to buy low cost luxury property with an excellent rate of return. Major tourist cities are achieving as much as a 25% capital growth on buy to let property and as the demand for more accommodation increases fuelled by the growing numbers of tourists, so does the rental market flourish.

A major expansion project of the existing airport is underway to accommodate the increasing numbers of passenger traffic coming to Egypt every year, attracted by the excellent diving facilities, outstanding beaches and friendly family holiday market, tourist numbers in Egypt are expected to reach 14 million by the year 2010.
As the prices of property in Egypt are still a fraction of those we are experiencing in the UK, many investors do not need to secure mortgages to buy property here, consequently the property market is growing rapidly but prices are remaining very keen. With more and more budget airlines flying here the independent holiday and rental market will continue to thrive and so with it will grow the investment opportunities.

Ambitious plans have been announced by the Egyptian Tourist Minister Zuheir Garana to improve and develop the tourist market of the country and to increase hotel bed numbers by 240,000 in time for 2011, this target will be achieved by building up the number of attractions, committing to legislative changes which are designed to enhance the investment climate and offering incentives to private investors.

Currently there is a zero stamp duty, capital gains tax and inheritance tax for British Citizens living in the UK and if the property is left to family members.
