Default Which tourism developments offer an extended season but close to UK?

I've learned over the years not to rely on the fickle nature of capital growth, but instead to focus on rental yields.

I'm looking for my next investment now, and as with my last it must have a likelyhood of achiveing at least 7 months rent per year. Please keep in mind I know people who have bought in Spain that achieve only about 3 months in total.

I'm not interested in Eastern block tourism - the seasons are too short and there is insufficient state protection / developed laws for when things go wrong.

As I like to use myself I do not want a city as I have not the slightest interest in any City anywhere.

Seems every agent selling Cape Verde is using a similiar slogan about the extended season close to UK etc etc.

How extended do you need the season to be to get 7 months of rental income?

You get a few more months in Morocco and Turkey as opposed to Spain - same with Cyprus. Egypt is 12 months a year, but perhaps the 5 hour flight is too far for you.

I would look at Egypt!!!

Prices are very low and your rental returns are very advantageous!!!

Especially if you look at Sahl Hasheesh which has enough appeal to attract tourism year round, along with climate you are onto a win win situation!!!

some of the things they are building there is emmense!

Croatia - you are thwe author of an overseas investment guide, yet you think Croatia has a 7m + season? Last time I checked the season there it was May - September.
Sure, people always say "there is some off season trade" but I find it to be too thin on the ground.

Morocco I've already invested in.

Egypt seems to be good advice season wise.

There is nothing wrong with Croatia. Everybody can have an opinion and by the way it is around 6 months season there. Never mind.

First I said Cape Verde and you didn't like it. I said Croatia you said that I shouldn't be saying that and now on Morocco you have said that you have invested there already. Egypt is good for you then. No need to criticise anybody's advice.

Good luck!
