Hi i have posted about this already but here goes again. I want to buy a property anywhere, anywhere at all with hopes that it can be rented out so that the rent will cover a large portion of the mortgage. Hopefull over 50% of the mortgage. I do not mind having to top up the mortgage as i beleive in the long run for my plan this will pay off. Im happy in the thought that someone is helping to pay for my property..........thats it......thats all i want. I dont care how or where i acheive this but i would like it to be as safe an investment as possible with few headaches.

I have a budget in mind of £800 a month to cover all of any costs that arise, ie mortgage, management company, repairs etc etc.

What is you opinion on what would be good for me. I have no real interest in capital apreciation at all, if it happens on the side, great, but im happy with just having a good tennant for a long time.

What should i look for?

Is not about what you can pay on a mortgage but what deposit you have, tell me what deposit you have and I can give you some pointers.

Your rental return must cover your mortgage. Also be careful as you speak of having sterling to cover mortgage and this will be subject to currency fluctuation which could hinder you on down the road.

This All screams Berlin to me have a look you can even buy with tennant in place there and the germans all rent its alien to them owening a property

Dubai IMPZ is your answer.
Are you in London?

Rammah

I was looking for buying property in Gulf and found this useful website of EtaStar. Is there any other websites which provides similar information?

I note everyone is telling you where to buy and the great opportunities there are. I also note none of them are worried about your personal circumstances or what is best for you.

Whilst Germany gives good yeilds the taxation system is terrible and so many before you did nt take the time to look at this with effect they will be crucified on exit.

Remember the day you buy is also the day you sell, so mistakes when you buy will be paid for on sale.


Feel free to contact us if you want to consider Romania and then do comparrisons with some other markets so that you can make an informed decision

800 pounds a month is enough to pay all the expenses for a property in many cities in the USA. Your tenants would help with the payment, but you need to be in a position where you can make all the expense payments if your property is vacant.

If the goal is to end up owning a property, then allow me to suggest that you look at locations where you would like to live or vacation yourself. Perhaps you could end up with a fully paid property to enjoy in your retirement.

Pay attention to political climate, and to whether or not the country allows clear ownership of land by foreign nationals. Also there are a few countries that are very difficult to get your money back out once you take it in to their country.

Why not look at South Africa,i have a few new developments where 800 pounds would cover the entire rental (3 bedroom),and rental income would be around 300 pounds.
