One of the best ways for an investor to capitalise on a
rising market is through purchasing ‘off the plan’ property.
The term applies to the fact that the property has not yet been built
and therefore the investor is buying the property to have an advantage
in the market when it comes to either selling the property on or generating
a higher than average rental yield.
The benefits of doing so can be explained by the choices that the investor
has over doing this when compared to purchasing a building that has already
been built and is being directly sold on the market. One of these choices
is the opportunity to have more of a say in the specific development of
the building. An example of this would be getting the chance to choose
the best apartment within a block of housing and the way in which the
apartment would be fitted out, as all these things can be used to maximise
the amount that you can earn from your purchase.
The price that would be paid for the property would be relevant to the
average prices of the market and that time. If the market is rising then
this can mean that by the time you have completed the final down payment
there can have been considerable capital gains that have changed the price
of the property and made it more valuable than the price you paid at the
initial signing of the contract. As you complete payment of the property
upon the completion of construction this means that you have a greater
period of time in which to restructure your finances around the purchase
and do not have to invest large sums of money without seeing any initial
return.
