Let me introduce you to 10 excellent reasons about Spanish investment property on the Costa Del Sol with Merck Estates.

1. Proven track record of between 15% to 20% of capital growth over a 2 year build period when buying "off plan".
2. All of your funds invested in off plan property on the Costa del Sol come with a full bank guarantee whilst under construction, ensuring your payments are fully secure.
3. Only 30% plus tax of the purchase price is required initially, leaving you the rest of your available investment funds to pursue other ventures or expand your Spanish investment Property Portfolio allowing you to make the most of this lucrative market.
4. The option to sell your Spanish investment property prior to completion should there be an interested party and realise your initial 30% investment capital plus profit to move onto the next off plan investment opportunity we recommend.
5. The Costa del Sol has become the most popular tourist destination within Europe with a large percentage of people visiting the Costa del Sol deciding they too would like to buy a second home in Spain. The fact that they may prefer to purchase a property that is already built so they can realise the rental potential immediately works hand in hand with the investor wishing to sell on his/her investment properties that were purchased off plan.
6. Spanish tourist data estimated that on average 20 million holidaymakers visit Spain each year and expect that figure to increase dramatically with the completion of the extension of Malaga Airport. More and more low cost airlines are expanding their flight routes to include Malaga, and of course holidaymakers always have the option of flying into Gibraltar.
7. The Costa del Sol has the largest concentration of international golf courses in Europe, a climate of over 300 days of sunshine per year, numerous restaurants, bars and clubs in Puerto Banus and Marbella, combined with the beautiful traditional whitewashed Spanish villages, fabulous marinas and friendly people all make the Costa del Sol the place to come and enjoy a new lifestyle, whether for a week or a permanent move.
8. Should you be an Investor coming from the UK and trading in Pounds Sterling then you are already approx 44% ahead of the countries that have joined the euro currency due to the rate of exchange.
9. When we come to sell on your Spanish investment property(s) there are no problems with having surveyors check the property unlike some of the older Spanish properties as all new developments on the Costa Del Sol come with a 10 year build guarantee that certainly gives the new owner peace of mind and a hassle free transaction.
10. If you are an Investor and would like to go to rental phase on completion of your Spanish investment property we have an ideal interest only mortgage facility available to all of our clients of up to 70% of the completed property market value allowing you to enjoy making more profits on your investment.
