The stock markets of the world are crashing around us as we write this, so the team at Amberlamb are pleased to announce that there is a way to acquire a low risk entry into investment property in Malaysia for all those who have become risk averse overnight!
The REIT (Real Estate Investment Trust) industry in Malaysia may be in its infancy, but as we will demonstrate, it offers property investors a way to buy-in to a sustainably expanding property market where high yields and low risks over the medium to long term are the name of the game.

It would be a bit naïve to suggest that there hasn’t been a tightening of belts when it comes to investment in international real estate over the past twelve months. But some markets have proved profitable and of interest even when the global credit crunch has crushed others. Morocco is one such market and even in 2008, property in Morocco is proving profitable.
Dubai based international real estate developers Emaar Properties specifically cited Morocco as one of the markets that has helped them remain in a strong financial position throughout 2007, and what’s more, other global names are lining up to invest money into property in Morocco in 2008. These facts should give individual investors maximum confidence in Morocco as a location consideration for portfolio expansion going forward…

The new government in Croatia has said that it is determined to lead the nation towards EU entry by 2010 and NATO entry later this year; furthermore it has declared that it wants to ensure the nation continues to develop a strong economy with emphasis to be placed on expanding the country’s tourism market in particular.
As Croatia meets the objectives laid out for it by the European Union and continues to do everything it can to meet the NATO membership deadline in 2008, so investors are becoming increasingly attracted to one specific area of the country’s real estate industry in particular, namely commercial real estate. In this article we look at reasons to invest in commercial property in Croatia…

In a brief break from the norm at Amberlamb we have decided to do a bit of a two part feature on where to buy property in Panama simply because there is so much more to this fabulous nation than Panama City - and yet that’s the only location where the vast majority of people are apparently focused.
Because the second HiFX ‘Annual Global Property Hot Spots’ report has highlighted a growing British interest in investment property in Panama, and because others are now touting the property investment potential in Panama, we wanted to help our readers quickly get a feel for which areas of the nation offer what sort of property and what sort of appeal.

The news from the Montenegrin property market is mixed today. On the one hand you have the central bank pretty convinced that their country’s real estate market is over priced and heading for a negative correction, and on the other hand you have the government striding ahead with significant property and mortgage law reforms and another firm offering mortgages for foreign buyers in Montenegro.
Seemingly there is room for improvement in the property market at least in terms of the legalities supporting an owner’s rights – but is there room for improvement in terms of property prices? What do new property laws in Montenegro but falling prices mean for the investor?

It’s not often that we have a crisis of confidence or clash of opinion at Amberlamb, but when it comes to Brazil, not all in the office is hunky dory.
As regular readers will know, the general consensus of opinion here has always been that Brazil makes an incredibly interesting prospect for property investors seeking long term, strong potential for growth, yields and above all else profitability...but should we be so positive about property in Brazil?

On the 26th of December an announcement was made that could herald the beginning of a period of significant and positive change in Romania. The Fortune Group from Dubai announced the results of its two year research programme into the viability of investment into the property market in Romania.
The Fortune Group, which has over 7 billion dirhams invested in property based projects in the UAE, conducted extensive investigations into the property market, the economy of Romania and international interest in the nation commercially and from both a tourism and second home standpoint. As a result of their research, the Fortune Group have decided to commit to two multi-billion euro property based projects in Romania, and this UAE sourced money will no doubt boost Romania’s property market significantly.

Both the construction industry and the property market in Bulgaria are continuing to boom as we move in to 2008, with 2007 having been bumper years for both economic sectors according to a series of independent reports. This is excellent news for the nation and for all those who had committed to the market prior to the country’s 2007 EU entry...but what does the market have in store for the short to medium term for those who have yet to buy?
Well, there is an opinion widely shared that the construction industry will continue to expand well in to 2010 simply because of a general dearth in supply of quality residential, retail and some industrial commercial stock across the nation...so this will bring with it undoubted opportunity. But what about basic buy to let strategies or buying now and reselling a few years down the line for realisation of equity expansion? Well, neither investment strategy will bring much success in the short term in our opinion…

The economic situation in Cyprus is positive, the adoption of the Euro was hassle free, interest in the property market in Cyprus remains strong and Easyjet are going ahead with their plans to start flight routes from the UK to Paphos in March - so all in all it’s pretty positive news for property in Cyprus especially if you already have investment real estate on the island.
Whether the situation will remain so strong throughout 2008 has yet to be seen as the real estate market in Cyprus is very strongly dependent on foreign investment, but for those with investment assets already in their portfolio, it’s expected that the rental rates will increase and interest particularly in holiday lets will remain intense throughout the year.
