The home is the new Piggy Bank and "Equity Release" is the new current account.
Property mania has now become "the" obsession for many. What started as a wave of home ownership in the 80's has
led to media makeover programmes and thousands of column inches.
In 25 years we have transformed from passive renters to property speculators and share owners. All of which has
been fanned by legislation and cheaper money.
Who was it who said, the first rule of investing
- "buy low sell high!"
There have probably been more millionaires created through property appreciation than any other business activity.
Hence, in the early days of LatticeWerks, many of our clients' motives were to gain financial independence.
Many of our clients had caught the tail end of the UK property boom, and seen their UK properties appreciate with it.
They wanted to use their property capital to make similar gains abroad.
Many of our investors believed in buying the best, that they could abroad. Leveraging their money to buy off plan
property. By putting down an affordable 5-30%, many invested in top developments, that they could not
normally afford. Investing on the basis that location, location, location would result in
a good return, and an easy re-sale. The Palm in Dubai was a case in point. Many made multiples of
their original investment, without even having to invest the entire amount, and re-sold before
completion.
So what's our unique selling point ?
• We scrutinize dozens of property investment projects sent to us by developers every month.
• We use our investment criteria to select the developments.
• We are especially interested in developments that have noted added value, such as:
An historical listed building perhaps... (converted Mill,Borgo Cartiera,Italy).
An iconic Development perhaps... (The Palm, Dubai)
or developments in emerging growth areas or economies like Estonia.
• We provide contacts with FSA mortgage consultants for finance.
• We provide contacts for long/short term rental of your property.
• We can even help provide the furniture packs required before the property is put up for rental.
What do we provide that will make a difference ?
• Being an independent business, not attached to any one developer.
• Offering a one to one with our clients, whether that's buying a single property, or structured advice on building a valuable robust property portfolio. In our experience it only takes several property opportunities before clients have a sizeable portfolio.
• We concentrate on added value developments, like the ones above. We are not a mass market box shifter.
• For us, all this equates to better capital appreciation, better rental yield and easier resales.
• Our added value services: Informative consultants to discuss the development in detail
• An assigned consultant with a helpful professional approach.
• Greater transparency - since our strong relationship with the developer allows us to keep our clients informed.
• Property Investments that can be enjoyed, but at the same time giving managed rental in developments where possible.
• What started as transactions turned into relationships with developers. The added value those relationships gave to us, was negotiated better prices to our clients.
• Being a niche business makes us flexible in a fast changing property landscape.
What LatticeWerks does not do ?
• Fill you full of marketese
• Make exaggerated claims of how you can make a Million + portfolio in months.
• Rope you into fee paying seminars
• Charge you a membership fee
• Bombard you with email
• We're not in the business of box shifting, so a transaction involves us in the whole life cycle.
We are a people to people business, not a automated website.
If brown is the new black - Property Investment is the new global currency
Whether you're a property investor, budding property developer, hotproperty or property hotspot watcher, or just climbing the property ladder, you're probably going to have one thing in common - wanting to make a return on your investment. Even if you don't believe in the old saying about investing being driven by just two emotions: fear and greed. The resulting by-product of making a return on your investment is always the most desirable one.
The property investor's risk and reward
To that end, Latticewerks sources off plan property investment opportunities that will make that return - be that overseas property or within the UK. A great deal of our investment decisions are based on data from a number of sources. One of them being RICS property investment reports. A lot of experts believe the UK housing market has begun to stagnate. Even amoung those that beg to differ, the feeling is that it is probably better to diversity their portfolio, into other real estate markets.
The best Eastern European Property Hotspots
The slowing growth of the UK and Spain, is in contrast to the double digit growth in some Eastern European quarters, such as Estonia. Over the past year we have started to build relationships with small flexible developers in Eastern Europe. Give one of our property consultants a call regarding Eastern Europe if you have a particular interest in any of the emerging Eastern European property markets.
It's worth looking at the previous historical property investments we've been involved in, to get an idea of the sort of properties we invest in. You can find all that on the portfolio page.
Latticewerks' grass roots relationships with developers has led to a number of outstanding past investment opportunities. Predominately off plan investment hotspots are selected to offer minimal risk and maximum return. So whether you are buying property abroad or investing locally, we aim to give the property investor a superb opportunity to increase their wealth through capital appreciation.
Whether you're buying for the pure luxury of having a private holiday escape of your own, or to secure your financial future through a long term investment. Buying in the growth markets abroad is a way many people are achieving this today. By using little or no money of your own, and overseas finance, investors are able to leverage their investment to gain a substantial capital appreciation. To paraphrase another great business giant .. the big money is never made in the buying or selling, but is made in the waiting.
The Dubai Property Market and the Worlds Cranes
Dubai has been a simmering luxury holiday destination for some years now. The growth of tourism
has only been overtaken by the staggering growth of real estate construction. Not since the
pyramids has so much construction technology and hardware been focused on a single location.
At present Morgan Stanley estimate Dubai has between 15-25% of the worlds construction
cranes ! With that much buzz, it's hard not to want to take a closer look at the manicured world of
Dubai.
