As the summer months fade, a surge in the booming Philippine property market is anticipated. Beth Collingz, Overseas Sales Director at PLC International Marketing Networks, predicts a 30% increase in overseas buyers this autumn, particularly for the Lancaster Brand of Condotels.
Seasonal Trends in Overseas Property
It's common to see seasonal trends in the overseas property market, especially from the UK. Between 2004 and 2006, the number of Britons owning a second home abroad skyrocketed from 550,000 to 800,000. Many Brits are drawn to the benefits of living abroad, including diverse cultures and often improved standards of living.
According to Collingz, the Philippines experiences a sales peak in early autumn. After summer holidays spent hunting for homes, interest spikes as European weather worsens. The UK market, rather than the US, is seen as the prime target for selling Condotel units in the coming months. PLC Global's property portal has noted increasing traffic from UK buyers eager to explore the Lancaster Brand of Condo Hotel suites.
Tax Advantages with SIPP
UK taxpayers are leveraging tax benefits by investing their Self-Invested Pension Plans (SIPP) in Philippine Condotel real estate for rental income and retirement. Collingz explains that SIPP offers flexibility in investment choices, allowing holders to invest in projects like the Lancaster Condotels, provided the investors don't use the rooms themselves. More than 70,000 plans, holding over £14 billion, are now in place.
Many in the UK are discovering they can manage their pension portfolios and invest in promising overseas real estate. For instance, a preconstruction Condotel suite at Lancaster The Atrium, Metro Manila, can be acquired for under £25,000.
Investment Opportunities in Lancaster - The Atrium
Lancaster - The Atrium offers "Full Service" Condo Hotel suites, from Studio to Three Bedroom options. Set for completion in December 2010, these units provide an attractive option for those interested in rental income through the Condotel Management program, yielding returns of 8-14% ROI annually. Low property taxes and maintenance costs in the Philippines enhance investment appeal.
Benefits and Considerations
A £25,000 Condotel suite incurs minimal annual taxes and upkeep costs. With tax-protected investments, coupled with the potential for 12-16% returns through the Condotel advantage, the ROI is substantial. However, SIPP rules prohibit personal use of these properties, risking tax-protected status and possible penalties if violated. Rental income must be reinvested in the SIPP, maintaining the tax advantages.
A Strategic Move for SIPPs
With the UK housing market slowing and pension plans faltering, investors increasingly turn to SIPPs for overseas property investments, securing tax-free or deferred incomes. The Lancaster Suites Atrium Tower's preconstruction units offer a prime opportunity. Property appreciation of 20-30% annually, along with substantial rental income, rivals traditional pension plan returns.
Many investors are seeking alternatives to unstable pension plans. Real estate offers potential for monthly income and solid investment returns, making Condotels in the Philippines an ideal choice. The consistent high rental returns of 8-14% per annum open avenues not traditionally explored by real estate agents focused on residential sales.
Educating and Guiding Clients
PLC International Marketing Networks focuses on educating clients about emerging investment opportunities. Self-Invested Pension Plans and the Lancaster Suites Atrium Condotels align perfectly with this mission, offering clients a viable path to securing their financial futures.
