5 Localities Close To Tourist Destinations That Are Turning Into Real Estate Investment Destinations
Real estate is considered to be a safe bet for investment and future returns. With changing times and the market ready for a revival, potential buyers, who were fence sitting for long, are now looking forward to buying a property for investment.
When buying a property for investment, the buyers have a different set of factors in mind when compared to buying a property for use. One of the major factor that differentiates the two is the location. While property for end use is bought close to business districts, for investment property, people consider areas in the city periphery or near to any tourist place.
Tourist places have gained greater momentum in past few years as investors have witnessed that irrespective of any season, these places encourage a huge number of footfalls. Thanks to a booming hospitality sector. Though buying a property right in the centre of tourist spots can be heavy on the pocket, for those considering them as their destination next can opt for areas in the periphery to get a favourable deal.
PropGuide lists reasons that make them deal-worthy locations for real estate investment:
- Land available at reasonable price
- Property prices are within the range and do not fluctuate frequently
- Less crowded in comparison to nearby tourist place
- Easy to reach from any metropolitan cities
- Maintenance charges are also comparatively low
