Polish Property Tops Investment Table

Polish property is giving the best rate of return according to the Assetz quarterly investment tracker for the first quarter this year. This is as a result of capital gains on property on Poland climbing to 33%. Deposit levels start at 15%, making Poland a popular choice for investors at the moment.

Stuart Law, Managing Director of Assetz commented: “Poland looks set to lead the pack of emerging markets this year, with strong capital growth and excellent local demand as well as foreign investment. Warsaw’s property prices remain amongst the lowest in Europe and the introduction of major industry to the city is attracting an increasingly young and wealthy population. I expect to see continued strong growth and a flourishing rental market.”

Investors looking for a more traditional home for their money might still consider looking to the other side of the Channel. France’s continued popularity as a holiday destination is keeping the rental market healthy with yields of 7% and capital growth of 7.6%.
