Here, Jonty Crossick of Ready 2 Rent explains all about something I have bought into personally (its that good) ...

Spanish Villas Available At 30% Below Market Value - Double Your Money Immediately!

I have recently made several trips to Spain, exploring the entire Andalusia region. The deal that I found in Turre, near the famous village of Mojacar in the province of Almeria, was so good that I parted with a substantial amount of euros to secure. Turre is set in an area that still tastes of authentic Spain and is tipped for strong growth as land prices soar. This deal has everything. Best of all, I can offer you Spanish villas at 30% below their market value. If you put down a 30% deposit on the property then, given instant equity of 30%, you have, on paper, more than doubled your money in an instant. Deals dont come any better.

The great aspect of this offer is that the villas are affordable to most of my investors: 160,000 (108,000) makes it affordable for more people. At current market values these villas are worth about 230,000, so your instant equity is 70,000, or just over 47,000. In simple terms, youre putting down 32,400 to make instant equity of 47,000. Before transaction costs, thats turning 32,400 into 79,400, which is more than doubling (2.45 times, in fact!) your money.

Whats more, you have this superb upside while your downside risk is minimal, because you have 30% in the deal. The market would have to fall by 30% for you to start losing. I particularly like deals where the downside is small and the upside is superb.

I like to separate fact from fiction. Speculation is like gambling, whereas investing is more considered and prudent. I believe that investing in Spains Andalusia region represents an intelligent move. There are a number of contributing factors to explain why:

Property prices in Spain have risen by 284% between 1987 and 2002.
Property prices have increased by nearly 100% in the last decade.
The property market in Spain rose by 17.3% last year.
Spain is now the worlds top tourist destination, with over 50 million visitors a year.
Last year 190,000 newly built holiday homes were sold in Spain.
Half of these holiday homes were sold to foreigners who spent a record 7.2 billion.

What I love about the Almeria region is that it still offers the holiday-maker, the part-time resident or the retiree a place in real Spain. Compared to the Costa del Sol or the Costa Blanca, this region offers its visitors an authenticity that over-development elsewhere has destroyed forever. As people become more discerning, I think this will prove increasingly attractive.

You cannot do better than invest in a new hotspot, in a country with a strong track record and at prices which are 70,000 below the market value. As such, we dont expect supply to last for long, so call our hotline on 01273 609 267 to reserve your 30% under-market-value property now. As usual, Ready 2 Rent will offer a full team of letting agents, lawyers, accountants and mortgage brokers to make your deal as hassle-free as possible.

“Begin it Now!” 
 
" Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness. Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.
 
Begin it now!"
 
Now according to my sources – this is only part of a quote from Goethe and I’m sure that someone must have the complete quote and know if the only thing was written by the great man.
 
That said:
 
Let’s look at why this quote is just such a powerful message to start this week, in fact, any week!
 
It’s true, isn’t it that in any decision making process - until we have truly and definitely made a commitment – we hesitate. We keep revisiting the factors – we keep mulling over the ideas – we keep procrastinating!
 
But – once the decision is finally made – then we spring into action.
 
That’s why ‘decision making tools’ can be so useful in everything we do.
 
Then the second part – begin it!
 
Oh boy – does that resonate with me! Action is the key.
 
What is it that you’ve been hesitating to do?
What is it that you’ve always wanted to do?
What is it that you know would make your heart sing if you were doing it?
 
And can you just begin it – now?
 
As the quote says “Boldness has genius, power and magic in it”
 
Just imagine that genius unleashed, that power in action, that magic working magically for you!
