Activity Returns To Luxury Property Investments

By Dominic Donaldson

They are called the guilty rich – people who, even though they haven”t suffered from the credit crunch nevertheless feel the need to reign back on spending. Ostentatious displays of wealth seem somewhat tasteless at a time when some people are struggling to pay the bills. This is this reason that has thus far retarded expansion in the realm of luxury property investments.

After a year in which all sales in the real estate sector have been depressed the market is now beginning to see a return to a significant period of activity. Sales have increased across the board and we have seen a period of sustained rises in the regular market. However, eyes are now drawn to the top end of the market where millionaires are beginning to feel comfortable to splash the cash with a raft of luxury property investment.

Some of the more eye catching opportunities demonstrate the progressive move up market of the sports industry. Leading this drive is Formula 1 which is re-establishing itself as the place to go for big businessmen.

Take this opportunity. The recently completed The Autodromo Internacional do Algarve offers a marvelous opportunity for motorsport fans. Work finished in 2008 on the F1 approved circuit. It has already played host to races on the Le Mans circuit and many other motor sport tours. What better way to enjoy life than to peer out of your balcony as a motor race charges by?

The growing interest has brought in a new class of speculators interested in luxury property investment and a return to activity in the purchase of property stocks. The rise bears all the hallmarks, in the eyes of some observers, of an unsustainable bubble provoking fears of another crash. However, many experts believe this is simply the signs of the long awaited return of activity in the premium sector. This recovery is, they insist, genuinely sustainable.

The question of who is right and wrong is something that will rage for a while until one party or the other is proved right. There are signs of a coming correction in the economy as the effects of the government”s quantitive easing program run out. The question is how severe will be the fall out. Are we going to see the much feared double dip recession or is the market for luxury property investment set for a prolonged period of growth. Only time will tell.
