Following extensive research into many overseas property markets we concluded that Germany and specifically Berlin offered the best investment proposition. The reasons for this decision would include:

• Germany is Europe's largest economy.
• Euro zone, no currency risks.
• Strong legal system, good property titles.
• Very strong rental market for residential property.
• Yields of more than 6% can be achieved from residential units without taking into account any capital appreciation.
• When compared with prices in other European cities such as Dublin, London or Paris, property prices in Germany are still much lower per square metre.
• All apartments are rented completely unfurnished and unequipped and tenants clear and paint apartment on vacating.
• House Management companies deal with tenants, maintenance and all day to day issues involved in running apartment buildings.
• Rental leases on German commercial property provide insurance against inflation and interest rates as they typically include inflation indexed clauses.
• Germany is less vulnerable to shocks in the US economy as the US accounts for less than 10% of German exports.

* Sale of commercial properties.
