EU real estate strategies? Liveio.com is a new real estate portal aimed at helping real estate agents and individuals to buy real estate properties in Europe. We will also discuss about a few real estate market advices mixed with some analysis of 2019-2020 real estate market trends in Europe.
The interesting thing here is that Brexit is something that is more inside European investors than global investors coming from places like Asia or the Americas, for example. 83% of real estate professionals believe that there will be a difference in economic growth between the UK and the EU during 2020. In fact, more than 70% believe UK’s capacity to attract international investors will decrease after the Brexit date. Even though there is also social inequity, with the lack of social housing and senior care, this won’t be the main concern during 2020. Instead, the main focus will be on affordability as the prices are going up. According to PWC Global Trends Report, almost 50% of the interviewees believe prime assets are over-priced. This issue is especially relevant in markets like Spain and Portugal where the average wages are lower. However these markets remain pretty interesting for foreign investors as the prices per m2 are still lower when compared to it’s European peers.
In France, Paris continues to attract strong investment and offers rental yields of between 3-4%. With the 2024 Paris Olympics and Grand Paris – currently the largest transport infrastructure in Europe – on the horizon, things are expected to remain strong. Further south, Lyon is experiencing strong economic growth and job creation which is generating demand for properties. Many people now consider Germany as one of the best countries to invest in for 2019. In fact, major cities like Berlin, Hamburg, Frankfurt, and Munich are making the top-ten lists of best places to invest in real estate. Rents in all four cities will likely increase between 6-7% by 2020. An investor has the possibility to either invest in very expensive property in established European markets – but it is a secured investment at a low return – or to invest in those markets where prices have fallen but are recovering. Investors who are willing to take a bit more risk could have a higher return but not without taking a gamble. Elsewhere in Europe, there are areas in the north, south, east, and central that are up and coming and represent good opportunities for investors willing to take more of a risk. In Italy, both Milan and Rome are recovering from uncertainty and are seeing growth driven by huge national investment. Spain, too, is on the up after a shaky period. Both Madrid and Barcelona have witnessed a decline in vacancies and an increase in prime rents. In the Netherlands, rents are rising higher than expected in cities such as Amsterdam and Rotterdam; this is likely to continue. See more info Real Estate Platform.

Why settle for a platform that are just mainly constructed for the private buyer? Why not also design a service that include all partys at the negotiation table? And while we’re at it – why make distinction between the market place for selling and renting out? Liveio is a platform equally designed to meet the needs of the professional broker as the house hunting private individual. Motivated by the notion that the boundaries are nonexistent we added the opportunity for agents to pinpoint and establish contact with the right clients for the real-estate in question.
