Owning investment properties abroad is a popular investment strategy for those that like to invest in real estate. There are distinct advantages to this type of investment because your money can be diversified, be a passive source of income and allows you to have a few vacation perks as well.
Investment in real estate is one of the investment vehicles that can be used to move us from one point of financial state to another. Vehicles such as money market, capital market or conventional business are other forms of vehicles that can be used for wealth creation and financial freedom. However, the unique feature of investment in real estate is the fact that apart from regular monthly and annual yield in form of income from rent when such property is commercialized, there is yield associated with appreciation on the value of the property at the point when such property is sold or traded off. This is similar to what is obtainable in the capital market. However, in view of the recent happening in the capital market which has made this investment option less attractive, investment in real estate is a good window available for investors looking for alternative investment with the aim of effective portfolio diversification.
We encourage our customers to build investment that will guarantee the following depending on their need:
One of the big advantages of this strategy is that you can diversify your holdings. When you put money into domestic real estate, your investment might go well. However, there is a chance that the entire domestic real estate market could suffer. When this happens, all of the real estate that you own will decline in value and it can be very difficult to sell your property. When you spread your money around into different real estate markets, you can avoid this problem. Many times, when the Nigerian economy is doing poorly and the real estate market is down, other countries may still have a booming real estate market. The other properties will continue to increase in value and will bring up the value of your total portfolio even if the domestic market is not looking good.
This investment strategy also can provide you with passive income. When you set up an investment property abroad, you can bring in consistent money from rent. The best part is, you do not have to manage the investment yourself. You can hire a property management company to do everything for you. They will take care of the house and hire people to mow the lawn, take care of maintenance and repairs and collect rent for you. They will send you the rent check every month and you will not necessarily have to do much of the work. This is a type of investment that is ideal for individuals who are close to retirement and only need a passive source of income
Another bonus that comes with owning investment properties in the United States isthat you can have free accommodations when you go on vacation. You can simply stay at one of your properties. You do not have to rent or get a hotel room. In some cases, when you stay at a property long enough, it can help out with the tax situation as well. The residence might qualify as a second home which could shift the tax burden in your favor. Many people like having a house waiting on them when they travel instead of going through the process of checking into a hotel.
Just as having all of your money in Naira investment means you’re at the mercy of a single economy, having 100 percent of your investments in Naira means your investment future is fully dependent on the fate of the Nigerian Naira. With this product you are able to build an investment portfolio that is dollar denominated.
Owning property in the United States can give you a “foot in the door” to the United States. In some States, owning a property gives you residency status and you have some benefits that ordinary visitors do not have.
It is against this background that Flobal Trust Limited , Nigeria in collaboration with Flobal Capital LLC , USA is giving the opportunity for interested investors to invest in real estate in the United State with as low as $25,000 equivalent of N11,625,000 with average monthly income from $800 equivalent of N372,000. This income figure estimate is net of property tax but does not include unforeseen repairs that may arise on the property in the life cycle of this investment option. Our projection for payback of capital invested in such property in between 3 to 4 years.
Above dollar investment option makes sense today in view of =N= devaluation which has made returns on investment in real estate in Nigeria to be less attractive.
