Dear international property investor,I'd like to introduce you to a unique opportunity... it's a solid way to min imize your investment risk and maximize your profit potential.Let me explain.For the average investor, 2008 was a bad year. Global markets declined more than 50%, while the US market fell more than 45%. According to Fidelity Investments, the average 401k retirement plan balance dropped 27%, despite higher contributions by employees. Many investors reported losing between 30% and 50% of their portfolio value. But that's mostly because the average investor limited himself to the traditional US securities markets. What I want to introduce you to are global investments that have nothing to do with the stock market.
I've found that international real estate investing is the best steady source of growth and income in today's volatile financial world. And I use the term "steady source of growth and income" because that's the primary objective of real estate investing. True, double- and triple-digit returns are more exciting. In fact, a number of presenters at this conference have realized such transactions recently.But no serious investor should count on a steady stream of triple-digit returns over the long haul. You should look at smart real estate investing as a sound strategy and a solid process that can bring you steady financial growth and security. The International Real Estate Investment Forum is the best way that I can think of to build or refine your own process...it's the best way to position yourself for security and success. Particularly in a time when the global economy is so volatile.
We all know that the value of real es tate has fallen dramatically in the US. And with today's credit situation and continuing foreclosures, it's sure to be a few years before it gets back on track. But the situation is very different in other parts of the world. In fact, there are a number of high-performing markets today where real estate is producing excellent returns. Here are just a few recent examples:• Panama City: where I recently sold a condo in Bayfront Tower, and netted a 113% annualized gain... there are plenty of overseas markets where you can do the same.
