UK buyers surge into Europe's closer-to-home markets
British overseas property buyers are becoming more interested in owning
homes in nearby Europe than further away as transport costs increase,
according to Rightmove Overseas.
The UK-based listings website’s search report for May showed an overall
increase in searches for overseas property of 15.3% compared to April.
The top movers included Poland, which broke into the top 20 for the first
time as searches increase by 248%. Elsewhere, the German region of Bavaria
had 82% more searches month-on-month and 17 out of Italy’s 20 regions
recorded increased user activity. In France, the Dordogne, Aquitaine and
Limousin regions all received increases in enquiries, with 74%, 47% and 39%
respectively.
Shaheem Golamy, head of Overseas at Rightmove, told OPP this week: “After
the bank holidays in April, searches for overseas property increased by 15%
in May as people settled back into their normal routine.”
“With transport costs reportedly on the increase, it’s logical that people
are starting to look closer to the UK.”
“Properties in France received a healthy growth in interest, especially
properties in the Dordogne region, as users combine looking for a bargain
with a complete change of lifestyle. Properties all over France are being
advertised at realistic pricing levels, with 2 bed houses starting at around
£75,000”
Golamy added that the huge increase in interest in Poland was largely down
to their newly formed partnership with Polish property firm Morizon.pl.
“Rightmove’s new partnership Morizon.pl, which has led to an increase in
properties displayed in Poland, has caught the imagination of UK buyers with
a surge of users gaining access to the attractive investment opportunities
available.”
