When it comes to purchasing properties abroad, new developments can present desirable opportunities that balance investment potential with alluring lifestyles. Whether searching for a vacation home, a golden visa opportunity, a full-time residence or an investment property, broadening a home search globally can lead to prime opportunities in unexpected locales.
Showcasing exceptional new developments around the world is the mission of Destinations by LeadingRE, the new development marketing program from Leading Real Estate Companies of the World®. Destinations works with international developers and with LeadingRE member companies seeking to elevate global visibility for new developments they represent.
LeadingRE member firms also engage with Destinations as a way to introduce clients to extraordinary properties outside their market. “Being able to make a warm introduction for your client to an over-water villa in the Maldives or a penthouse with views of the Mediterranean, for example, is a welcome advantage for our agents who understand the value of global connections and having contacts who understand the nuances of foreign investment in the local market,” says Tasos Stavrou, LeadingRE vice president, Global Business Development, who heads Destinations by LeadingRE.
Many of the developments that Destinations represents are off-plan, and, according to Stavrou, there are numerous advantages to buying before a development is complete. “When you purchase at an early stage, you benefit from lower pricing and have greater choices for customization. You have your pick of units, and many developers offer special incentives. Further, buying new construction gives you the benefit of modern building standards, which may include sustainable materials, advanced home technologies and the latest design trends,” says Stavrou.
Here, we highlight a sampling of the new developments from Destinations by LeadingRE.
