10 Great Places Around The Globe To Own Property

5) The Algarve, Portugal

The Portuguese market has been all over the place in past decades, seeing a drop, and then recent stability. What makes The Algarve an attractive investment are the variables that seem to stay fixed, as well as the growing stability seen in the last few years. Once again we look at the British and their need of a relaxing holiday, as well as the surreal beauty Portugal has to offer. The British presence is substantial, whether as home owners, rental properties or as people off on “holiday”. The appeal of beautiful beaches and the bright colors dotting the landscape bring in more than its share of tourism. The Algarve is especially attractive for investors in that it is still coming out of a downturn and prices are relatively reasonable. It has the appeal of that $5 stock you didn’t buy ten years ago, that is now over $60, and you can’t help but kick yourself at not taking the opportunity.
