A friend who works in this area has offered me this opurtunity - What do you think? He says he has been through it and Knight Knox have sent there top man over to Spain to grill the bank and developer etc and its water tight...

Reservation required: £2,000 + £1,000 Legal Fees Purchase

Finance: £100% you only pay a total of £3,000

Finance arranged by: Bank of Gibraltar

Yield: 8% per annum. Paid quarterly (est 9k per annum at current rates)

Exit strategy: 15% of purchase price on compulsory buy - back

Contract: Confirms compulsory buy back by developer

Confirms all and any payments for management fees, mortgage payments, costs, tax, insurance

Personal use: 4 weeks per annum

What in the first instance looked like an investment too good to be true we have now copies of building Licenses, Ownership Titles and confirmation that the development has been “legally built”. This opportunity is based solely on raising a mortgage; your only payment is £3,000 or £4,000. Whilst the Title and Mortgage is in your name the Contract with the Developer states that they are responsible for all payments relating to the finance, fees, insurances and for dissolving the mortgage after the 3 year. Worst case scenario, we see, in this investment is if the Developer goes into Liquidation which would mean either, servicing the mortgage yourself, selling the property or simply handing the key back to the bank and walk away from the apartment – bear in mind that even on £145,000 mortgage with rental incomes being paid quarterly your initial £3,000 will have been covered. We think this represents a very good opportunity and once Clients have understood the investment we don’t see it hanging round long, Knight Knox continue to undertake our own additional due diligence to make sure that the information we supply continues to be accurate and up to date. Our Advisers can discuss this project in greater deal directly with you so please call your Adviser today while we still have availability

This deal is amazing and I seriously think you need to look at it, basically you will have your initial investment back within 4 months after that its a nice steady income stream with a guaranteed buy back.......oh and the use for 4 weeks a year inc Golf.

145k isn't much, why is somebody not buying it outright then renting it out to people to make the claimed (9k a year for your 3k ) money back themselves?

If its too good to be true then it usually is.

I SERIOUSLY doubt such a good deal where you get £9k a year back off a £3k investment really exists in these current markets.

You sure the 9k isn't on the whole property.

An 8% yield on your 3000 would only be 240 quid.

Either way, if it sounds too good it will be.

The spanish property market is saturated with new developments that arent selling, a mate bought a few apartments off plan, seemed like good deal at the time but he lsot over 40 grand in the end!
Would steer clear imo.

Yup, it all sounds a little too good to be true, would stay well clear.
