Investors, however, need to be vigilant about what and where they are buying.
While many developers and agencies are steering prospective investors towards flats in newly-built apartment blocks outside of the city centre, we believe a much better opportunity is offered by historic properties in the increasingly up-market areas in Pest’s District V and VI.
In such areas, it is currently possible to purchase a completely refurbished property in a richly-detailed pre-war building for €2,400-€3,200 per square metre, roughly equivalent to the price of characterless flats in “cookie-cutter” towers. Meanwhile, certain exclusive properties with river views or other notable characteristics can reach €4,500 per sqm.
In addition to being of far better quality, such flats are generally much easier to let to the foreign managers who remain the most sought-after tenants for owners of investment properties, and offer the best potential for long-term capital appreciation.
