Conditions imposed by the global pandemic continue to inspire people to make changes to their home environment and lifestyle. Many are keen to buy property off-plan that better suits their changing needs.

Those who are scaling up or down, or planning to move to Covid-safe countries like Mauritius will be well advised to buy property off-plan.

4 reasons to invest in property off-plan

1. Reputable developer The most important thing to do is research the developer to establish their track record. Do they deliver according to their agreements with buyers? How many homes have they sold off-plan and delivered within agreed timeframes and according to quality standards? Buying off-plan from a reputable developer, with a proven track record, is a must.
2. Early-bird pricing The first phase of a new development is always competitively priced to get sales going. Buyers who get in early will have the pick of the properties. Therefore they will see accelerated capital growth compared to investors who buy when the development is established. By the time early-bird buyers celebrate the completion of their new home and move in, their investment will already be more valuable.
3. Brand-new home When you buy off-plan from a reputable developer, you spare yourself the stress of managing the design and construction of a new home. In addition, you may customize your home according to the options offered by the developer. This opens up your choice of layout, fixtures, and fittings.
4. Rentability Buying a property off-plan is a good idea whether you plan to rent it out or live in it yourself. You can enjoy a property untarnished by any other resident’s presence. This will also help you secure a higher rental. As you can’t be sure that the dates of transfer and occupation will coincide, you might have to set money aside for occupational rent.
