Boston, MA, December 19, 2011 - Reports that alternative property investment could become increasingly popular have been highlighted and welcomes by Alternative Asset Analysis (AAA).
Many investors are still looking for safer places to put their cash aside from stock markets that are still feeling the pinch from continuing economic uncertainty. Alternative investment advocacy group, AAA, said that this has led more people to consider real estate as a possible asset class in which to invest.
Phil Clark of Kames Capital agrees, telling Property Wire: “My view is that 2012 will be every bit as challenging as 2011, however, there are still many good opportunities for property investors to make well informed decisions.” He is urging people to consider investing in property with an emphasis on lettings as the rental market continues to fly.
He explained, “In particular I believe investors should consider a greater exposure to alternative sectors such as residential property, student accommodation or healthcare property. One of the key attractions of these alternative sectors is they generally have a high income yield, an ability to track inflation and have low vacancy rates.”
The increase in rental demand is being particularly felt in the South East, where Clarke believes the need to own homes will reduce over the coming years. AAA’s analysis partner, Anthony Johnson agreed, adding, “There is no doubt that the scarcity of mortgages is contributing to an influx in young, wealthy people who are looking to rent smart homes instead of buying."
AAA supports interest in alternative asset classes as a means of diversifying investment portfolios against risk. It also supports ethical investments, such as forestry schemes where investors can buy up sections of forests in Brazil and elsewhere and sell the mature trees for timber within ten years or so. “Schemes such as the one operated by Greenwood Management in Brazil offer investors good rates of return , tax breaks and the peace of mind that only an ethical investment can generate,“ claimed Mr Johnson.
