Global tourism 'important for property investors'

Many overseas property investors are highly dependent on the global tourism sector, according to experts.

Foreign Property Buyer stated that the industry is vital for foreign property owners, as it dictates issues such as demand for property in certain areas.

This, it said, is an important factor for buy-to-let investors, as leisure travellers can generate considerable rental returns.

In addition, the website suggested that tourism also has a strong knock-on effect on many housing markets, as demand can push up house prices and allow investors to earn a profit.

Foreign Property Buyer commented: "The industry is incredibly important to many foreign property investors who are continually on the look-out for the next hotspot."

The online portal added that tourism also affects the accessibility of many locations, as demand for services to a certain place will determine the frequency of flights on offer.

This comes after Kayak.co.uk stated that growing economic uncertainty is not stopping consumers from booking trips abroad.

Holidaymakers stated that instead of depriving themselves of a trip abroad, they would attempt to offset the financial impact by cutting back elsewhere.
