£ Pound Sterling at a 26-year low !


The dollar fell to record lows against the euro and several major currencies with news of a US Federal Reserve interest rate cut plus record oil prices approaching $100 a barrel.

Several of our clients are now benefiting from the weak dollar and strong sterling; with Florida sale prices in certain instances already substantially well below "market value" (upwards to 40% below the price of 3 years ago) plus the current exchange rate possibilities (an exchange rate of 2.06 has recently been achieved), this really is the time to buy !

The tide is turning! We are experiencing a trend that sees droves of experienced UK property investors turning their backs on UK property investment and they are looking further afield to places such as Florida, Panama and Turkey......

In the UK we understand the Nationwide building society's October house price index is expected to show the rate of increase in UK property sales slowing to 0.3 percent on the month and 8.6 percent on the year.

With the past weekend only just behind us after a frantically busy 'Property Investor & Homebuyer Show' in London, its now time for us to head north to the Midlands !

This coming weekend we are at the NEC in Birmingham to exhibit at 'A Place In The Sun Live' which as you may know is billed as 'The largest overseas property exhibition' !
The event is set to be full of fun and entertainment plus more importantly its a place where you can find out all there is to know about a possible purchase in Florida Panama or Turkey by meeting my team and I.

We are hoping to be joined by a few of our overseas colleagues; my Florida business partner Allen Jackson the crazy American guy who you may have seen 'sitting on the gator' and presenting our Florida DVD is hoping to attend !

From Turkey Mhemet from Ersa, the most respected firm of builders in the Antalya region of the Mediterranean coast plus my daughter Lisa who lives and works in Side looking after our real estate business interests there, are also joining us

If you can do likewise we would love to meet you and we shall be found on Stand H6.

We are bringing with us some information on a few 'specials' for the show as recently we have carried out some most recent successful negotiations with a few builders!
As you know our 3 main areas of concentration are on property located in; Florida Turkey & Panama for this is where we consider the VERY BEST profitable purchase investments exist albeit each has its own criteria reason which we are happy to share with you !

As we have a limited number of complimentary tickets available we are issuing these on a 'first come basis so just call us if you want them !'

We hope to see you there !

Following is the exhibition/seminar schedule:

'The Property Investor Show'
London Excel, One Western Gateway, Royal Victoria Dock, London E16 1XL

Friday 21st - Sunday 23rd September 2007
Stand 635

Turkey Seminar 2.45 pm (45 mins)
Friday 21st September - Room 4

Is Turkey the New Spain ?
Just a short 4-hour flight away from the UK where the east meets the west, Turkey is a rare jewel indeed. The country is rich in history, has a diverse culture and is fast becoming a major tourist destination for European and British visitors alike. Its combination of a wonderful climate, affordable living costs and low property prices is luring many investors and retirees who seek an attractive destination and new way of life.

Florida Seminar 12 noon (45 mins)
Saturday 22nd September – Room 5


Is it pain or gain in Florida ?
With considerable media and press speculation about the current US housing slowdown, discover the truth about property sales and current investment opportunities in Florida, the most popular US state with British property buyers ? What does the future hold and is this a good time to buy ?

The facts & stats will be clarified from my perspective as an experienced and active Florida real estate specialist.

Panama Seminar 1 pm (45 mins)
Sunday 23rd September - Room 5


Panama - A land of opportunity ?
With massive financial investment currently pouring into Panama, the Central American country at the international crossroads of the western hemisphere, there surely must be very good reason; besides its political stability, tax incentives and visa retirement programme, there are many other reasons why the country is currently experiencing an unprecedented economic and housing boom. Although mostly South American and US buyers readily recognise the investment opportunities, the amount of European & British buyers to date has been low, although more recently the numbers have been steadily rising !

This is a truly exciting investment market and our real estate sales experience and my personal purchase activities within the country over the past few years have taught me much !

If you can’t get along to this show please feel free to call us about any matter whatsoever on 08456 444 747 …we can still let you know about the 'special deals' that we have negotiated !
Oh and we’ll be in Birmingham at the end of the month so we’ll let you have details about this show shortly !
