While rental yields may seem moderate in the current economic climate, continued low interest rates are likely to ensure market stability as property remains the favoured investment.
Interest rates play a complex role in the property market. On the one hand, they help set the price of property by dictating the affordability of mortgage repayments. On the other side of the interest rate spread, bank deposit rates are eyed with interest, since these are instrumental in driving yield based property investments.
Currently it is well known that deposited funds in a Thai savings account will provide virtually no return, and so property rental yields as low as three or four percent still look attractive.
Dexter Norville, director of property and asset management, Jones Lang LaSalle Management Research said, “Nobody can expect to command the rental yields that they may have enjoyed two or three years ago, as rents have moderated. However, one thing remains constant. A decent unit in a decent building will still be just that when the economy upturns.”
Martin Foster of DSR Asset Management added
“The key to making the current economic situation work for you is to choose your investment wisely and look at the local factors influencing rental yields. Local factors are prime for determining rental yields, especially if investing in resort or tourist areas.
“He continued “Very often investors look at a global forecast for a country or region and they miss many opportunities, a good agent will be able to guide even the most wary of investors to these opportunities”.
Worth noting are the excellent rental guarantee schemes currently available throughout the region that take these local factors into account and take some of the uncertainty out of your investments.
