Investment Property in Ukraine

Fresh attitudes, bold fashions and a liberal property market make the Ukraine the dark horse of the latest crop of emerging destinations favoured by the overseas investor. Although the capital Kiev is frenetic, the outer regions and mountainous interiors combine European chic with a charm that is distinctly Russian.

With capital growth steady at 25%, the Ukraine’s economy is one of the fastest growing in the world. Property development is focused on ski resorts, as more Britons flock to the previously undiscovered Carpathian Mountains. The boom in ski property in the Ukraine is starting where the Bulgarian boom left off, with high standards of construction, good quality materials and an eager and willing rental market.

The Buying Process

The buying process in the Ukraine is relatively straightforward. Typically off-plan apartments are sold with an endless lease. There are typically no ground rents to pay and no expiry on the lease. Your rights are exactly the same as with freehold property ownership.

Climate

The Ukraine is best enjoyed in spring and autumn although skiers are best visiting in January and February, when the snow is plentiful and the numerous ski runs that criss-cross the mountain range fully open.
