The organisers of Ireland's
largest independent Foreign
Investment Property Show
announced today that the
Investment Property Advisory
Summit will return by popular
demand in May.
Leading experts in the fields
of economics, tax, law and
investment will make detailed
presentations and outline case
studies to a number of
professional advisors from
several relevant disciplines
attending the summit at the
City West Hotel on the 25th
May.
The goal of the
summit is to provide a
consultative platform for
property, financial and legal
intermediaries as well as an
open forum to discuss what
lies ahead for Irish investors
in overseas markets.
Guest Speaker, Jim Power,
Chief Economist, Friends
First, stated “As the domestic
market continues to adjust,
many Irish investors will look
further afield for
opportunities to spend surplus
funds in growth areas.
Particularly popular amongst
investors will be foreign
property. In 2007 this could
exceed 10 billion Euro being
put into both residential and
commercial properties.
The
symposium, announced today,
provides advisors with the
perfect opportunity to get up
to speed on market trends and
future prospects for
investment in various
geographic regions while at
the same time providing down
to earth advice on the tax and
legal issues which
intermediaries must be
familiar with to advise
clients professionally and
with confidence.”
Many of those attending the
conference are responsible for
providing consumers (their
clients) with independent
legal, tax and title advice in
whichever jurisdiction they
are purchasing.
Conor Leech,
Investment Property Show
Organiser, commented ” This
market is set to continue to
grow and it is important that
everyone involved should
better understand the markets
both at home and abroad.
Considerable time will
be given over to discussing
where the best returns can be
expected in the coming years,
with case studies and top tips
provided. Acquisition and
recurring costs, tax,
inheritance and legal issues,
syndication and commercial
versus residential property
matters will be addressed.
This conference is designed to
provide a forum for everyone
in the industry to pool their
experience and resources for
the benefit of the consumer.”
Many of the larger
institutions have teams
dedicated to keeping up to
speed with the various markets
but many of the smaller
operators don't have the time
or resources to dedicate to
this area. This event is the
perfect opportunity for both
the large institutions and
smaller independent advisors,
from all disciplines, to get
together and pool resources.
This conference will cover
many very important issues and
will aid those in attendance
to acquire an understanding of
the risks and opportunities
associated with this growth
industry.
Hosted by John Bowman the
guest speakers include,
amongst others, Jim Power,
Chief Economist, Friends
First; Diarmaid Condon,
Independent Property
Consultant and Journalist; Tim
Rahilly, Director – Tax &
Legal Services,
PriceWaterhouseCoopers (PWC);
Nick Powlesland, Head of
European Valuation, Knight
Frank and Henry Davis,
Managing Director,
International Property.
