It is an opportune time to invest in a luxury high-end property. The Maltese market in this sector is evolving and buoyant with several market niches and trends showing considerable signals of strength.

Over the last ten years Malta has positioned itself as a leader in the upmarket arena. There are numerous five star hotels as well as an excellent selection of lifestyle developments that compliment the category.
Residency, Corporate Incentives, Highly Qualified Persons and other programmes have also been an additional factor that has fuelled the real estate market. Businesses in the sectors of Internet Gaming, Software development and Finance (as well as others) have flourished making Malta an extremely attractive investment choice for business as well as pleasure.
The Maltese high-end property market has evidently seen a boost with these luxury developments that are also available to overseas buyers. A major sign of this market being healthy is that the majority of buyers within these developments are locals.
In order to incentivise foreign ownership the Government created a new classification for certain premium developments called Special Designated Areas (SDAs). Owners of properties within these developments enjoy the same privileges as the Maltese buyers where an overseas buyer may purchase more than one unit as well as rent out for profit without having to apply for specific permits.
Properties outside SDAs are no less desirable, with luxury seafront apartments and superb Villas in Sliema, St Julian’s, Madliena, High Ridge, Ta ‘Xbiex, Marsascala and other sea side resorts or areas that offer quality surroundings and excellent return on investment.
Villas, Bungalows, Houses of Character and original 400-year-old Farmhouses are sought after and are ideal for those that prefer to be away from the hustle and bustle of cosmopolitan Malta. These properties are found all over the Island.
As the top-selling agents in the most popular developments such as, Portomaso the Marina Development, Tigne Point and Fort Cambridge, we are in a position to guide you statistically on where is best to place your investment, whether you are looking for a residence, second home or a rental investment.
Other Special Designated Areas include; St Angelo Mansions (Vittoriosa), Madliena Village (Madliena), Pendergardens, (St.Julian’s), Ta’ Monita Residence (Marsascala), Tas-Sellum Residence (Mellieha), Smart City (Kalkara), Kempinski Residences (San Lawrenz, Gozo), Fort Chambray (Ghajnsielem, Gozo) and Vista Point (Marsalforn, Gozo).
Traditionally all above-mentioned property developments yield an above average return on capital however this also depends on the way you purchase. Your purchase will depend on the guidance that you may choose in the form of a real estate agent.
