Investing in new-build property, a smart investment

Whether you want to live in a newly built home yourself or choose to invest in property to rent, real estate remains a stable and tangible way to build wealth.

The combination of rising demand for rented accommodation, tax incentives and the continued scarcity in the housing market is once again making investing in new construction a particularly interesting option.

Tax benefit: 6% VAT for investors

The government encourages redevelopment projects via a reduced VAT rate of 6% on demolition and reconstruction. While previously this only applied to individuals moving into the property themselves, investors can now also benefit from it, provided they meet certain conditions:

  • The property must be let residentially for at least 15 years
  • Or rented to a social housing company

This tax advantage significantly reduces entry costs and offers investors an opportunity to bolster their returns, especially in a market that is cautiously gaining momentum.

Reasons to invest in real estate

  • Asset growth: 
    Property values often rise faster than inflation, meaning your wealth grows while you sleep. On sale this can result in a significant capital gain.
  • Full ownership:
    Unlike shares, you fully own your property. This tangible asset provides the opportunity to take immediate action.
  • Stable income: 
    Historically, both property values and rents have hardly ever fallen. On the contrary, they generally remain stable or increase.
  • High demand for rented housing: 
    Scarcity in the rental market is causing rents to rise. With stricter standards, older rental properties are disappearing from the market, increasing the demand for new-build housing.
  • Returns in three ways:
    - Monthly rental income
    - Added value on sale
    - Tax optimisation
  • Protection from inflation: 
    Property prices and rental income rise with inflation, meaning you maintain your purchasing power.
  • Reductions in costs: 
    Maintenance costs, mortgage interest and depreciation can be taken into account for tax purposes, providing tax benefits.
  • Finance:
    With a smaller equity stake and a larger portion borrowed through a mortgage, you can still make a substantial investment.
  • Long-term yield increase:
    After the mortgage has been paid off, rental income continues to come in while monthly costs fall significantly. This makes for an attractive passive income.

Because of these advantages, real estate offers a solid and profitable investment with opportunities for both immediate and long-term financial growth.
