It is, however, a cyclical market and one as subject to the laws of supply and demand as any other sector of the economy. Experts will advise that prospective investors should take pains to carefully research the local market and view the business as a medium to long term project. Viewed in that light, it remains a very solid bet and will continue as a popular option for a diverse cross-section of the population. This edition includes dozens of properties which should appeal to those motivated by high rental returns as well as those whose primary concern is capital growth. It also includes details of experienced agents who have made this sector a speciality. So if you're new to the market and need a reliable expert to lead you through the maze, if you're a seasoned player and know exactly what your looking for, or if you live overseas and need a professional all-in-one 'hands off' management service to take care of your portfolio this is the place to begin your search. Learning To Invest 20 Jul 2005 Thinking about investing in property but new to the business? Investment guru Simon Shinerock explains why it can pay to learn from the experts... Simon Shinerock More and more people these days are coming to the conclusion that the only way for them to have a chance of achieving financial security is to buy property. But is it better to leap in and learn through experience or should you attend one of the growing number of seminars on the subject? Simon Shinerock, the founder and Chief Executive of Choices Acquisitions , a very popular auction-buying service for investors, says more and more people are looking for reliable information and advice before they take the plunge. " Our regular estate agency business which started in 1989 manages over 1000 properties as well as dealing with millions of pounds of property sales and mortgages every month. " In addition, for the past four years, we have been providing auction information to potential investors, as well as sourcing investment and buy to let property from developers and agents for our clients. " Gradually it has become evident that many potential clients want more than information and advice, especially at the beginning - they want education. " In response to this need we have created a down to earth two hour seminar to introduce the novice investor to the business and to share with them some of the important lessons we have learned through our own experience." What You'll Learn The seminar business, can, of course, be an expensive route to take but Choices reckon they can teach the basics and introduce participants to their services for much less that the thousands some charge. " We are aware of two day seminars which are available at a cost of £2000 or more but we believe that what we provide for £50 is enough of a taster for most people and we have been very pleased with the positive feedback we have received, " says Simon. Seminars take place on a Saturday between 11.30 and 2.00pm at Choices modern Smallfield office near London Gatwick Airport. To book your place please call 01342 840000 or complete the email response form on their company information page Choices Acquisitions seminars, says Simon, will tell you about 1. The research we do 2. The evaluation and analysis techniques we have developed 3. Our contacts with developers and agents and how we have made them 4. How we find distress sales 5. A hot new area for property investment in the UK 6. How we can help you buy property below the market value Below are some case studies from Choices: Case Study - Buying at auction A client wanted to start a buy-to-let portfolio on a low cost basis, as they were tight on funding we identified Liverpool as a good area, we highlighted six properties at an upcoming auction all of which represented good value based on their likely selling prices (about 30 per cent above guide price and 20 per cent below market price). Our experience has shown that it is pointless going to auction with only one property in mind in these circumstances as the chance of failure is too high. We are able to arrange funding in principle from a short term lender should our client be unable to arrange a buy to let mortgage in time. At the auction we were able to secure the third lot on our list. The client needed to do some cosmetic work but the estimated return on their deposit and costs once let was 25%, on top of which the property had a market value of 15% more than cost. Incidentally at the same auction we were able to secure two more properties for other clients on a broadly similar basis. Case Study - Buying Off Plan We are constantly looking for Off Plan opportunities on behalf of many clients. Through a trade contact of ours we heard about a development which was coming to an end. The developer had seven flats remaining and was prepared to sell them at a 15 per cent discount to market value. After checking the local rental market and speaking to agent contacts we were able to place five of these properties with three clients all of whom were looking at long term rental and capital growth. Case Study - Overseas Property We heard of some excellent opportunities for high yield apartment hotel investments on Miami Beach. We went to Miami to check out the local market and were able to get in on the ground floor of a renovation of a boutique Art Deco Hotel right on South Beach. Based on the figures we were able to obtain this investment should return up to 40 per cent on deposit plus costs plus there is built in capital growth of 20 per cent based on current market values. Each unit is $395000 with a 20 per cent deposit required and guaranteed finance on the balance, the developer is guaranteeing the first year return following the renovation and the investor shares in 60 per cent of the nightly rental ($400 per night minimum 70 per cent occupancy). As a further bonus, the owner can stay in their hotel suite at any time for as long as they want. Case Study - Agency contacts Over 95% of all property sold in this country is sold through estate agents. It therefore makes sense for us to establish good relationships with agents in areas where we expect capital growth and good rental returns. We were approached by one of our contacts on the south coast in respect of a sea front property available through an offshore tax exile who wanted to sell without publicity. We were able to secure the property which comprised of several apartments on behalf of several clients. Some of the units are going to be let, some sold on and some used as holiday homes after renovation.

We have a diverse economy, a highly educated population, progressive leadership and a beautiful setting on the high plains of the Colorado Rocky Mountains. While most people are under the impression that Colorado, including Denver is hip deep in snow all winter long, happy residents know the truth. The snow gets deep in the high country while Denver enjoys sunny, mild weather with only occasional snowy days to break up the boredom! Over the past decade Denver has enjoyed a renaissance, adding a world class international airport, DIA, a new Bronco football stadium, Invesco Field at Mile High, baseball park, Coors Field for the Colorado Rockies, a massive entertainment facility and home of the Stanley Cup winning Colorado Avalanche are just of few of the new additions to the city. These days more history is in the making with the construction of additional Light Rail lines and the infamous T-REX the construction project we all love to hate. As a commuter myself, I love watching the road change each week as they progress continues. It won't be long before it is done and we will be one more step into a modern future far from the Wild West Frontier Days of the past. Denver Economy Denver's diverse economy in a variety of industries make a home in Colorado; telecommunications, aerospace, financial services, computer software, biomedical and many other high tech sectors offer employment here. Major employers in Denver include Comcast, Level 3 Communications, Qwest Communications, Lockheed Martin, Xcel Energy and Sun Microsystems. Metropolitan Denver doubled in population from 1960 to 2000. The actual growth rate was 2.4%. Interestingly the age of the population is now very close to the same age of the U.S. median population age of 34.4 years. Denver real estate The cost of living in Denver is less than most major cities in the U.S. but higher than many. Housing availability is currently very good, with single family homes beginning in the high $100,000 and going up from there.
