Frequently Asked Questions

What's a good ROI on European real estate?

Mid-cycle, leveraged buy-to-let in major European cities historically returns 6-10% annualised including rent and appreciation. Below 4% is bond-like; above 12% usually means heavy leverage or optimistic growth assumptions.

Should I use cash or leverage to buy?

Leverage boosts return when prices rise and rent covers costs, but it also amplifies losses if prices drop or vacancy spikes. As a rule, leverage works when your stress-tested cash flow stays positive at +3pp on mortgage rate.
