Lake Como proving popular

Article Date : 03 July 2007

Italy's Lake Como is proving popular among buyers setting their sights on the Italian property market.

The region is showing signs of increasing popularity of late, bolstered largely by a surge in budget flights to Milan. This increase in affordable travel has led to better connectivity, in turn making Lake Como and its surrounding areas more appealing on a practical level.

In addition the development of new build properties gives investors a wider choice of properties to choose from, while a healthy level of tourism promises steady tenant demand during holiday seasons.

Tourist activity in the region includes sailing and windsurfing, while winter sports are becoming increasingly popular during the winter months.

One specialist, Linda Travella, asserts that local properties could offer strong buy-to-let returns.

"The increase in cheap flights from the UK to Milan's three airports has made a big difference," she told the Telegraph.

"Properties here have a fantastic rental income."

Meanwhile the Association of International Property Professionals maintains that rural areas in Italy are also proving popular among British investors.
