Beth Collingz, Overseas Sales Director, PLC International Marketing Networks, for Pacific Concord Properties Inc’s Lancaster Brand of Condotels in the Philippines said a closer look at the figures released by the UK’s Office for National Statistic showed that of those who left last year 196000 were British citizens while 189000 were long term migrants who had been living in the UK for more than a year.
The surprising emigration figures begs the question why are people leaving in such numbers. Surprisingly it seems that one of the main reasons for the British to pack their bags is the British weather. Sun starved Brits have had a very wet summer and the grey skies which are meant to be blue have hardly appeared
Collingz advises: Brits are familiar with the idea that we only have two seasons – the winter and July. It seems that this year, with the terrible weather we have experienced in July and throughout the summer, many people are not prepared to sit through a year-long winter.
Recent research from PLC’s UK client base found that favorable weather is a key reason consumers give for retiring to the Philippines. Some 60 per cent of buyers for our Lancaster Condotel units told us that the climate is one of the main attractions for retirement in the Philippines. Interest in Philippine property rose by 70 per cent year-on-year in June and by 60 per cent in July. People buy property abroad for many different reasons but a depressing British summer is enough to spur any overseas property buyer or investor into action commented Collingz.
Fort those considering emigrating to the Philippines and to ensure you get the best possible start in your new home overseas you will want to begin with as much money as possible. One of the key ways of doing this is to carefully choose the method for the transfer of your assets into your new home and availability of local financing for property purchases is a key factor.

Collingz explained that the Self Invested Pension Plan [SIPP] is a personal pension plan but with one very significant difference: administration is separate from investment content, giving the plan holder freedom to choose for himself and change the investments within it. The long-awaited rules on what savers can include in their personal pension plans were unveiled in April 2006 by HM Revenue & Customs. The Guidance Notes confirm that the Self Invested Pension Plan [SIPP] allows holders to invest in hotels such as the Lancaster Brand of Condo Hotels in the Philippines. The only stipulation is that SIPP holders may not stay in their rooms. With more nights available for paying guests, this not surprisingly increases the room owners’ returns. It is estimated there are now more than 70,000 plans holding over £14bn.
A year or so ago, few people in the UK realized that they could manage their Pension Plan portfolios themselves, and even fewer knew that they could invest their SIPP retirement money in homes in the sun which now prove to be among the most popular potential investments to include in a SIPP
If you’re considering using your SIPP to invest in real estate, there are some excellent reasons that you should choose Philippine Condotel investment real estate to drive your retirement portfolio into high profit margins.

While land and housing prices in the U.K. have soared astronomically in the past decade, the world real estate market is a far different story.

When you add in the tax-protected status of investments made in your IRA, and the 12-16% returns through rental income through the Condotel advantage, you have an incredible ROI on a purchase of Philippine Condotel investment real estate enthused Collingz.
What’s the downside about owning Philippine Condotel investment real estate as an SIPP investment? You cannot reside at your investment property as long as the SIPP is titled as the owner of the property. The self directed pension plan rules about benefiting personally from your investments are strict – you are not allowed to make use of any property owned by your SIPP, or you risk losing its tax-protected status and worse yet you could face penalties from HM Customs & Excise. You can, however, rent out your SIPP investment for steady income – putting the profits and cash flow into your SIPP, or sell your Philippine Real Estate investment for immediate profit, as long as those profits remain inside the SIPP.

Beth Collingz says that many new investors are looking to replace failed pension plans and other future saving schemes with a solid investment in Real Estate. Clients are looking for investments that will give them an income for retirement as an alternative to traditional private pension plans that have failed. Most company pension plans are insufficient as are Government Pensions. Bank rates for Savings accounts are at record lows. Savvy investors are now looking for a more solid investment with potential for monthly income. Condotels in the Philippines fit the bill
This potential, high rates of rental returns from Condotel investments, currently from 8% up to 14% per annum, opens up a huge market not traditionally looked at by Real Estate Agents and Brokers whom all so often run around looking for normal residential profile buyers without looking at the by far bigger picture of investments, investing and retirement. “We’re here to help our clients, educating our clients and advising them of emerging investment opportunities. Self-Invested Pension Plans and the Lancaster Suites Atrium Condotels, fit this bill exactly; adds Collingz.
