The county of Devon has always been the pride of the UK and has a property market that reflects as such. Blessed with some of the most breathtaking natural beauty and a climate that’s noticeably less harsh than that of Britain’s northern quarters, holidaymakers from across the UK and Europe as a whole flock in huge numbers to Devon each and every year. Investment opportunities in Devon are often in quite a different league to those of the rest of the UK. Land and property values are generally sky high and have been steadily growing for decades. New developments are comparatively scarce and the annual summer holiday demand more often than not outstrips available inventory by quite the margin. Properties are expensive, buying costs are high and taxes can put a dampener on things – but rental yields and resale potential can make it all worthwhile.
