Is this the right time to buy property abroad?

BrixResearch Moderator says: Property markets across the world have shown signs of recessions. Property prices have mellowed down all over as there are very few buyers for real estate at this point of time. Financial crisis have added further pressure on the real estate sales.

It is estimated that property prices in the US have plunged by as much as 50-60%. Is it a good idea to buy/lease property abroad when property prices there are so low?

Global slowdown: Will property prices take a dip?

BrixResearch Moderator says: Market analysts are certain that property prices in India will come down owing to the current slowdown in the global markets. Cash crunch in the US markets has set a tizzy in the global markets. Indian property developers are anticipating some ripple effect of the same. This has brought in a halt to the property prices as developers are desperate to sell their projects.

Will this market correction bring down the prices of property? Will price correction help boost sales of property projects? What’s your take on this?
