Belize ranks third for online searches for real estate
Wednesday, February 7th, 2007If you wanted a rough-and-ready way to calculate investor interest in real estate in different countries, type a commonly used search term into a tracking service. Then repeat, using the same search term, for comparison countries. What you are looking for is not the absolute number of searches (something, incidentally, that can be hard to find) but the relative results between counties. Have a look at the graph below for countries in Central America for searches made in December 2006.
Costa Rica tops the bill. This is not altogether surprising. Costa Rica is the most established market in the region, has the largest number of US citizens as residents, and has been a popular real estate destination for many years. Panama and Belize rack up the second and third spots for Internet searches followed by Nicaragua in fourth position.
It is impossible to know exactly how this translates into investor confidence or relative real estate sales volumes for the different countries. Data on sales volumes and prices is not maintained centrally so we cannot make definite correlations. However, one thing is certain, investor interest in information on real estate (at least over the Internet) is highest for the more mature real estate destinations.
