The Global Property Guide uses country ratings to reflect our ‘house view’ on residential

Ratings of different countries can be compared in several ways:

1. Worldwide country rating comparison

Country ratings are based on 9 factors:

• Gross rental yield
• Income tax
• Capital gains tax
• Round-trip transaction costs
• Potential landlord and tenant problems
• Long-term GDP growth
• Potential over-supply
• Affordability
• A view of long-term appeal to investors

2. Continent-wide rating comparisons

Click on the "Rank" box above the continent, you'll get data for all the countries in Europe. Sort countries by name, by star rating or by yield.

	Africa	Caribbean	Latin America	North America
	Asia	Europe	Middle East	Pacific

Individual country ratings (see table at top right)

GPG’s Overview pages provide a range of data - Gross rentals yields, taxation, landlord and tenant laws, inheritance and economics - all factors which go into the investment decision, and (hence) into our country ratings, are discussed in our overview pages. Click through to them from the list at the top of the page, right hand side.

3. Compare any countries on 6 dimensions

Click on the 'Compare' box above the continent, rank any countries you select on six criteria chosen by you.
