If we take a closer look at two of our key markets, London and New York, we can see how property markets have responded over the medium-to- long term. Historically, investing into these markets has proven profitable over ten years, even through the Global Financial Crisis. However,

for purchasers who have sought to maximise their returns, leveraging has enabled their money to work harder and deliver more. Leveraging is most commonly used in property investment and is a powerful tool to maximise potential returns. The graphs on the right are examples

of how leveraging via a 70% mortgage has turned what would have been a 26% unleveraged return in New York to a 90% leveraged return. London is equally impressive - investors there have seen ten-year leveraged returns of 238% as of March 2015.
