So far Aquarius Property clients have make very large returns on the developments sold. In many cases the capital appreciation is so high that one would be inclined not to believe them but they are accurate and based on professional valuations. For example when we sold the Sea and You development a beachfront apartment development in Turkey the 1 bed apartments cost €73,000, now they are selling for €130,000. The two bed apartments were sold for €89,000 and now they are selling for over €150,000. This amounts to a gain of €57,000 for the 1 bed and €61,000 for the 2 bed in a 30 month period since the deposits were taken. We have sold several developments like this since we established the company in 1999.

What you get with Aquarius Properties is knowledge which is the cornerstone of the overseas property business and experienced property consultants who can assist you and guide you through the purchase process. More importantly you can purchase through Aquarius in the knowledge that the properties are in the best locations so that they make a good long term investments for you.

Aquarius Properties recognise that a strong team of property professionals is essential to make the business a success and training is an important aspect of our ongoing activities. We know that knowledge is our business and that's why both Declan and Noreen Hynes spend so much time researching the markets choosing the best countries and locations, as well as recognising that timing is all important in the property markets. Property is a long term investment with entry and exit costs. This is one of the main reasons we recommend to clients to hold their investment for at least six to seven years. Aquarius Properties are an independent property marketing company, independent of the developers the agents and all the professionals they deal with in order to deliver value to clients.
