Buying property for investment has long been popular for generating passive income. One type of property investment that has recently gained traction is investing in condos for rental income. Condos offer several advantages over traditional single-family homes, especially regarding overseas investments. In this guide, we’ll delve into the pros and cons of investing in condos for rental income focusing on the Luxury Condo Hotel concept introduced in the high-end destination of Kumbor, Montenegro, by API Investment.
Understanding Condos and Condo Hotels
Before diving into the investment aspects, it’s essential to know the differences between condos and condo hotels:
Condos
Condominiums, or condos, are separately owned units within a larger complex. Owners have full ownership of their units and joint ownership of common areas such as lobbies, hallways, and amenities.
Condo Hotels
Also known as condotels, condominium buildings are operated as hotels. Owners can use their units as vacation homes and have the option to rent them out through the hotel’s rental program. Under this program, the hotel manages all aspects of the rental process, including marketing and maintenance, and owners typically share the revenue with the hotel management, with the exact percentage varying depending on the unit and the hotel’s policies.
Pros of Investing in Condos for Rental Income
Affordability
Condos are more affordable than single-rental properties, making them accessible to a broader range of investors.
Amenities
Condo complexes often offer amenities such as swimming pools, gyms, and security services, which can attract renters and increase rental income.
Low Maintenance
Condo owners don’t have to deal with exterior maintenance, which the condo association typically manages. Minimal maintenance means a more hands-off investment than owning a single-family home.
Location
Condos are usually located in desirable locations, such as city centers or beachfronts, which can lead to higher rental demand and property appreciation.
Rental Income Potential
Condo hotels, in particular, offer the potential for high rental income, as they are managed like hotels and can benefit from the hotel’s marketing efforts.
Cons of Investing in Condos for Rental Income
HOA Fees
Condo owners must pay monthly homeowner association (HOA) fees, which can eat into rental income and vary widely based on the facilities and services offered.
Rental Restrictions
Some condo complexes have rental restrictions, which limit owners’ ability to rent out their units, especially in condo hotels, where units are often part of a rental pool.
Market Volatility
Real estate markets can be turbulent, and economic swings can decrease rental demand and property values.
Competition
In popular tourist destinations, there may be significant competition from other condo owners looking to rent their units, potentially affecting rental rates.
