Marvellous Malta

Forward thinking

Malta is an archipelago of islands in the Mediterranean and has a long-standing affiliation with the UK. Malta gained independence from the UK on 21 September 1964 but is home to many thousands of British expats to this day. The country is also one of the smallest sovereign nations in the EU and is best known for its sunny climate and warm weather year-round.

As a country, Malta is forward-thinking with leading first-world-standards when it comes to technology and education and this tiny but mighty nation’s real estate sector is one of the most buoyant in the whole of Europe. Maltese real estate consistently delivers an excellent measure of capital appreciation that regularly outperforms many other traditional investments.

Getting to Malta could not be easier:  its about a 3-hour flight from the UK and, to further ensure a smooth visit to the islands, English is one of the official languages of Malta, PLUS the Maltese drive on the same side of the road as in the UK.

 

Nine good reasons why many people have made the move and become permanent residents in Malta:

 

  • A rich history and culture dating back more than 5500 years
  • Sandy beaches and crystal-clear waters
  • A much lower cost of living than many other countries in the EU
  • There are no wealth or inheritance taxes
  • There are no property rates and taxes
  • Malta has an extremely low crime and is one of the safest places in the world to live
  • Malta is a full EU-member country and part of the Shengen Zone
  • More than 80% of Malta’s population speaks English
  • Malta offers fantastic residency options for everybody
