The Fifth RecExpo: Azerbaijan International Real Estate and Investment Exhibition, which is organized by Elan Expo, is taking place Nov. 21-23, 2019, at the Baku Expo Center in Baku, Azerbaijan.
Azerbaijani’s Preference of Investment: Real Estate
Azerbaijan, which is located on the Western coasts of the Caspian Sea and has around 10 million in population, is one of the most powerful countries of the Caspian Region, with its underground resources and the high purchasing power. Azerbaijan is the 25th biggest economy, according to World Bank’s Doing Business Report 2019; it had around $42 billion at the end of 2018.
Azerbaijani investors have been inclined to make investment abroad in recent years, such as in the UAE, EU, U.S., Georgia, etc. Their valuable currency, passion for the luxury life and some internal taxation policies leads them to invest in foreign countries. Azerbaijanis also prefer to make foreign investments as buying houses abroad for the holidays, educational preferences or business opportunities; there are some countries that offer investors citizenship when they buy a house.
