News Posted On: 05 August 2009
America has taken top spot for the second month running in the Property Abroad.com top 10 most popular destinations with those searching for overseas property on the site.
Spain has now been relegated into second position for 2 months running; holding 2nd place again in July.
In fact the chart is the same as last month's until you get to position 5, with Greece and France holding the same 3rd and 4th place respectively in July as they did in June.
The first change is that Portugal and Turkey have switched places, with Portugal climbing 3 places to steal 5th place from Turkey in July, while Turkey has fallen back 3 places to take the 8th position held last month by Portugal. Portal director Les Calvert said of the change:
"This is undoubtedly because the British Pound has continued to strengthen against the Euro, whilst the Turkish Lira has been regaining some ground against Sterling. This confirms our suspicions last month that the weak Lira was behind Turkey's popularity."
Italy and Greece were 6th and 7th most popular in July, the same positions they held in June, and finally India and Bulgaria have swapped places; with India being 9th most popular in July, and Bulgaria 10th most popular.
The full results of the top 10 are as follows:
