Malta illustrates the point that, if you are interested in a high rental income, it is worth researching carefully the difference between different areas. 

In Malta, the highest yielding areas for apartments are Attard, Balzan, and Lija.  By contrast Tigne Point and Valleta have relatively poor returns.

Residential prices in Malta are now moving up again, according to the Central Bank of Malta.

Round trip transaction costs are rather high in Malta. See our Malta transaction costs analysis and our Malta transaction costs compared with other countries.
