More and more young people are discovering the new freedom of location-independent working. What was considered an exception for digital nomads just a few years ago is now actively supported by many companies. Thanks to robust video conferencing tools, cloud services and flexible working time models, entire teams can now work from anywhere in the world without compromising productivity.
Professions in online marketing, IT, design and consulting in particular benefit from this:
These activities require little more than a powerful laptop and a fast internet connection. The idea of starting the day with a meeting and ending it with a dip in the sea is no longer just a dream of individual adventurers.
Many young professionals report that they can do their work on the beach, in co-working spaces on islands or in vibrant metropolises in a more creative and relaxed way than in a traditional office. Working and travelling merge - you see the world, gather impressions and do your job at the same time.
This trend is also changing the local property market:
Flats with a good home office setup, reliable high-speed internet and options for short-term rentals or interim lets are in high demand. Owners who offer such conditions not only appeal to locals, but also to international buyers and tenants who return for several months at a time.
Even buyers who do not want to move abroad permanently are increasingly focussing on flexible floor plans and an infrastructure that facilitates longer stays abroad.
After all, the ability to organise work and life freely is a decisive argument for many when buying a property.
