Investors should cash in on the different stages of the property cycles in the western world and the Middle East, Lanesborough Asset Management has urged.

'The conditions for profit taking could not be more opportunistic in the East and the West, as such property investors should invest in both falling and rising property markets as an investment strategy,' Lanesborough said.
