In this article we will detail why you’re mad not to invest in property in Turkey for a medium to long-term hold.

Filed in Property News for Bulgaria
The Bulgarian property market began to come alive a couple of years prior to the nation’s 2007 EU accession and has quickly moved from emerging hotspot where massive property fortunes could be won, (or lost!), to a mature market where there are factors and fundamentals supporting it - but also realistic levels of supply and demand that restrict pricing expansion.
As a result of these facts, gone are the days of tiny property prices and huge Bulgarian real estate gains – at least according to Deyan Kavrukov, the head of an equity fund investing in the region. But contrasting his opinion is word from a British based property agency that states that office and residential property in Bulgaria’s capital city of Sofia remains very much in demand and highly profitable.

There has been limited attention paid to the property markets of South East Asia on Amberlamb of late – but with a mixed bag of data coming from the region at the moment and an increasing number of investors looking further afield for property investment potential abroad, we decided to focus on real estate economies in the likes of Singapore, Shanghai, Vietnam and Malaysia today.
According to the Global Property Guide, Singapore was the best performing property market in the world last year in real terms but there are certainly other locations in the region that are at least as interesting going into 2008 and looking to the longer term so read on for the latest information about property investment in Malaysia and South East Asia.

The property market in Croatia is in its infancy – Croatia has yet to achieve EU membership and there are still hurdles that would-be foreign buyers have to jump over in order to secure a house purchase in Croatia. What all this means is that it is still very much an immature market where risk takers buy-in and the cautious just holiday!
But if you’re looking for a bargain with a long term potential for strong yet sustainable growth, Croatia could very well be it. In this article we’ll take a look at property in Croatia and the economy in Croatia as well as the efforts the nation is making towards EU and NATO membership.

It was back in 2006 when we first told you all about billionaire Peter Monk’s plans for Montenegro – did you believe us? I don’t think many of you did actually, no, because it’s all Russian money that’s moving in on this stunning little Adriatic facing nation – so we’re here to tell you again...you can make money from property in Montenegro, but only if you move fast!
Peter Monk is a Canadian businessman, philanthropist, risk taker and visionary who is buying up swathes of tiny Montenegro because he can see big business in creating a mega yacht marina in Tivat and now he can see big business in creating a mountain resort near Kolasin – and where Peter Monk can see big business, trust us, there is money to be made from Montenegrin real estate!

Don’t you just hate it when a market takes off and you haven’t actually bought in yet? It happened in Dubai and it’s happening in Brazil – there has been so much hype, and that hype has been found to be based on actual facts and fantastic fundamentals, that now a frenzied buying crowd is pushing property prices right up before our very eyes.
So, is property in Brazil still affordable for those of us who won’t have a spare million to throw into the pot any time soon? The good news is that it certainly is…and what’s more, if you don’t actually want to be a part of the beautiful people set who are buying all along the beachfront, there are some locations that you can invest in where the future tourism demand will come from those seeking the ‘real’ Brazil rather than a new pair of breasts or perfect teeth.

With oversupply in some of the most popular European property hotspots such as Spain and Cyprus, with the US slowdown effect rippling outward and causing concern in many of the major Western property markets and with signs pointing to stagnation in markets closer to home such as across the UK and in Ireland, is there anywhere left to make money from real estate in 2008?
According to Liam Bailey from Knight Frank there is, and as long as you avoid commercial property for the time being, according to us there is too. You just need to head to Constanta in Romania on a Ryanair flight…

A recent report in leading British Sunday newspaper the Sunday Times entitled: “Revealed: the best places in the world for retirement,” put Cyprus firmly in the top slot for Britons seeking a more attractive destination in retirement. So there are even more reasons to buy property in Cyprus now it seems – because after this report details why Cyprus is so appealing, a nation of British retirees will be packing their bags and moving to Cyprus in search of a new home to buy or rent!
The Cyprus investment property market has long been dominated by buyers searching for front line or well positioned property with amenities that will be appealing to the summer holiday set – but now there is a whole new market to directly and specifically target, and that’s the retirement one.
