European Emerging Condo Markets - Bulgaria Anyone?

August 27th, 2008 · 57 Comments

This interview runs through a couple of emerging European condo markets - Bulgaria, for example.

The markets highlighted in the interview have predominantly generated sales out of Western Europe, and increasingly from Russia, but I do believe that for the more adventurous US buyer, a trip to Eastern Europe would generate a lot of opportunities - please let me know what you think.

August 27th, 2008 · 147 Comments

The Turkish condo market offers numerous emerging market opportunities for US condo buyers.

This is another of my early interviews, so it is a little raw at the beginning, but I believe that the context would indicate that the Turkish condo market is offering favorable price discounts - between 30 - 40%!

Key domestic markets: Ismir, Bodrum and Istanbul

Emerging golf resort sector - only one way well placed golfing condo communities can go as far as I am concerned

70% LTV’s available - this developers pricing runs at about $200 - 250 per square foot (EU 400/500 per square meter.
