Well there are some predictions that by the end of this century the sea may rise by a metre but it may be an exaggeration. Flood Maps will give you a basic diagram of where would be affected most. The Netherlands though will have huge issues though.

Does anyone have any opinions on the Philippines and Cambodia?

I think you should buy in Turkey as the best investment. I am selling a property.

When the credit crunch is really just starting to bite, then the best place to buy is in established markets, that clearly includes UK but also Spain and other established EU countries
At times of problems it is best to avoid the so called ' emerging markets'
Anyone buying has to be selective with location and developer
The good thing about Spain is that it is easy to get to from UK amd most other EU economic developed countries so there is always a demand in the medium to long term from those seeking a Life Style purchase in the sun

Yes, but only if the developer will take a deep 30 - 40% discount to reflect the new times and to get the yield to where it should be.

Paying top money for a muppet Polaris World property with a 2% yield is about as bad an investment as one could make.
