Totally disagree with this post as it is very sweeping. I have lived in Bulgaria for a long time, and share a property company with my local partner.

Rental demands are being hit, and seasons are relatively short in areas like the 3 main sko resorts, and along the Black Sea coast.

However, I do fantastically well with my sales and rentals in Sofia, which if you know anything about the city, has no season.

Many of the properties we rent out for clients are on a mid to long term basis. Our long term rentals to the Business Park Sofia, and various Embassies are year round ........ 52 week's per year.

There are many people out there who are looking to make a sound investment, and as the market starts to change, are also looking at a lifestyle element. It is right to be cautious when making possibly 'life changing' decisions, but wrong to think this wonderful country revolves around low rental in short season resorts.

Ovidiu,

That was a very silly post, and completely disrespectful to the Bulgarian people.

I might suggest Costa Rica. The country has coastlines on the Pacific and the Carribean, and since deals are negotiated in US dollars, you can also take advantage of the weak US dollar. The government is very stable, and all new construction must meet very strict criteria for environmental protection. Reports from the Dominical area say that there is an influx of Europeans now (especially Germans, French, and British) who are looking to invest there because their own markets offer little promise on the short to mid term. This market seems isolated from the woes besetting the other major areas.
