Now if I could only find this land, that Kana reckons could be had for 30 Eur/m2.............. Hello Peter! That's the Motovun land we were to buy, officially went down to 40, but I'm sure that cash buyer could get it for 30. I gave a lead even to the guys from Villas forum, but they...

That kind of ratio maximises you profits with no need for mortgage. For example, you bought a flat for 100k, paid in cash. In a year's time you sell it for 110k. You made 10% ROI, 10k. If you buy the same flat for 100k but pay only 20% down, and then sell just before the handover for 110k...

I'm really not sure how you got the idea that any of us were trying to do that? I started the thread asking for anyone with some experience in the country to contribute, and two people did share their thoughts on that. Where exactly have you seen decent investors being conned? :eek...

Trans Invest, Advice of caution is always welcome, but all we have been hearing from you till now is serbian-nationalistic ranting packaged as 'an advice for investors'. For example: I think that rather than Christian, you should write Serbian. I fully agree, Kosovo is certainly not...

Maybe the locals just got a bit upset about decades of abuse by Serbia... :rolleyes: In the same light, I guess I should cancel my trip to Belgrade. After all, Serbian army also destroyed many churches and mosques (before any orthodox one's were destroyed),and on the top of that killed ten's...

Thanks Neustria, this is very useful info. Can you suggest the best way of getting there from London? Cheers.

Great advice provided that you got enough capital so that your 10% can actually secure some property for you. :) With Ajman you need to take few things in consideration: Emerging market - high risks. There is no infrastructure, lots of projects are launched but no one can tell when and how...

qrm There is much more to investment than 'buy cheap sell high". :eek: How is this statement related to Kosovo? Do you understand some basics of economics? Lets take Kosovo for example. 3 months old country, with no money, poor infrastructure and with desperate need for...

The banks will give you a mortgage for off plan developments provided the developer (and the development) has been pre-approved with them. So each project you are interetsed in you should contact the developer and ask them if there are any banks offering finance for that development. Important...

Hi Lamita I also have something very interesting in Marina. Pls contact me via email - kana at primebuytolet dot com

Depending on which developments. Al Hamra is financed by Lloyds TSB and HSBC. The easiest way to find out is always ask the developer if the project has been pre-approved by some of the banks, if yes, they will be quite eager to point you to the right direction. If they are not...

Is everything ok on your side mate?

Funnily enough, just yesterday I had a chat with a partner of mine in Istria. Things are getting to that point now where everyone is trying to sell their land - and no buyers. I know some superb plots that were selling at 60-70eur last January, now they cant sell it for 40. It all got hyped-up...

Yes, and political situation is exactly the starting point. I might be wrong but I think like this: - Serbia will not intervene - they know its the price they have to pay for getting in EU. It was a hard decision, and opposed by large groups of radicals who nearly won the elections. But what...

Thank you Stingo. Yes, lets keep politics out of this. You made good points. Lets get in touch - I'm sending you my details over PM.

Did anyone look into Kosovo? Not only for real estate, but also for any kind of investment. That area has been for decades neglected by Serbia (before independence),and common sense would suggest that Kosovo government would welcome foreign investment. Has anyone got any experience there?

See, you are talking about sea clearness, nature etc - you are looking at it as someone looking for a holiday home. Investors are looking at ROI, timeliness, risk, exit routes, finance, hassle etc. To give you an example: I brought 3 people from City investment fund from London with me to...

Hi Grm I wondered that my self for a little while, and this is my conclusion: 1. The returns are really poor, and there is so many better opportunities around. 2. Government planning laws are not very favourable for developers. 3. Bureaucracy is a killer 4. Your net rental returns will...

Do you have any reference for this? It would be hard to believe that you will have no way out, 3 yrs is too long for standard tenancy agreement, it just wouldn't be practical.
