News 25 April 2006:
Property investors driving Bulgaria's economy.
Investment in Bulgaria property
is becoming an increasingly attractive prospect for property enthusiasts
from the UK - and EU accession in the next couple of years is likely to
boost this still further.
Property prices have been rising steadily for a number of years now as Bulgaria
widens its appeal to a broader cross-section of the investment community.
With the ski resorts including Bansko
and Borovets improving
annually and the Black Sea resorts also building up an impressive tourist
industry, there is certainly a lot to look forward to in Bulgaria.
The Sofia Echo has today referred to reports in both the Dnevnik newspaper
and the Wall Street Journal, both of which point to a significant rise in
demand for properties in Bulgaria
and in central and eastern Europe in general.
Bulgaria, the Czech Republic,
Poland, Romania, Russia and Slovakia collectively brought in €5.8 billion
through property deals last year, according to the report. This is thought
to have represented a 38 per cent increase on the investment figure for
2004.
Writing for the Independent recently, journalist Robert Nurden remarked
that thousands of Britons had now "seen beyond the cliches" associated
with Bulgaria and were investing
their money in the property market.
Mr Nurden went on to describe the sheer variety of investment opportunities
in the country, with the capital city of Sofia one of the most notable.
He suggests that the property boom has now reached the centre of Sofia,
with locals also actively contributing to the market.
Bansko was also mentioned
in his article, with the gondola from the town to the pistes rated as "second
to none".
Bulgaria, largely on the basis
of the potential that many see in its real estate market, is often referred
to as the new Spain. It is a comparison that will be tested when Bulgaria
gains EU accession, as this progression proved vital for Spain as property
prices began to soar.
According to Mr Nurden, the parallel can apply specifically to Sunny Beach,
which he suggests could feasibly become the new Costa del Sol. While Bulgaria
has a long way to go before this could be considered an accurate description,
the potential for growth has certainly encouraged many and the extent of
the investment around the Black Sea regions is testament to this. Read

600,000 Brits own second home.
Ownership of second homes has soared to record levels, it was revealed yesterday.
There are as many as 350,000 in England, according to a survey. And there
are another 260,000 second homes abroad owned by Britons.
The total of around 600,000 is the equivalent of more than the population
of Sheffield owning a home in the South Yorkshire city and another elsewhere.
There are now some local authorities in England where one in three homes
are second homes, used only at weekends and holidays.
In North Norfolk, towns such as Burnham Overy and Brancaster have proved
to be a magnet for those looking for the perfect rural retreat by the coast.
Research by the upmarket estate agency Savills estimates that there are
up to 350,000 second homes in England.
This is more than 100,000 higher than government figures but Savills is
sceptical of the fact that many local authorities say they do not have a
single second home- owner inside their boundaries.
Official figures also show that a further 260,000 have a second home overseas,
with Spain and France among the most popular locations.
Even allowing for the small number of owners who have extra property both
here and abroad, there are least 600,000 households who can call two places
their home. Yolande Barnes, director of research at Savills, said: 'Second
homes fall neatly into three main categories - the weekend retreat, the
holiday home and the city pad.' Read more here: Bulgaria

Mortgage lending soars in March.
The UK property market appears to be in buoyant form with news that underlying
mortgage lending increased by its biggest amount in almost two years during
March.
The British Bankers' Association (BBA) has found that underlying mortgage
lending rose by £5.4 billion in the month, which is the largest increase
since June 2004 at the peak of that particular boom.
In February, the rise was only £4.7 billion and the average during
the preceding six months was £4.9 billion, leading analysts to suggest
that the market is set for a sustained period of growth.
Good news for property investment in the UK, the announcement also banishes
doubts that the market is slowing, with homebuyers now more confident than
ever about making a purchase.
At the same time, the BBA indicated that unsecured personal lending fell
by £0.4 billion, against an average rise of £0.5 billion during
the previous six months. Loans and overdrafts fell by just over £0.1
billion, while credit card borrowing fell by £0.2 billion compared
to an average increase of £0.2 billion in the preceding six months.
David Dooks, director of statistics for the BBA, remarked: "The contrast
between stronger mortgage lending and net repayments of unsecured borrowing
suggests that individuals are optimistic about the housing market, though
careful about card borrowing, overdrafts or taking on personal loans."
Meanwhile, the Council of Mortgage Lenders last week pointed out that gross
mortgage lending reached £28.3 billion in March, which is the highest
figure for the month since records began in the mid 1970s.
It is clear that confidence has firmly returned to the UK property market
and most experts now predict that prices will rise steadily throughout the
year.
Already it has been reported that £1 million houses are on the rise,
with a decade of house price growth pushing thousands of properties above
the previously unthinkable threshold. Read more here: Bulgaria

News 21 April 2006:
More British Tourists Visit Bulgaria's Ski
Resorts.
Balkan Holidays tourism agency registered a 35 per cent increase in the
number of British tourists who visited Bulgarian
ski resorts.
More than 25,000 people arrived in Bulgaria, using the services of the company,
Dnevnik newspaper reported. For the 2004-2005 season Balkan Holidays registered
a 70 per cent increase in tourist figures, compared to the numbers for the
previous season.
Company representatives said the new infrastructure and hotels in leading
ski resorts like Bansko,
Borovetz and Pamporovo
naturally increased the interest of foreign tourists.
Dnevnik reports Balkan Holidays is one of the leading companies on the British
market, managing to bring high number of foreign tourists to Bulgaria. In
2005, the company attracted more than 165,000 British tourists, interested
in both summer and winter tourism opportunities.
In the beginning of this year the company registered a slight decrease varying
of three to four per cent. Other companies also complained from the lower
interest toward summer vacation opportunities in Bulgaria. Read more

Orchid convinced that Bulgaria property market
will bloom.
Losses have increased at Orchid Developments, a property and hotel operator
specialising in Bulgaria, but the group says it exceeded expectations in
its first set of results since it floated on AIM last July.
Orchid (OCH) operates in commercial, residential and retail markets, and
since the float has paid €21 million (£14.5 million) for three
new development plots in Varna totalling around 38,000 square metres. It
is continuing to develop its land bank and says land values are increasing
rapidly.
Five of Orchid’s projects are co-financed by the European Bank of
Reconstruction and Development which has agreed a €30 million debt
facility. This breaks new ground for the financing of real
estate developments in Bulgaria, providing long-term funding that was
not previously available, says chairman David Holland.
‘The real estate market in Bulgaria remains buoyant and is expected
to experience further growth’ he said.
Group revenue rose from €1.1 million in 2004 to €3.4 million in
the year to 31 December. The net loss before tax was €1.175 million
against €953,000 in 2004.
Orchid says the net loss increased because of an increase in the size of
the development team and higher expenses arising from increased activity.
The results reflect a profit of €1 million from of the sale of 70 of
the 167 units in phase one of the Orchid Sofia Hills residential project.
Total sales were €7.25 million.
Since the year-end a further 40 apartments have been sold for €3.3
million taking the total to 110 worth €10.6 million.

Bulgaria: Sofia So Good.
Who would invest in property in a former Eastern Bloc country? They still
haven't recovered from the Cold War, they're full of concrete tower blocks
and they queue for vegetables, right?
Wrong, at least as far as Bulgaria is concerned. Thousands of Britons have
seen beyond the cliches and are pouring their hard-earned into the country.
The property investment opportunities
in Bulgaria, which is set to join the EU in January next year, fall
into four main categories. The first lies in the capital, Sofia, which is
growing economically and geographically faster than any other former East
European capital. The property boom has now hit the centre, with locals
themselves pitching into the market - always a good sign.
With the country on the threshold of EU membership - and entry into the
euro itself likely in about three years' time - an international and transitory
population in this "engine of the country's growth" is inevitable.
This means a huge demand for good rented accommodation.
An average, two-bedroom, new-build apartment in the centre of Sofia is selling
for between GBP 69,000 and GBP 87,000, and values are rising almost by the
day. The rental from such an apartment would be up to GBP 700 a month, according
to Robert Jenkin of estate agents Bulgarian Dreams. "These are fantastic
investment opportunities in a city that is becoming more cosmopolitan and
whose economy is stable and performing well," he says.
Drive two hours south and head for the mountains for opportunity number
two. Bulgaria has a burgeoning skiing industry whose centre is undoubtedly
Bansko, an ancient
village at the foot of the Pirin Mountains. In the past two years, it has
added on a huge number of apartment blocks geared to the winter season.
Anyone with the idea that its winter sports infrastructure is bound to be
third-rate should think again. It boasts a gondola from the town to the
pistes that is second to none.
"Every skier who comes here is impressed with the facilities,"
says Gary Brierley of Bulgarian Developments. "It is certainly not
the poor cousin of the Alps any more. But the countryside is great in the
summer, too. People come here to buy an apartment as an investment, fall
in love with the area and decide to spend time here themselves and use it
as a holiday home." Read more here: Bulgaria
