Global sporting events impact on SA property prices -Global sporting events impact on SA property prices - Much has been said about the positive sentiment towards South African property created by winning the right to host the 2010 world cup; now an analysis of major global sporting events has put some numbers to the hype.

Between Mountain and Sea - Atlantic Seaboard, Cape Town, South Africa -Between Mountain and Sea - Atlantic Seaboard, Cape Town, South Africa - Voted the best foreign city in the UK's 2004 Telegraph Travel Awards, Cape Town is an extraordinary city. Its physical beauty is unrivaled and is accurately described as a lifestyle destination. The rugged mountains present natural playgrounds resembling artist rendered backdrops that also have practical, rich soil. The mountain sides have become cultivation havens and a wine estate luncheon is never more than an hour’s drive away. In Cape Town, dilemmas often begin with choosing a beach. Which stretch of white sand, near which rocky cove or kelp forest should I admire beautiful people on today? By Nicole Crozier

Real Estate in Bulgaria
Real Estate in Bulgaria - Real Estate in BulgariaThe phenomenal interest in Bulgarian property shown by shrewd buyers during the last two years has been compounded by a sudden surge in golf course development. The millions of Euros being invested by large international corporations in these ventures will probably feed this buying frenzy. According to the 2004 survey of the International Real Estate Federation (FIABCI) and Research Worldwide, which monitors house price rises in 23 countries on a monthly basis, the highest was South Africa at 27.8%. By comparison, Bulgaria recorded an average increase of 31% for the 12-month period (Q4 2003 - Q4 2004). By Steve Avery

Malta's Market Battle - Malta's Market Battle - With new European destinations such as Bulgaria, Slovenia and Croatia offering two and three bedroom apartments for sale for US $80,000, there was concern last year among some Malta estate agents that 2005 could see a drop in the number of  international Irish buyers choosing to buy a holiday home on the Mediterranean island. With good all year round temperatures enticing many buyers for the winter months as well as the summer and a warm welcome from the local population who nearly all speak English, Malta has been popular for some years among overseas property buyers.

Castles For Sale In Eastern Germany -Castles For Sale In Eastern GermanyYou may have read my articles in the past about castles for sale in the eastern states of Germany which have been run down during the Communist era of East Germany.  Well, it's some time since my last article appeared and since things change over time, an up-date is in order. Yes, these castles and manor houses are for the most part still a good buy if you compare them to prices charged for similar properties in other parts of Europe. Even if prices have gone up, and the low dollar too contributes further to a price increase, they still represent a good investment. If you always wanted to own a castle, then by all means you will be paying less if you buy a castle in this region of Germany. By Helga van Horn

Buying Real Estate In Another Country: The Last Great Non-Reportable Investment Idea? By John Schroder - Buying Real Estate In Another Country: The Last Great Non-Reportable Investment Idea?  - Owning real estate overseas protects intelligent people from the growing abuse of a government gone mad - If your government is a rogue nation that is currently confiscating property it is time for you to consider overseas real estate as a means of protecting your assets, your family and your life. Throughout America, police are now seizing cars, houses and bank accounts — without trial . . . and killing innocent Americans.  Many Americans don't want to believe that such events are becoming commonplace.  Those with their heads buried in the sand are having to bury them deeper to block out the obvious - - Those who are cognizant of the facts are seeking to protect their families and themselves by buying real estate in a foreign safe-haven By John Schroder

Relocate to Switzerland: A Tax Haven at the Heart of Europe - Relocate to Switzerland: A Tax Haven at the Heart of Europe- If you’re wealthy, you have any number of options about where to live.  Some places have a wonderful location; some have favorable tax laws or a welcoming and accommodating culture. But the fact of the matter is this: Switzerland is already what it would be like if wealthy people could design their own country. The Swiss tradition of discretion is particularly important for the wealthy and famous individuals who choose to make Switzerland their home.  Swiss tax and immigration laws allow for foreign-born wealthy people to keep a larger share of their own money while experiencing the joys of living in Switzerland.

Where is the Sophisticated Property Investor Putting his Money? -Where is the Sophisticated Property Investor Putting his Money? Putting your money into an emerging market surely has to be profitable because by the very definition of ‘emerging’, you should assume growth, and therefore return. EU accession is a massive catalyst to the growth of an economy as the EU is committed to backing these countries in a bid to creating comparable economies to those of it’s current members. Government incentives, new political regimes and tax reforms are creating an ideal climate for foreign direct investment, higher employment and GDP growth, which all directly affect the property market.

China is in the news with it's exploding industrial economy, consumption of resources and booming export trade resulting in an abundance of investment opportunities.  If you are considering investing in China you may be interested in taking a glimpse at China today. Anthony Peyton's article China and Japan : Prisoners of the Past tells a fascinating story of China's current battle with Japan. "China wants Japan to face up to its past, but is astonishingly unable to do the same regarding its own history, which has seen an invasion and annexation of Tibet in 1951; the disastrous Cultural Revolution 1966-1976 that lost a million lives as the revered leader Mao Ze Dong attempted anarchic totalitarianism; and of course the Tiananmen Square massacre of protesting students in 1989."

Currency Exchange and Money Transfers - More Currency Less Worry - Currency Exchange and Money Transfers - More Currency Less Worry. The exchange rate is possibly the least understood aspect of travelling abroad. Travel agents and bureaux de change display a cluster of numbers on their LED panels but the gap between the rate at which they buy and the exchange rate at which they sell looks for all the world like a black hole and then to add insult to unintelligibility, they charge a commission fee on top. Why are the rates up and down each day and why are they where they are at all? By Sophie Stride
