Spread you risks, create a balanced portfolio of real estate investments! Bulgarian property market Bulgarian property market (Black Seaside in particular) has been the firstcoastal resort areas, where British people discovered Bulgaria. This propertymarket was pioneers in attracting foreigners to buy property here. With growing demand for properties in the above area, lack of planningpermission regulations, some parts of these beautiful coasts have beenoverbuilt. But there is a big advantage of the Bulgarian Black Sea areas - theestablished infrastructure that makes this place ideal for retirement abroad orholiday homes. By trial and error the property markets in up and coming areas of Bulgariaare offering much more - good value for money, facilities, infrastructurethat was frequently overlooked at the infant stages of the Bulgarianproperty market development. Black Sea and mountainresorts are the future of Bulgarian property market. Large numbers of wealthy Northern Europeans are buying a property in Bulgaria, incoastal resorts in particular and this trend will only increase as the Europeanbaby boomers retire. This will ensure the growth in demand for many decades tocome, driving the prices upwards! UKagents and property consultants With the overwhelming supply of new developments coming in different partsof the world, growing number of the property exhibitions and UK propertyagents, as well as press and media coverage of different hot propertydestinations, it is easy to overlook your own objectives and jump on the bandwagon. And… Do it sooner than later as the prices are increasing! Bulgarian Properties Highlights Purchase of Bulgarian property become easier for foreigners Foreigners will be able to purchase real estate properties without special licenses from the government. Members of the Parliament Economic Commission voted down on second reading, the text of the Investments Encouragement Law, according to which the foreigners had to ask the cabinet for such a license. Irrelevant became also the requirement for special license from the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Internal Affairs for purchasing real estate properties in the interior areas of the country, close to the national security objects. The grounds for this vote are that such restrictions do not correspond to the law, whose purpose is to encourage the investments. The law is to be adopted by the parliament on second reading. In the beginning of March 2004, at the conference of the Bulgarian Industrial Business Association (BIBA), the American Trade Chamber and the Bulgarian-German Chamber was requested these restrictions to be dropped off. At the moment the Real Estate Agencies face difficulties in interpreting the Foreign Investments Law and the regulations for applying the Law of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, since there are many unclear points concerning the property or land acquisition in urbanized territories at the border area, in connection to the national security. Due to the same reason, the Notary Publics faced difficulties to perform the sale formalities of land along the Black Sea coast, which according to the real estate agents is an obstacle for the realties market. Companies in this trade sphere explain that the foreign investors used to buy properties and land via figureheads, but in the long run this practice is not serious and may lead to exodus from the most perspective construction regions in Bulgaria. The main problem for them is due to the ambiguity in the interpretation of the term “border area”. The lawyers regard the term as applied only for the land and river borders, since according to the Sea Area Law, the sea coast is not considered a state border. As by the Foreign Investments Law enacted, a juridical person on the territory of Bulgaria can acquire property and restricted law of estate over realties. © 2005 Sagabg.net. All rights reserved.

I just found this website. I am looking for commercial loans. I have a client that owns 42 acres , it is zoned agriculture. It is a great location , next to a school and subdivision. He is looking to refi at the highest LTV possible. He does plan on building homes in the future or possible selling off individual lots. The land currently has a 2 million loan on it. The value is 6.5 million. He has owned it for 1 yr. It is actually a corporation of 4 and they all have great credit and tons of assets, their worth is in the millions They also want to purchase another piece of land for 12 million. Any ideas? Thanks -- loanuniverse Dec 7 2005, 09:27 AM Post #2 Administrator Group: Admin Posts: 1,089 Joined: 23-September 02 Member No.: 1 Is the $152M per acre value an as is value as agricultural land? Or an speculative value assuming a rezoning? Is it supported by actual sales? If the value can be supported, I am sure someone can be found to lend at least 50%. Depending on the adjusted net worth of the individuals, maybe significantly more. Many lenders are avoiding land right now in my market unless there is an existing relationship with the developer. I know that I would feel uncomfortable recommending a land loan unless the investors are experienced. -- lelting Dec 14 2005, 10:48 PM Post #3 Full-Time Teller Group: Members Posts: 13 Joined: 13-November 05 Member No.: 971 I can help you with the 12 million dollar purchase>I have private investors that will fund at 100 LTV -- LenderBuddy Dec 15 2005, 10:55 AM Post #4 Head-Teller Group: Members Posts: 23 Joined: 11-November 05 From: San Francisco Member No.: 968 If there are crops growing on the land or the land is zoned agricultural then we are talking agricultural land loan and that is a different beast.
