The Egyptian government has earmarked several areas of the Red Sea Coast for tourism development. These areas stretch from the coast between Ain Soukhna and Zafarana in the north to Marsa Alam in the south. Most of the land in Egypt, particularly along the coast is owned by the government and therefore the Egyptian Tourism Board has a much higher level of control on the master planning of expansion areas than would be witnessed in most countries.

The map below shows the division of blocks in the area around the Marsa Alam Beach Resort, with resorts on the sea side of the road and commercial, shopping and facilities on the other.

Bulgaria’s Mountain Resort of Bansko has, according to Bulgariaski.com, seen over 600,000 tourists visit since the start of the latest winter season.

Britons and Russians account for the bigger part of the tourist flow into the resort, which welcomed for the first time holidaymakers from Greece coming mostly for the weekend, Bansko mayor Alexander Kravarov told Darik radio.

According to him Bansko’s skiing conditions in 2008 were better than those during the previous year.

“We are very pride that Bansko became the arena of the Europa Cup downhill ski race for men,” Kravarov said.

According to him the flawless organization of the prestigious contest makes the resort’s bid for hosting the world competition a sure success.

It is expected that the popularity of Bansko will continue to grow and the infrastructure improves. We still believe buying a quality product in Bansko is a wise investment.

In the current market in Bulgaria, as a property investor, it is important that you select the correct opportunity. The main areas of focus for investors should be financial leverage, rental return potential, and of course, quality.

Apartments are no longer as cheap as they used to be, which is a good sign for a thriving property market. Let’s consider the Black Sea coastline. Areas like Sunny beach are seeing record levels of tourism and are quickly becoming one of the more popular destinations for foreign tourists. As an investor, these tourists are the very people that will provide you with a rental income on your apartment. With a wide choice of properties on the market today, the smarter money is going into the higher quality 5 star “lifestyle” developments that will attract the higher end clients.

Any investor knows that financial leverage is key. Despite what some agents might say, genuine mortgages in Bulgaria are much harder to secure.

Some people who buy off-plan may be disappointed with the final build quality. It is advised that you look at previous developments by the same developer to inspect their standard of finish. Take a trip out and look for yourself. Don’t just take the agents word for it. A quality property will last and continue to give you a rental return through the property cycle.
