Slovenia property is in demand at present as more people than ever are buying it as an investment. Slovenian property is forecast to return capital growth of up to 300% over the next ten years and the country was recently voted one of the top ten property investment destinations in the world.
So why is Slovenia property for sale in such demand?
Let's look at the reasons behind the housing boom.
Slovenia is a small country (about the size of Switzerland) that sits in the centre of Europe and has borders with - Croatia, Austria, Italy and Hungary.
It is a recent member of the EU and since joining has achieved the fastest growth of any of the new member states.
The Economic Boom
Its geographical location at the centre of Europe, combined with a modern infrastructure and the credibility of EU membership, has meant large amounts of capital are being invested not just from the EU, but from private investors as well and much of this is in property.
The economic boom means that the demand for housing is on the rise and in areas such as the capital Ljubljana prices have been rising by 30% or more per annum.
Tourism
Not only are prices on the rise due to economic growth, there is another major factor at work - the growth in tourism.
Slovenia is not a well known country too many but it's beautiful and undiscovered but that is all about to change as the Slovenian Government pours investment into this area.
Slovenia has a wide variety of scenery to enjoy - from the soaring mountain peaks of the Julian Alps, to lush vineyards and fairytale alpine forests.
There are also stunning lakes such as the major tourist resort of Lake Bled and Bohinj, mighty rivers such as the Soca Valley and even a beautiful stretch of Adriatic coastline with the beautiful town of Piran.
Slovenia has something for everyone, with a vast range of outdoor sports to pursue and with budget airlines now flying more frequently and more cheaply than ever before, tourism is on the increase.
Easy Access
This growth in tourism means that investors have a wide variety of areas they can buy in and not only can they get capital growth, they can make good solid rental incomes as well.
You can buy Slovenia property for capital growth, income or a mixture of the two depending on the area you are looking at and your budget.
Prices are still cheap in many areas and there are many locally based Slovenian estate agents to help you buy your dream Slovenian house - or commercial property.
The buying procedure is straightforward and mortgages and finance are available locally.
Slovenia property investment is a solid long term investment and if you consider buying a property in Slovenia, you may be glad you did.
