The Forthcoming Visit Of King Harald V And Queen Sonya Of Norway To Croatia Has Improved The Profile Of Development Plans To Turn Land Near Sucuraj, On The Eastern End Of Hvar Island, Into A Resort Rivaling Cannes
A forthcoming royal visit to Croatia from the King and Queen of Norway highlights the development on eastern Hvar near Sucuraj, billed as the new Cannes. The royal couple are due on an official visit to Zagreb and the seaside town of Sibenik on May 12-13, accompanied by 100 Norwegian businessmen, who are looking into investment opportunities in the former-Yugoslav republic as reported suite101.com.
Croatia is becoming more well-liked as a vacation destination. Enthusiastic about buying a home on an Croatian island, apartment in a quiet Dalmatian town, commercial property in Dalmatia or land plot for a larger investment? According to the Law of Croatia real estate, foreign citizens and enterprises can be owners of property in all the teritory of Republic Croatia (Istria, Kvarner, Dalmatia, Continental Croatia, and all Croatian islands).
Croatian property enquiries for the winter period of 2010 to 2011 are up from the year before. They are still some distance from pre crisis levels but a serious rise never the less. Exchange volumes are still low but the number of sales converted is rising and stockholders who have been showing interest during the past twelve months are beginning to commit. With improving economic conditions globally and a signs that confidence is returning in Europe, all be it slowly and carefully, it might appear that the trend should continue in 2011.
One thing's for sure, Croatian property agents are truly working for their commission. This is no bad thing. It has reduced the number of players in the market considerably. It in addition has raised the standards as buyers ask considerably more questions, and generally look far closer at value. This has forced Croatian property agents to be more competent, informed and fitted out with reasoned arguments instead of the standard sales patter. It has also helped to regulate the Croatian property market slightly better as costs paid are realistic. There are no men with black temporary cases sneaking round the corner prepared to pay 5 times more than the property is basically worth. Those times are well behind us and happily so.
Pricewise, regardless of reports of falls of between 5% and 10%, actually Croatian property prices have fallen more like 20% to 30%. The reason behind the irregularity is due to publicized and real sales values. This is especially true for properties in Croatia coastal locations where much of the property is acquired by foreigners and where transaction volumes are so low that information is limited, so much so it is tricky to appraise. Additionally the current system of monitoring Croatian property prices is fairly ineffectual thanks to a shortage of correct information. The main source of information is that of the tax office, where contractual prices of Croatian property sold are registered. However , the practice of manipulating contractual prices for tax purposes is still typically found in Croatia making available data untrustworthy.
In the tidal locations, foreign property owners are much more inclined to drop prices. A lot of them have experience similar price drops in their domestic marketplaces and have quickly become accustomed to the idea that property is worth less than it used to be and that prices are relative. For instance a significant number of foreign owners have sold property in Croatia, to take advantage of declining prices at home, preferring to reinvest regionally. We see this trend continuing throughout 2011.
When considering the Croatian real estate market direction for 2011, it's also significant to have a look at Croatia's economic and political situation. Currently Croatia is going through its own crisis of confidence, not least with the economy. Nonetheless considering the state of lots of the other marginal Western European economies as well as it's comparative size, Croatia isn't alone. It is no worse than Greece, Ireland, Portugal, Spain and possibly Belgium and is perhaps better in many examples. The country certainly hasn't been bailed out by the EU Union or World financial Fund yet Additionally, as the ECU is attempting to introduce a more strategic and coordinated industrial policy approach, Croatia, soon to be a member, should benefit.
Additionally Croatia is tackling the issue of corruption head on. There have been countless high profile arrests including the arrest of Ivo Sanader the former prime minister, as well as a considerable number of his ex ministers and it seems like this is just the beginning. With the press now having free reign in the democratic process stories of new executive officers and their mysterious wealth are hitting the news on a regular basis. It would appear that Croatia is kind of unique with respect to its open attempts to tackle corruption. Born by it's need and drive to join the Western European Union Croatia, unlike Romania and Bulgaria, as well as some of the more established countries of the ECU, has needed to be brave and handle this tricky problem upfront of Croatia EU Accession.
This has obviously caused some negative sentiment from foreign backers short term. But then financiers are being cautious for a similar reasons they are cautious just about everywhere in Europe at the moment. We only truly see this changing once the banks begin to lend again bringing with it a change in sentiment. This is especially the argument for the second homes market. But medium to long term, and more specifically after Croatia joins the EU end of 2012, things will improve.
How can this affect the Croatia property market? Short term we expect there to be continued downward stress on property prices in Croatia, but with transaction volumes rising as buyers and financiers look to take advantage of bargains as well as some solid Croatian property investing opportunities. This is correct for both the foreign and domestic customers. Medium term we are expecting to see Croatia join the ECU, however it remains to be seen what proportion of a repercussion on Croatian property costs it'll have. There are 2 distinct probabilities, a reasonable and stable effect or an inflationary drive. It'll mostly rely on the ECU itself and if it is in a position to resolve it's own issues and fix confidence in its own ability to manage and unify it's members on the necessary money regulation so as to prevent the same sovereign debt issues some of it's members are currently facing, and very significantly the impact which has on it's other members and the ECU itself.
