Errrrrrrrrrrr, no..
With the vastly inflated values born from the greed of investers and sales agents, it will take many years for values to rise to anywhere near...
Also the oversupply has driven the market down. Brilliant time to buy though
I understand that it will be a long time before prices return to where they were. I am just talking about slight increase and bottoming out. I am only hoping for a 2% increase
The only thing that will bring Bansko property prices back to where they were 2 years ago is inflation - and even with a high rate (which we don't have) it'll take many years. I very much doubt they will ever reach the same real rates, which is quite normal if you buy in a bubble.

Mats right about the exchange, has benefitted some who have been able to sell at a loss on paper, but have escaped barely losing any money in real terms... Mat, the comment about the Irish is just vicious and what with the airlines cancelling flights ?? its like a conspirasy
