Za Britance me ne cudi, jer oni su ono sto se kaze po naski glavom kroz zid. U Francuskoj kupe i nadaju se da ce naci posao. Kupuju po Spaniji, dosta njih zbog djece, jer kazu da djeca vise u Britanij ne odrastaju sa usporenim tempom zivota. Pa uzmu nesto gdje je malo ljeni mentalitet da se djeca nauce opustenijem zivotu. U Engleskoj zbog brojnih zakona koji stite strance zbog utaje poreza, zato u nekim sredinama je skupo kupiti kucu ili stan zbog koje kakvih vlasnika firmi npr. iz Slovacke ili Rusije. Jer UK im odobri da 7 godina ne placaju porez na zaradu u inostranstvu, jer nisu rodjenu na Britanskom tlu. Imas Britanaca sve rasprodaju ili zadrze minimalac u vlastitoj a odu vani i kupe nesto, a komotno dobiju kredit u UK.
Za Svabe i Austrijance me cudi, jer nije nikakva javna tajna da su davnih dana samo siromasnija klasa Njemaca dolazila na Jadran. Bogatij su isli u Italiju, Francusku i naravno Spaniju gdje ljeti ima vise Njemaca u nekim gradovima nego domacih.
Kao sto rekoh, za engleze me ne cudi, jedino da ih nema vise. Za ostale i ako ih je sakica na sprem borju koji se prodaje opet sam pozitivno iznenadjen, jer one stare Svabe sto su nekada dolazile je isto bilo Billig Urlaub machen... Urlaub in Jugoslawien. Tito, wir kommen!
But even those averages don't tell the complete story. What follows cannot be supported with statistics. The picture that emerges is based on what we can see from our work as a real estate agency. There are locations and many properties on the market which simply don't appeal to the "typical foreign home buyer". Those are the many houses which were built with the "blood and sweat" by Croatians themselves, or by small Croatian construction companies - of which there are almost as many as the pebbles on the typical Croatian beach. Usually the goal was to, once in a lifetime, build a home for generations to come, and all to live under one roof. An illusion which rarely manifests with young people leaving their home, struggling to find employment somewhere else. There are simply too many of those houses in Croatia which, if advertised for sale, tend to just sit on the market.
But what is more relevant to this article is the other side of the coin, the demand side. Here we see a different challenge. The typical buyer is looking for a holiday house (or apartment) in a nice location which is of a high quality and offered at a fair price. While for some that location is by the sea, for others the peaceful countryside is more appealing. It is harder than it might seem to find an excellent property. Many have already been sold, few new ones are being built! Croatia is a small country. The entire region of Istria is smaller than Greater London.
Really appealing properties, in our estimate, account for less than 10% of all properties on the market.
