Croatia Property To See New Popularity In 2009

A well known property portal expects an increase in interest in Croatian property from investors in the coming months, after the EU foreign affairs Committee's announced that negotiations with Croatia over its accession into the EU can be concluded in 2009: 
"Croatia emerged onto the scene during the boom years, and became big news in 2004-2005, when EU accession was being discussed, but then as prices had risen rapidly and disputes over borders with Slovenia hampered EU accession, new countries like Estonia and Bulgaria, with lower prices and the same investment potential took over. It has always been expected that Croatian property prices would see another growth spurt upon and possibly even in the run-up to its EU accession expected in 2011.

"This announced intention to complete negotiations from the EU side, at a time when EU accession is even more appealing, if not necessary for Croatia and for the same reason, good value properties can be found in Croatia, will undoubtedly have investors paying fresh attention to the Croatian market."
