Ski resorts are the future of Bulgaria's real estate business, many UK experts believe. The Assetz website has published this week a report on the potential of Bulgaria's mountains to attract international agents. Bulgaria's future nearing EU accession is a major factor for the increased investment flow, the story underlined. It pointed at Sofia's bid to host the 2014 Olympic Games as another booster.

Investors can be almost guaranteed that the Bulgarian economy will grow, the UK website said, adding that investing in Bulgarian properties was less risky than the business in London.
Plus, many regions in Bulgaria remain far cheaper than other areas of Europe where price inflation has jumped significantly in recent years, Assetz said.
