One of the reasons why the market in Bucharest remains surprising to say the least is the mixture of old and new you can find throughout the city. Only a few days ago I’ve noticed an advert for an 800sqm plot, positioned centrally, all yours for ‘only’ €2000/sqm (read twice the “per square meter” […]

Noor is another ongoing real estate project nearby the Titan Park in Bucharest. The developers managed to secure a large enough plot and are currently more than half way through the construction of the four blocks of flats that constitute Noor. As you can see from the computer generated image, the complex follows the internal […]

I re-wrote the following line a few times to avoid the praise look’n’feel but…it still expresses the same: the interest in the Romanian Real Estate Market is on the increase. The Romanian Wall-Street newspaper (not sure whether it’s connected in any way with the one in New York, but it is a good indicator of […]

Picture a fast growing real estate market, with a large number of ongoing development projects.

Due to this mixture, although the area is dominated by […]

As you might know, Valea Prahovei (Prahova Valley) is one of the best known touristy regions of Romania. The area includes four famous (at least for Romanians) mountain resorts: Sinaia, Busteni, Azuga, Predeal. Further north you can also get to Poiana Brasov.

The developer behind the project is Adama Holding; it might be a name that you have not heard before, but they appear to be quite an important player on the […]
