Affordable flats are incredibly hard to find on the overall Bucharest real estate market. With the price of land skyrocketing, it is impossible to keep the unit price under 1500€/sqm, once you add in the VAT.

Domnesti is one of the satellite villages at the outskirts of Bucharest. 20 years ago it was seen as a village away from the capital, as countryside as it gets. Nowadays it gets update after update and, after another few years, it will become one of the suburbs of the capital. This is the set […]

The beginning of this month witnessed a slight setback in the construction of the Planorama project in Colentina, Bucharest. As announced in an earlier post, Planorama has already received its share of good press http://www.romanianpropertynews.co.uk/2007/02/17/planorama-the-latest-development-in-the-colentina-area-bucharest/ due to one of the blocks being bought entirely by a group of investors in the very early stages of […]

Cartierul Latin (Latin Quarter) is one of the latest residential projects in the West of Bucharest (the second residential area after Bucharest North) in Ghencea extension.

Surely, there are plenty of alternative responses to the title; this article will briefly cover only one of them – the Arigato villas in Snagov, nearby Bucharest.

The Arigato project is extremely easy to summarise: unique development in a posh location. To start with the location, the area around the Snagov Lake was a heavily desired […]

Carol Park (or Parcul Carol, in Romanian) is a miracle in the residential of Bucharest – a quiet spot less than a mile from the noisy Unirii Square (Piata Unirii). Surrounded by old housing, typically 1900-1930s villas, as well as a very busy (some of it still covered with cobblestone, but not for long) street […]
