Court challenge to affect landlords - and how to spot a distressed seller

Court challenge to affect landlords - and how to spot a distressed seller

As ever, the distressed seller is a property investor's dream, allowing for the possibility of a real bargain. But how do you spot them? Tony Booth gives you a few hints.

There's a heavy focus on UK mortgages, finance and credit too. Where are we at and what does it all mean for property prices? Further afield we look at the record breaking FDI Bulgaria is experiencing, Czech tax reforms that all investors need to know about and there's the usual comment and opinion from the Property Secrets Community.

We continue to publish and update our range of in depth, heavily researched Property Market Profiles too. If you're hearing about these for the first time, then they are vital to any property investor interested in a specific market. Packed with research into demographics, FDI, politics and all matters related to making sound property investment decisions.

Following on from last month, during which we published Property Market Profiles on Slovakia and the Czech Republic, this month we have a newly updated Bulgaria Property Market Profile available to download. See below for more information.
