Roll over the items for more details.
1. Attractive low prices of properties in Romania
Despite the continuous rise of the prices of real estate properties, the market in Romania offers still the most attractive prices among all other countries in the EU.
Statistics for the last two years show that prices for both land and homes have doubled in some areas and specialists assume the market will follow the same course in the next five to ten years.
2. The European integration of Romania
Romania became a full member of NATO in 2004, and in the year 2007 it is expected to join the European Union as well. The country will also introduce the euro as an official currency.

People who have invested in Romania, especially the ones who have made investments in real estate, will benefit from the significant increase of the real estate prices and collect good profit if they decide to sell their properties.
