Real Estate

Research the market well before you invest

Hi:

The National Post has a large article this morning about retirees moving to other parts of the world and buying real estate there.  Just what I write about, to be sure.  I had a problem - a huge problem - with the article however.  It advised that Spain was a good area, and neglected to point out that an estimated 30,000 homes bought by British ex-pats are about to be torn down because they were build by shady developers who didn't follow zoming regulations, were in cahoots with city officials, and all sorts of other shenanigans.
