Retiring To Somewhere In The Sun? If So Where Is A Good Place To Go?

As we get older and we get closer to the end of our working days many of us start to think about what we will do with our time when we finally finish working. Many people will look to spending more time with their family, friends and loved ones where as some may look to use the time to enjoy a favourite pastime or hobby. One thing that we will all have in common is hoping that we will have enough money put to one side so we can enjoy whatever we choose to do with our retirement, whether it is in savings, property or a pension. As the world seemingly gets smaller and smaller and foreign shores become more accessible to travels there has been a massive upsurge in people choosing to retire in the sun where the pace of life may be more suited to people of an older generation. Whereas in the past this was solely possible for retired bank managers and high flyers to achieve many countries with cheaper property have been opened up to foreigners who wish to live there. So if you are thinking of spending the rest of your days in the sun where are the best countries to choose?

Many of the Mediterranean European countries have a slower pace of life than those in the North of Europe as well as having a better climate and these countries are generally the most popular choices with people of any age who are looking to move abroad. The problem here in is that the old economic rule of supply and demand; the more people demand property in a country the higher the price is driven. The trick is either to find a region within these countries that is relatively untouched by the foreign invasion or else look to some of the less popular countries such as Croatia, Hungary or Bulgaria.

There are still some areas of France, Italy and Spain that of yet have seen only a minimal amount of foreigners moving there but these areas are getting smaller and smaller and prices are rising in line with those in the rest of the country. On the other hand Bulgaria is still a fairly under developed tourist market and some very nice property can be picked up for a very reasonable price.

Most of the Bulgarian property that foreigners choose to go for is on the Black Sea coast which stretches for some 378km and has some of the most beautiful beaches anywhere in Europe. Bulgaria now attracts over seven million tourists per year which keeps the coastal resorts busy throughout the year and with an average temperature of 14.7 degrees so the temperature is ideal, not too hot and not too cold.

The choices in Bulgarian property are as wide as any where else in Europe with apartments, villas and standard houses available all at very reasonable prices. Other than the very reasonable property prices that are available in Bulgaria and the climate one of the main attractions of buying Bulgarian property is the availability of flights in and out of the country.

So if you are looking to take it easy upon your retirement and are looking to maybe move to sunnier climes why not look at buying a Bulgarian property, the climate is good, the people are friendly and the coastline is vast and beautiful.
