I know that foreigners selling property here are loathed, similar to rest of the world.....But
1) I came here to enter semi-retirement. Bought a house, employed local tradesmen. 2) When I moved here I did NOT want to enter into the real estate market.....BUT 3) The area only had fixed GSM phonelines at the time and internet access was virtually impossible, I had a 3G sattelite link. 4) I was approached by an elderly gentleman with cancer who was desperate to sell his house but didn't know how to, he had bought a larger "bunker house" and wanted to use the cash to build this up as an inheritance for his kids. 5) No my wife is not Croatian. 6) We sold the gentlemans house, made his dream come true and he has been ever grateful....THEN 7) The neihbour wanted to sell her house and move back to Slavonia....etc...etc...and still they come.
Therefore, we do sell properties in Croatia, we do not go out and look for them, Croatians come to us and ask for our service. We advertise primarily on a Croatian Real Estate site and our own website. 90% of enquiries are from Croats..... where is the problem?
To be blatantly honest, we try are best, we are honest and at times it feels a little like a charity but I am doing my bit for the community and they are more than appreciative! ......Let the onslaught commence.
