Bulgaria has emerged as the latest European hotspot for British investors hoping to buy an overseas property, a new report has revealed.
According to Moneycorp's new Foreign Focus Index (FFI), 12 per cent of Brits buying abroad are seriously considering Bulgaria and are spending around 90,000 EUR (£61,000) on a typical property.
The popularity of this eastern European country has been attributed to a number of factors including cheap flights, winter skiing and summer sun.
Moneycorp's study also revealed that more than a quarter of enquiries for new property purchases in the last three months of last year were for a second home in Spain.
The FFI offers a step-by-step guide to investing, advice from leading overseas property experts and the implications of foreign exchange rates on a property purchase.
Meanwhile, a new global house price index from property service firm Knight Frank has revealed that Bulgaria saw 13 per cent growth in the last quarter of 2006.
