the banksters didn't run the housing inflation racket as soon in the east because most eastern countries didn't join until after 2006

even now still a very high percentage of bulgarians own their apartments and houses free and clear, but the fiat bullshit is infesting their system

they had this inflation bullshit under socialism too, and eventually it destroyed the country... i think the main way they inflated the currency was boondoggle projects and retarded, shitty and disorganised construction projects that didn't finish like the hotel in Shumen's main drag that stands like a testament to Todorov's legacy

Currently it’s low interest rates combined with high inflation. People are scrambling to take on mortgages at less than 3% interest rates as a way to keep their savings from evaporating. What is very sus is that right now more than 30% of the real estate purchases are done without debt, meaning probably a lot of the demand comes from oligarchs that are laundering money in preparation for the imminent Eurozone membership. I don’t see how these rises can be sustainable. It’s late stages bubble territory.

Congratulations!!!
