Is Istanbul ripe for investment?
With an official population of 12 million and an unofficial count of nearer 15 million, this city teems with life. Yet it does not take long to see that this is a city in dire need of renovation and rejuvenation, and this is exactly what is happening.

In the county of Kent, to south of London, are a series of stunning castles and stately homes dating back to medieval times. Some of them even date back to the end of the Viking era and the Battle of Stamford Bridge in 1066. We have visited some of them, all within an hour's journey from London, and all open to the public most of the year. A journey in time and space. Our first visit goes to Hever Castle, the childhood home of Anne Boleyn. Later we shall look at some of the others.

Are you searching for that perfect location to buy your holiday home? Somewhere that has it all, beautiful summers with plenty of places to go swimming, peaceful forests for walking and in the winter pure white snow to rival any Christmas card? No, I am not talking about Canada, but somewhere a bit closer to home - yes that's right, Sweden. This northern European country with its silver birches and little red cottages has so much more to offer than IKEA and flat-pack furniture....
Breathtaking mountains, deep fjords with cascading waterfalls that plummet into the sea below, vibrant cities, midnight sun, northern lights...... Does this sound like something to stimulate the imagination and feed the soul? Well, then why not abandon the beaches of southern Europe this summer and head north to Norway.
In 2006 I came to North Cyprus for the first time. The reason for the trip was to view and possibly purchase an apartment at a development that had caught our attention. Being aware of all the land issues that affect both sides of this island, it was very important to us that the project was to be built on secure Pre 74 Turkish Title land.
The chosen location was in an area that had been completely ignored by other developers.
