Re: Zalaegerszeg Investment potential
I was only in Zalaegerszeg once, about three years ago, so I can't add much to the debate on this. It is a nice solid town, small place, with a very Austrian feel to it. Some nice old buildings downtown, but a fairly sleepy place. It is not really near anywhere, a bit more than half an hour from Lake Balaton and about three hours from Budapest, close to the Slovenian border.
Quite possible that the investor may be asked to pay "paddy prices", not too many foreigners hitting the market here I would say, and any local agent who has snared a foreigner will only be doing so because the client is potentially going to pay more than the local (and Israeli) buyers. Very hard to beat the local players at their own game here I would say, but not impossible either! Wouldn't rule it out, but it wouldn't be for me.
