Romania research...III

Romanian real estate market will maintain for a long period its devel¬oping trend, in spite of the regressive tendency also imprinted to a consid¬erable part of the European space by the high risk mortgage credits crisis from the United States, which result is, for some time now, a state of uncer¬tainty and decrease on the regional markets.
The conviction that the real estate in¬vestment is the least risky in Romania is again dominating the agencies rep¬resentatives opinion. At the beginning of the real estate crisis in the United States, agents strongly believed that the internal market will not take the step backwards; then the course of things made them more moderate, but still defending the same position: the real estate remains the reference domain for profitable investments in Romania. A still growing domain that will continue to grow for quite a while until it reaches the point of a maybe prices adjustment. In other words, still “as safe as the Bank of England”.
Arguments supporting this idea, pub¬lished in the central daily newspapers and promoted by the national news agencies, are based on data and fig¬ures revealing that the internal market has still enough not covered space, and the time and money necessary for a long term continuous development. Also for a physical growth of prices.


There is much potential left. Pro¬vided mainly – according to RE/MAX Bastion specialists – by the banking system, the development of which made more permissive the warrant¬ed mortgage credits, the approx. 6% growth of a 70% private economy, a constant of the last years, the sala¬ries increasing as well as the grow¬ing demand for dwellings, coun-terbalancing the still low levelled offer. As a consequence, as long as demand and offer, the fundamental factors speaking for the real-opti¬mistically expressed opinion, remain on the same coordinates, the Roma¬nian real estate will continue its way forwards. Dwelling and land prices will not very soon go down.

Another fact speaking for this is that, differently from the European market that moved very quickly after the social events from before the 90’s, Romania did not build too much until 2005, and the residential projects only made their appearance two or three years ago. A noticeable difference, then, from countries hav¬ing built for tens of years and now forced to prices adjustments. The time-difference now offers Romania perspectives for the following years and a sooner entrance in the EU, the result of which was the prices imme-diate increase by 20% while aligning themselves to those of the member countries. At the same time, it is a significant fact that Romanians working abroad – a total of 2.5 mil¬lions – have opened a new gate for the real estate from inside the Romanian borders, known being that more and more of them can now af¬ford to buy here new houses.
Following this, only during this sum¬mer, in Bacau and its surroundings, for example, apartments and land prices recorded a 35% increase. Statistics still has more figures to support the expressed positive thinking: 87,397 transactions signed in the last month of this year’s first semester, semester counting a total of 227,235 transac¬tions; Romania, the fifth of the EU members concerning construction rhythm, three times more alert than the European average; 26,000 con¬struction licenses issued during the first semester, an increase by 28.4% as compared to the same period of last year and so on. Eventually, the limited exposure to the high risk mortgage credits market and the actual plans of certain giant companies as Microsoft and Renault to open centres in Roma¬nia constitute another advantage for the domain in discussion.


Opinion shared by the agencies rep¬resentatives activating in Romania is convergent – particularities like the exposed ones ensure the local mar¬ket’s emergence. The real estate offer in Romania is on-growing and at least the following two or three years will not bring the touch of the general crisis.

Romania research...II...Final Strategy/Conclusions

The commerce trails in Romania have a good perspective to growth as much as they want. The general panorama in a geographic, political and resources they are in the path to become a very important nodal potency in the trace of the commerce links. As we saw it the location and the politic relation are health and with a good vitality to continue investing like in Constanta that in the next yaers will increase the potencial of cargo to the double. But this not only good news, Romania also has to improve a lot of the internal connections and start to put in paper the regulations to grow in order and direction. One example is the Case of the las image where the street of Ion Bratianu that is clearly un develop space that can generate good results if there is a good intervention. The influence of the commercial trails is also very clear in respect to the general view, but there are nodal points that can be re-designed to form a better link.
In general the logistic of the commercial lines and structures are fine, but with a lot of work to do, the Danube for to take another example needs to be the same part as the Rhine in the other, and became a huge commercial source and also an enoumous way to transfer goods and service in a ecological and sustainable transportation.

COMMERCIAL AND LOGISTIC.
To understand the trade logistic, is good first understood the importance and the commerce to a country. All countries around the world try to always improve the negotations between other nations to increase the exchange and have better possibilities to grow. The understood of the potencials and the weakness of a country in a commercial point of view, is good to make a general panorama in a geographic, political and resources situation. The scale also is importante in a way that it can give to us the better strategic to afront the competition of the new commercial logistic in the world.



LOGISTIC IN COMMERCIAL CORRIDORS.

The conectivity between blocs and countries had a crucial importance to the commercial development. There exist some agreements at differents scales and zones, where the intention is to stablish the good flow of the goods and services and create strong bonds to extend the reach of the commercial borders of a country. Romania is part of different assosiations in where it have an excellent perspective and potencial to became an importan center in the logistic of the trade corridors in Europe, Middle East and Asia.



The national situation in Romania that is included in the European Union the last year, and the incursion to the capitalism in the last years; It coudn’t be better for a commercial growth. In a large view Rumania is located in a privileged zone in where his contact to the Black Sea and the Danube River makes a stronger input to the commercial flow.



Rumania is the European area is part of the Pan-European Transport Corridors and the Trans-european Transport Networks. The presences are mainly in 3 Corridors, which are very importat for the connections to the seas.
The Corridor 4 that runs from the center of Europe pass throw Romania and finish in two point of the Black Sea that are Constanta in Romania and Istanbul in Turkey. Is one of the few that ends in the Black Sea and the only that connect the center of the Continent to the limit of it. Thi create an excellent potenciality because it create this link between the West to the East and in commercial logistic is important in the X-large scale the connection to Asia ans Middle East.



The Corridor 9 runs from Helsinki to Alexandroupoli passing throw Iasi-Bucharesti-Giurgiu of Romania. This path connects the Baltic with the Mediterranean in a huge landbridge, which have a lot of influence in the commercer in the Eastern part of Europe. This landbridge also extend the potenciality of commerce to all the flow of the Mediterranean Sea that for times is one of the most important commercial seas in the world.



The final Corridor the have influence in Romania is the Corridor 7. This line for most is uno of the most important commercial paths in Europe, and this why because, is an inland waterway that cross all Europe and is the connexion between the North Sea and the Black Sea. This corridor is constitute by three rivers The Rhine that the potencial of inland commerce is considere one of the most importants rivers in the world, the Main that is the link between the Rhine and the Danube, and finally the Danube. The importantance as I say it is the link the two seas and have the increasing commercer of Europe in the Rhine. For Romania this is an excellent opportunity not only to recibe goods and services from the center, what means is the opportinity to Romania to produce and deliver to the Continent.



In the other hand Romania is also part of the TRACECA agreement that is an Intergovernmental Commission of the 14 member States of the Eastern European, Caucasian and Central Asian region. This corridor consist in a multilateral agreement for the international transport development, that in the commercial point of view is that have a excellent potencial in energy matter that is create in the Middle East and Asia.This corridor starts from the Easr European countries Romania, Bulgary and Ukraine and finish in Kazakhstan passing throw Turkey,Georgia, Uzbekistan and other countries.



For Romania the sum of this two partnerships of logistic commercial corridor put the country in a optimal location of link the Europe and Middle Eas-Asia from extreme to extreme and with the good development of the infrastructure can rise the trades in the country.

dEUS - The Architect

"What is the architect doing?
He is by the riverside
What is he thinking out there?
He is committing egocide
Now isn’t that a strange thing?
Well to him it feels just
Well we guess a person’s gotta do,
What a person feels he must

He said:
I won’t throw myself from the pier
I’m gonna go home and shut up for a year
And when that year is over I’ll reappear
And have a solution
I’ve reason to believe that what I find
Is gonna change the face of human kind
And all these years before well I was blind
That’s my conclusion
Cause I’m the architect"
