The team at European Reality Services have always gone the extra mile to

make sure we could progress issues during our infrequent visits to Prague

and actually meet people face to face who would be involved in the ongoing

management of the property. Given we were disappointed with the input from

our legal representation the ’on the ground’ input was very necessary to

support completion of the transaction and a so far trouble free let.

 

Regards and look forward to speaking soon.

Buying property in the Czech Republic is like going through a bureaucratic

We would strongly recommend foreign real estate buyers in the Czech Republic

Dear Mr. Williams,

 

Thank you for your help in obtaining Czech residency for my wife and I. We

are now able to buy property in the Czech Republic in our own names.

Hopefully, as long as the tax regime does not change, we should see

significant tax advantages in the future.

 

Please also thank Katka for all her support with our applications and

particularly the liaison with the local authorities. We were impressed with

the efficient manner in which our requirements were handled with very little

inconvenience to us. We simply had to turn up and pick up our residency

documents.

 

Wishing you the best for the future.

Jimmy,

 

I am extremely pleased with the service provided by European Reality.  I am in the early stages of a property purchase in Prague following a visit in late November 2006.  During my visit I met with Jimmy Williams for the first time and at short notice he went out of his way to meet with me over the weekend.

 

Jimmy was very informative and knowledgeable about the developments in Prague and the suburbs.  This knowledge extended to market rates for sale and renting, letting potential and a critique of developments both past, present and planned. 

 

 

Subsequently Jimmy has kept me up to date with developments in the planned purchase and always responds promptly and accurately to any queries.  This personal, informative and comprehensive sales and letting service has provided the confidence and comfort I required in order to move forward and purchase an overseas property.

EUROPEAN REALITY

 

I was first introduced to EUROPEAN REALITY by my brother-in-law in 2005, with a view to purchasing an apartment in Prague. Both my wife and myself have always found the staff to be very approachable and professional at all times. We found it to be very reassuring to have the option of communicating by E-mail, or speaking directly to someone in English on the phone. European Reality made the purchase of the apartment, the kitchen and the furniture extremely easy. We now own a lovely apartment in an idyllic spot, which through European Reality we now have a very satisfied tenant, paying regular rent, with no problems whatsoever. European Reality have always given me a first class service, both in the purchasing and then the renting of the property in Prague and I would have no hesitation in recommending them to friends and colleagues.

 

Yours faithfully

Subject: European Reality Recommendation

 

Dear Sir/Madam

 

My name is Richard Tapley and I live and work in Dubai as an airline pilot. I first met Mr Jimmy Williams at a property trade show in November 2005. I had gone to the show being held in Dubai to specifically research "Buy to Let" property opportunities in Prague. My previous experience of rental property had been from the UK market where I had learnt the hard way that having a professional and trustworthy letting agent was the key to any "Buy to Let" investment.

 

On first meeting Mr Williams I was struck by his depth of knowledge and understanding of the local market. He was able to answer all my questions regarding the Buy to Let process from what property to buy to the procedure of dealing with late paying of rent etc. He was open and honest when replying to my questions and his enthusiasm for the market was obvious.

 

On Mr Williams advice I paid a visit to Prague and was hosted by European Reality. I was shown around all the current projects in and around the city by a local member of Mr Williams European Reality  

team. By the end of my visit I had the confidence to go ahead with the purchase of two properties.

 

Mr Williams and his team of local experts helped me with all aspects of the purchasing process from how to gain residency to letting out the properties when they complete.

 

I highly recommend European Reality to any future investor who wants to take advantage of an exciting and profitable investment opportunity with the peace of mind of knowing that they a receiving the best service and advice.

 

yours faithfully,

 

Richard Tapley

 

We have helped Richard will his buying decision process from start to finish and we are now providing our rental, management, Kitchen installation and accountancy services.
