Regulation, Austerity Europe, the sovereign debt crisis, and a lending market that seems weaker than ever are the challenges facing Europe’s real estate industry in 2011.

What Emerging Trends Europe interviewees do know for sure is that while the recovery may be underway, it has just become significantly more complicated.
