According to The Telegraph, Moldova and its capital Chisinau, are among the top places to buy-to-let property. What that means, you ask? Well, exactly how it sounds – buying a property in order to rent it out to someone else. It’s the type of investment that pays off, especially in countries such as Moldova, where square meter in the city center costs around $900.
