Buyers Guide

How to buy an apartment in Bulgaria?

1. Search on our site or simply email us with your requirements and criteria. If we don't already have anything you like, then we will go the extra mile and request our people to find new properties in Bulgaria, according to your requests. We have an extensive database of apartments in Bulgaria for sale and only upload properties, which we believe will be of interest to our customers. Once again, if you don't find what you are looking for just ask.

2. Request additional information about the property, which you like. Generally we post all available information, but if you need to know anything not already there, just email us and we will do our best to come up with the information you need.

3. Plan your viewing trip to Bulgaria. We can help with that and recommend a travel agent and book accommodation in Bulgaria. No maps or pictures can replace see the construction site and the surrounding with your own eyes. Meeting our people in Bulgaria will clear all questions or clarification you might have. We can meet you at the airport, take you to your hotel and arrange a time to meet and talk and view the property. You will be offered to see similar apartments, if you are interested, which are not on the web site.

4. On many occasions we can help you finance your purchase of an apartment in Bulgaria. On many occasions we can help you finance as much as 70 percents of the cost.
5. You don't have to register a company when buying an apartment in Bulgaria.
6. You sign the Preliminary Contract, which spells out all the details for the sale, price, parameters, seller, buyer, etc. About 4 percents are all additional taxes, charges, fees, solicitor and notary fees, municipal fees, etc. Once this contract is signed, searches are carried out to make sure that the titles deeds are valid, that any relevant licenses and permissions are taken into consideration, that any debts on the title are brought to light, and that the terms of the final contract are agreeable to both buyer and vendor.

7. The last step in the buying process is to sign the Notary Act - essentially an official declaration that you have agreed to buy the property. At this point any state and municipal taxes must be paid and any outstanding balance of monies must be paid to the vendor.

8. We always recommends using a Solicitor or Lawyer as this is the only way you can make sure everything is clean and there are no bad surprises later.
