Buying and Selling a Property in Bulgaria

Most holiday makers who travel to Bulgaria head for its long sandy beaches situated on the shores of the Black Sea. However there is much more to this country, with a host of outdoor pursuits from hiking trails and horse riding routes inland, in and around Bulgaria’s forests and mountains. The Rila and Pirin Mountains offer visitors the opportunity to catch sight of native species of bears, lynx and rare birds. Bulgaria’s pretty villages in the more rural areas are well worth seeing too, and there is an efficient transport system both between the main cities of Sofia and Varna and outlying areas making Bulgaria accessible for tourists.

Bulgaria’s popularity with visitors from overseas extends into real estate with many properties in Bulgaria bought both as homes or investments. Bulgaria has undergone extensive redevelopment since it became part of the EU and property is easy to find, especially on the coast. There are quite a few overseas property purchasers who are buying second homes or retirement properties in Bulgaria. In order to buy a Bulgarian property it is necessary to register ownership with the local authority and at present foreign nationals need to set up a company in order to purchase a property. This is set to change in the next few years when buyers from overseas will be able to buy both land and buildings.

There is also a wide variety of property to rent in Bulgaria, from beach apartments, ski chalets to rural villas. Properties can be rented for a holiday or for the longer term, and popular places for renting a vacation property in Bulgaria include Yambol and Bourgas – typical Bulgarian villages which feature pavement cafes, restaurants as well as nearby golf courses and retail outlets. Holidaymakers who rent a property in Bulgaria can also take advantage of a trip to neighboring Turkey – an easy driving distance away for a day out.
