Bulgarian Property market stabilized
Property market in Bulgaria was still far from the peaks reached at the height of the real estate boom in 2007. It appears to have bottomed out. The numbers of Bulgarian property transactions in 2011 was up by 22% compared to the previous year. The most of the deals have been with agricultural land, according to real estate consultancy firm BULGARIAN HOUSE LTD.A positive development was the decrease in the annualized interest rate charged by banks for mortgages, in particular those leva, which now were on the same level as interest rates on mortgage in EUR. Most prospective customers seek real estates in the low price range, defined by Bulgarian House Ltd as 20 000 to 50 000EUR, mainly in Ski and sea Resorts in Bansko, Borovets, Varna, Golden Sands. The other customers search village houses with price range 15000-20 000EUR for renovated house and 5 000-10, 000Eur for none renovated.
Bulgarian Property prices had stabilized. The strong drop in prices over the previous several years have made certain properties in Bulgaria’s winter and seaside resorts attractive with Russian buyers in particular active in purchasing real estate on the Black Sea coast.

Buying property in Europe from the other side of the world, presents all manner of difficulties, even before one factors in the current martial law in Philippines , and Brexit ( for a UK passport ) in Europe. I had previous experience of buying in Bulgaria, and already knew a number of local agents. Kunka, I came to know about a year before I finally managed to make the return... she admitted that the extraordinary set of circumstances I faced, took more than a little understanding, since they seemed unbelievable. Nonetheless, she neither flinched, nor blinked, and with utmost patience, helped me through not only the purchase, but a whole heap of other problems. Both she and Hristov were kindness itself, and always stood ready to assist. Not only were they very capable as agents, and professional in every way, but their assistance has been extremely welcome, given the immense difficulties faced. With experience of agents here and internationally, I'm happy to offer the highest of recommendations for their professionalism , help well beyond the terms of house purchase, and for their sincerity and friendship.
