We would like to say a big THANKS to Kunka & Hristo from Bulgarian House team. You've been a great help to us, not only with the things involved with buying a house in Bulgaria, setting up a company and all the paperwork ect, but also when we've had other questions relating to life in general in Bulgaria we had no one else to ask but Kunka,. She's gone above & beyond her role as an estate agent, she must have bent over backwards to be as helpful as she possibly can & has kept us well informed every step of the way with regards to the sale. Thanks again, Kate & Mel xXx
