The capital city of Sofia has one of the largest share of sold properties with deals rising from 4,210 in the third quarter of last year to 4,536.

Burgas is the region with the steadiest sales increase with transactions growing by 23,43% especially during the summer season. Thus, the tourists’ number is jumping too. Russians and Ukrainian tourists are the main visitors in Bulgaria for holidays.
Local media report that the property market near the sea is recovering and thus attracting more and more tourists. A transaction increase by 20% is registered.
