Bulgaria has a liberal policy towards foreign investors in property, but there are a few things you will need to consider.  There are several ways in which you can buy your property in Bulgaria.  If you are purchasing a resale property you will need to either establish a limited liability company (Ltd.) or choose one of the following ways to become an owner:

• Establishing a joint venture within existing local companies
• Setting up a new venture 

Foreign investors in Bulgarian property can open bank accounts denominated in local or foreign currency.  There is no restriction on the amount which a company may deposit.  The Bulgarian government's policy towards foreign investment is positive and encouraging.  This can only mean foreign investors in Bulgaria property will benefit from the future prosperity of the country.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

• There is a "tax estimation value" and a "purchase price" of  real estate in Bulgaria.  The "tax estimation value" is used for property taxation purposes and can be lower than the purchase price.  Many of the Bulgarian property owners prefer to write the "tax estimation value" in the title deeds.  There may therefore be a discrepancy between the price written in the title deeds and the price that you are paying.  There are historical reasons for this practice, however we can assist you and negotiate owners on this matter.  Please inform us well in advance if you would like our assistance in relation to this matter.
• The customary term for the owner of a property to move out after completion of a sale is one month. This can be negotiated on if the buyer requires a shorter term.  If so, you should ask for our assistance in good time to enable us to negotiate with owner to reduce the term of occupation. 
• If you wish to purchase a property through our company you will need to pay a reservation fee which will be non refundable in case you decide not to proceed with a purchase.
• If you reserve a property through our company you will need to place a reservation fee as required by the developer and not later than 7days after your property has been reserved.  If you fail to place the deposit as required, the property will be released automacally back on sale without further notice.
