Hello Inna!
A citizen of any other country has the right to purchase real estate in Bulgaria, including a citizen of Belarus. To purchase real estate, first of all, you need to decide on the area, budget, and get acquainted with real offers. Of course, it is best to come to Bulgaria and see everything with your own eyes. Now in the COVID environment, we also very often practice the possibility of distance selling. We conduct online inspections of apartments, areas, streets, etc. In the event that you have already decided on the choice of real estate, a deposit agreement is signed, a deposit of 1000-2000 euros is paid and the selected real estate is removed from sale, the real estate is checked immediately for cleanliness, from this moment the preparation of documents for the transaction begins. As a buyer, you do not need to wait until all documents for the transaction are received.
Yours faithfully,
Natalia Radushko

Hello Inna, thanks for your request!
To purchase real estate in Bulgaria and sign all the necessary documents and agreements, you need a valid passport.
If you decide to buy a separate house or villa, you need to open a company in Bulgaria, to which the land will be registered.
If you decide to buy an apartment, then you only need your passport!
There will be questions, we will be happy to answer and help!
With respect

Good evening, Inna.
Yes, citizens of Belarus have the right to buy real estate in Bulgaria. For this you only need a foreign passport.
1. First you decide on an apartment (house). Either you yourself are looking at the options with your realtor, or if a distance sale is supposed, your realtor will advise you on real estate according to your budget and preferences, make a detailed video of the apartment (s).
2. Next, the selected apartment is checked by the company's attorney. If all documents are in order and the object is "clean", a preliminary sales contract is prepared. You sign it and pay a deposit, the standard deposit is 2,000 euros and is included in the price. The deposit is made to the lawyer's account of the lawyer of the company and remains with him until the day of the transaction.
3. Next, the lawyer prepares all the documents for the transaction. On the appointed day of the transaction, all documents, transaction history and the absence of encumbrances on the object you have chosen are checked again (this is done by a lawyer who has access to the database of the state of the objects). The time from the payment of the deposit to the day of the transaction varies from 7 to 20 days.
4. At the transaction, the translator reads you the text of the notarial deed and you and the seller, in the presence of a lawyer and a notary, put your signatures in the notarial deed. Also, local taxes are paid for real estate registration (usually 4% of the tax value of the property).
The notarial deed is registered in the district court at the location of the property. The registration period is usually 3 days.
You yourself or a real estate agent (by your power of attorney) registers the purchased property in BULSTAT and receives a statistical number to identify you as the owner of the property.
It is necessary to register your property with the tax office (NAP), conclude agreements with electricity and water supply companies in Bulgaria, and, if necessary, conclude an agreement with the management company.
5. If a remote transaction is expected, the lawyer prepares documents - declarations and power of attorney from you in his name, they are sent to you, you certify them at a notary and send them back to Bulgaria. On the basis of a power of attorney, a lawyer can conduct a transaction without your presence. You transfer the money for the transaction to a lawyer's account, then he himself sends them to the seller's account.
6. Inspections, transfers, selection of objects are provided by our agency free of charge for you.

Hello! We are considering options for buying a house with a plot of land in Bulgaria for permanent residence. Please tell me if it is currently possible for Russian citizens to make such a transaction and register the purchased property for themselves. Thanks!

BULGARIA. Property maintenance
We bought an apartment in Bulgaria two years ago. The house has the status of a housing estate. About 80% belongs to a Bulgarian company and is rented out in the summer.
During all this time, the manager has not provided any documents for all our requests and refuses to accept the support fee only from us. They asked him many times to take a dachshund, he says then and so on for two years! And he tells the neighbors that we don't pay. What should I do and what is the threat of this situation?

BULGARIA. Visa, residence permit, citizenship
We, two pensioners from Israel, have a permanent residence permit in Bulgaria. Is it possible to get any kind of residence status in Bulgaria for our daughter (single, 46 years old), given that we need her help caring for us. Are there any exceptions to the general rules for family reasons?
