Good day.
If the property is purchased in a marriage, then yes, it will be able to qualify 50:50. If you bought property before marriage, then there are nuances. If this is the only real estate, and if it is officially the family residence of the spouses, then without the permission of the spouse you will not be able to sell the property, although he cannot claim the money from the sale. But it may not give permission for sale. If the property was purchased in marriage, but there is a prenuptial agreement, which indicates that you are the sole owner of the property, then the spouse will not be able to claim it.
For more details, you need to consult a lawyer.

Good day. According to Bulgarian law, real estate bought by one of the spouses in marriage is their common property and 50/50 rights. If there is no marriage contract.

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?
