Good afternoon.
You need to purchase real estate and open an account in a Bulgarian bank. Next, you need to have a confirmed pensioner status in Russia (pension certificate) and with all documents (for real estate and pension) apply to the Consulate in Russia to obtain permanent residence status in Bulgaria.
We do all this, you can contact our agency.

Hello, Anatoly!
Thank you for your question.
It is necessary to start, of course, with the definition and selection of the region of residence. Which city or resort would you like to settle in? What kind of infrastructure do you need? In our experience, quite large cities like Burgas or Varna are more suitable for your purposes, but Sofia or Plovdiv are often chosen. It is possible to consider areas of smaller cities, such as Sveti Vlas, Pomorie or Sozopol, for example.
Next, we determine the size of the housing - how many bedrooms and bathrooms do you need? Keep in mind that the living room is usually combined with the kitchen and it is difficult to find more than 2 bathrooms.
The issues of residence permit and permanent residence for pensioners are solved quite easily and take a little time and effort - our lawyer will prepare everything and help you go through all the instances. Details of the residence permit status will continue to be announced in full upon request.
After determining the choice of place of residence, we select several suitable objects and show them to you on the spot or send them to the post beforehand. We take full responsibility for the organization of your trip and meeting, accommodation and screenings.
When the apartment is selected, we draw up a preliminary purchase agreement with you, in which we determine the terms of payment and registration of the property. In parallel, we are initiating the process of obtaining a residence permit and preparing all the necessary documents.
After receiving a certificate of ownership and going through simple procedures, you get a residence permit, then a residence permit and permanent residence.
I will answer all your questions in more detail by mail or phone - please contact us.

You need to start with the main thing-to understand where you want to move.
Choose a region for subsequent permanent residence based on your state of health, preferences, and lifestyle.
Bulgaria is an amazing country, where you can find beautiful mountains, warm sea, and balneological resorts.
It is impossible to understand this in a week, or even in a couple of months.
For example, you came to the sea in summer and you like everything, and if you come to the same place in winter, your feelings may be completely different:high humidity, strong wind from the sea, deserted cities.
Therefore, I want to give you one piece of advice:
TAKE YOUR TIME WITH THE PURCHASE OF REAL ESTATE.
To obtain a D visa on the basis of a "secured pensioner", you do not need to own an apartment, it is enough to show in a package of documents a notarized lease agreement for the period of your stay in Bulgaria.
Live 3 months at sea in winter, 3 months in Hisar or Sandanski (mineral waters) in spring, 3 months in summer in the mountains.
Take a look, get used to it, understand what you like best.
Rent in Bulgaria is inexpensive, from 100 to 300 euros for 1-bedroom apartments per month +communal apartment on the meter.
But it will give you the opportunity to make the right choice.
And so, succumbing to the persuasions of realtors who want to sell something quickly, you can make a mistake:buy it, but the climate will not suit and what should I do?
In addition, if you start living, then you will be introduced to the environment, you will be able to choose something reasonable for yourself at a price.
If you have questions about obtaining a residence permit, we will tell you in detail what package of documents is needed and the algorithm for obtaining it.

Good afternoon!
You need to start with a study tour.It is a study trip, like nothing else, that helps clients make a purchase decision, which regions are more suitable for them, which type of property will be more comfortable and which object meets all their requirements.Of course, the preliminary stage of studying objects and collecting information is also important. But no photos, descriptions and advertisements will replace your personal perception of the object during a real inspection. Therefore, we advise you to allocate a little time, 3-4 days are enough to come, see Bulgaria with your own eyes, feel the atmosphere of its cities and resorts, hear the advice of our experts, visit the sites you are interested in and make a decision based on what you have seen!
It is pensioners who use priority conditions for moving and permanent residence in Bulgaria. According to article 24 (paragraph 10) of the Law on Foreigners, a visa for long-term stay in Bulgaria can be obtained by a retired foreigner who has sufficient funds to live in the country and has pension provision. With 1,000-3,000 euros in his Bulgarian bank account, a Russian pensioner can legally stay in Bulgaria and have the status of a long-term stay.
We help our clients, both in the purchase and sale transaction, and in all matters that interest you after acquiring real estate.
Sincerely yours!
Daria
