Buying property in Bulgaria
In Bulgaria, foreign buyers can purchase apartments and buildings with relative ease. Budget for taxes, fees, and legal costs on top of the property's price, potentially adding up to 8–9% overall.
Regional variations in costs can occur, especially with transfer tax rates affected by municipal decisions.
Recent changes in local real estate laws may introduce additional complexities.
