Bulgaria is a full member of the EU since the first of January 2007. This is a huge step for the former communist country and Bulgaria is looking towards a very bright future.

Investing in Bulgarian Property also can be the right step and the possibility to look into a bright future as well, for investors from all over the world. Capital gain of up to 30 % per year is possible. And investing in Bulgarian Property still means, investing in the lowest priced property market in Europe.

And the news travels fast! In 2006 the total sum for foreign investments in Bulgaria was 3,5 Billion Euros. 2007 this amount is climbing up to 4 Billion. Around 35 % of this amount will come from investing in Bulgarian Property.

Now, what is the key for successfully investing in Bulgarian Property?

Bulgaria is a rapidly developing country, but it is no secret that during the time of communism, the quality of the materials used for buildings and the motivation of the people building the houses, was mediocre at best. So, key number one for investing in Bulgarian Property is, to stay away from buying property which was built during the communist regime. There is enough new-build-property and off-plan-property available and it is not necessary, to look for the few "diamonds" amongst the resale properties. Investing in Bulgarian Property is an excellent opportunity, but buying a resale might not be the best possible move.

Other than staying away from resale properties, there are no real differences between investing in Bulgarian Property and investing in other countries.

Rule Number One: Analyze properly why you are investing in Bulgarian Property. Are you just looking for the highest possible profit from buying and re-selling? Are you buying, because you want to rent it out and make money from the letting? Or are you investing in Bulgarian Property, because you want to have your own holiday-accommodation and rent it out during the time when you are not using it? No matter what your reason is, investing in Bulgarian Property is always the right thing to do. But there are obviously different solutions for different demands. It is then our job, to show and offer you the different possibilities, to help you with your decisions.

Rule Number Two: Like everywhere else, the location of the property is the most important factor. Make sure to buy on the right place, a place where there is a lot of demand and where the reselling is easy and the profit guaranteed. Investing in Bulgarian Property is no different to anywhere else in the world - if your property is on the right spot, the resale and the profit will not be a problem.

Rule Number Three when investing in Bulgarian Property is not really something new or unique, but it cannot be stressed enough: never ever buy a property without the assistance of a lawyer. Find an English speaking lawyer and let him guide you through the whole buying process. Bulgaria has the most liberal laws in Europe for buying property, but still there are laws and rules to follow. And your lawyer will make sure that all requirements will be fulfilled.

Investing in Bulgarian Property is at the moment probably amongst the best possibilities to make a profit. But even with business, money and profit aside: Bulgaria is also a country well worth visiting, well worth spending some holidays. Just come to check it out - we gladly organize a trip for you!
