Autumn traditionally is the season in which the demand for real estate increases which is a fact even now, in the midst of a global financial crisis. What is typical at this moment is the slower conclusion of deals, the more thorough research on the part of the buyers and the higher requirements on their part regarding the quality of the property and the services offered by the real estate agents.Here is what the data of BULGARIAN PROPERTIES show regarding the demand of real estate in the capital Sofia for the period 15.09 - 15.10.2008 based on actual demand by potential clients.
