How Much Is Your Property Worth Today?

BULGARIAN PROPERTIES — Thu, 16 Apr 2026 00:00:00 GMT

The real estate market in Bulgaria at the beginning of 2026 remains active. After a period of accelerated growth over the past year—driven by a combination of factors such as strong bank lending, limited supply in key segments, and expectations surrounding the country’s entry into the eurozone—the first months of the year are showing signs of stabilization rather than continued rapid growth. Demand remains strong, with high-quality properties selling quickly, while overpriced listings tend to stay on the market longer or undergo price adjustments.Bank lending continues to be a key driver of the market, although its impact on price growth is now more moderate compared to previous periods.

In the period under review, the emphasis in purchases was on furnished apartments from the secondary market. “This is where the price difference we observed in the last quarter of 2025 comes from“, Stoykova explains, specifying that the average price at the end of last year was 2700-2800 EUR/sq m compared to 1900 EUR/sq m in 2024.“In 2025, we observed a price increase, which, firstly, was not expected and, secondly, even

According to her, the main reasons for this are the available bank lending at still unchanged low levels, the growth of incomes, as well as the potential entry of Bulgaria into the eurozone, which stimulates the interest in buying, while at the same time pulls sellers away and makes them wait. This keeps supply at low levels, which drives up prices."We see prices rising again this

Owning a holiday property in a beach or ski resort in Bulgaria is a dream come true for many.

Sofia housing market at the end of another strong year - market report

Thu, 05 Dec 2024 00:00:00 GMT

%img1%Sofia's housing market ends 2024 with impressive results, consolidating its position as the leading property market in Bulgaria. There has been a steady increase in prices since the beginning of the year, but the main impetus came in the second half of 2024. Polina Stoykova MRICS, Managing Director and Head of Research of BULGARIAN PROPERTIES, explains that this growth is largely due to the imbalance between supply and demand, as well as increased interest in buying homes in the context of low mortgage rates. "New offers on the market are down 10% year-on-year, which is also a continuation of a similar decline in 2023. This is limiting opportunities for buyers, particularly on the resale market where supply is extremely tight," she adds.Bank lending, which is a major contributor to price growth, has increased 36% year-on-year.

House prices in the coastal city of Varna are rising - what are the reasons?

bnt.bg — Wed, 27 Nov 2024 00:00:00 GMT

Property prices in the coastal city Varna and the region have increased by nearly 16% in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the same period last year. This rise places Varna among the most expensive cities for real estate in Bulgaria, after Sofia. The price increase is driven by several factors, including a 5% rise in the number of completed transactions compared to the previous year. Experts attribute the price hike to the upcoming entry of Bulgaria into the Eurozone, as well as the reduced supply of secondary market properties, with many owners holding back their offers in anticipation of further price increases. Among the most sought-after properties are apartments with sea views, which are often sold even before construction is completed, despite being more expensive. Buyers typically prioritize factors such as location, infrastructure, and the completion status of the building,

%img1%2024 kicked off with a dynamic property market in Bulgaria, and this activity was sustained throughout the first quarter, making it one of the strongest quarters in housing market history. This was confirmed by data from the Registry Agency, which showed an increase in sales volumes in the country's leading markets. This year, the market switched into a higher gear. This was largely to be expected in view of still low lending rates, rising incomes, slowing inflation and the rate of house price growth on the one hand, and Bulgaria's expected acceptance into the eurozone on the other. At the same time, this new speed has contributed to an acceleration in price growth after a slowdown at the end of 2023.

How much is your property worth and how to set a perfect listing price?

Mon, 18 Mar 2024 00:00:00 GMT

When deciding, or even just considering listing a property for sale, our first question is often: What price should I be looking for my property.Every homeowner is probably trying to do their own mini market research. They look at the listings in their area, read the latest statistics on property transactions, turn to an agency to get an idea of what they can get.Very often, regardless of what the market says, owners have their own personal idea of what price they want to achieve - relative to their investment and desired return or relative to their own needs. And in their desire to achieve the best, they always take as their benchmark the highest prices and the most expensive offers, guided by the maxim that a thing is worth what its owner is willing to sell it for.The opposite is also true - in the search for a quick sale or due to a lach of understanding about the specifics of the

Eurozone Entry: Implications for Bulgaria's Real Estate Sector

www.novinite.com — Tue, 20 Feb 2024 00:00:00 GMT

Amidst the backdrop of Bulgaria's dynamic real estate landscape, all eyes are on the potential impact of the country's imminent entry into the Eurozone. The bustling market in Sofia, Bulgaria's capital, kicked off 2023 with a noticeable decline in transactions, hovering around 14%. However, subsequent quarters saw a gradual improvement, with reductions limited to 11.7% and 5.4%, respectively, as reported by the Registration Agency.

EU court lifts restrictions on buying agricultural land in Bulgaria

Krassen Nikolov | Euractiv.bg — Fri, 19 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT

The EU Court of Justice lifted the restrictions EU citizens face when buying agricultural land in Bulgaria in a ruling published on Thursday, more than 17 years after the country joined the block.Obstacles should have already been removed in 2014. Still, the Bulgarian parliament adopted changes to the Law on the Ownership and Use of Agricultural Lands, which created serious obstacles for EU citizens even though this went against the EU treaty law.Particularly problematic for the EU court was the Bulgarian law, which provides that people who have resided in Bulgaria for over five years can acquire ownership rights to agricultural land, though this rule did not apply only to agricultural land.“Thus, that legislation restricts the free movement of capital enshrined in Article 63 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,” the EU Court ruled.View the full text of the court

Polina Stoykova and Ivan Krumov about the property market on NOVA TV

Stefan Stefanov, nova.bg — Thu, 18 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT

Property prices in Bulgaria have jumped by almost 80% in the last 10 years. This is shown by Eurostat data. The most serious price increase was recorded in Estonia - 220%. In our country the jump is nearly 80%, and in Italy the trend is the opposite. There, a cheapening by 8% is reported.Sofia ranks at the top in terms of property price growth when compared to 107 other cities worldwide. It is impressive that the appreciation in our capital is ahead of Sydney and New York. In a year, the reported jump is almost 9%.NOVA TV turned to BULGARIAN PROPERTIES for comment on these trends. The Managing Director of the company, Polina Stoykova MRICS, said that despite the serious price growth, the demand for property in the Bulgarian capital remains high.

How to prepare your home for sale at the best possible price?

BULGARIAN PROPERTIES — Tue, 05 Dec 2023 00:00:00 GMT

%img2%The real estate market in Bulgaria has seen a strong growth in the last two years - not only as a result of inflation and the rise in commodity prices, but also as a response to increased demand from investors and buyers. The upward trend continues in the second half of 2023, although the pace has slowed considerably, according to the statistics.And while in Germany the first symptoms of a crisis in the sector have already begun to be felt, in Bulgaria the still low cost of credit continues to support demand. At the moment, deals are being done mainly off-plan, as attractive projects manage to sell out long before Act 16 and banks are flexible in providing financing.The more limited supply of housing on the secondary market positions the sellers of such properties in a very advantageous position, points out Polina Stoykova MRICS, Managing Director of BULGARIAN PROPERTIES.Those who

The housing market in Sofia in 2023 - new market report

Mon, 30 Oct 2023 00:00:00 GMT

In 2023, there was no major change in the housing market in Bulgaria. The year was relatively calm and balancing and will end with excellent market activity.The rate of price growth slowed and in Q3 was just under 6%, a trend that was predicted by us at the end of last year.In addition to prices stabilising and holding at the levels reached, the market was supported by still low mortgage interest rates. They have remained unchanged this year, which has encouraged home buyers.This is a trend observed worldwide. Expert mortgage brokers in Sydney say that the stability in prices coupled with persistently low mortgage interest rates has created a favorable environment for both prospective homebuyers and existing homeowners looking to refinance or upgrade.Active buyers on the market are both those looking to invest and protect against inflation and those looking for their new home.

How is the property market in Bulgaria developing at the moment? Are the houses in the village still in demand?The interest in suburban houses is strong, says Polina Stoykova from BULGARIAN PROPERTIES. 'Rural houses are in demand and this trend is based on the fact that people increasingly appreciate the good life - in fresh air, in peace and where they have conditions for outdoor games. The problem in this market is more about whether there is enough quality supply,' shifts the focus of the conversation to Polina.In fact, the interest in rural houses is not from today, but its peak was in 2021, around the time of the COVID pandemic. The market is reporting a shortage of good quality and nice properties.
