The interest for rural houses in Bulgaria is increasing

Bulgarian real estate brokers report that more and more Bulgarians prefer to change their apartments in the city for a rural house in the village. The biggest demand for rural properties is for the areas around the cities of Varna, Veliko Tyrnovo, Sofia, Bourgas and Blagoevgrad.

The finished houses which are ready for living cost around 40 - 50 000 euro, significantly cheaper are the old houses which need renovation. You can find an old rural house for less than 5000 euro, but you will have to invest much more to make it livable.

There is a difference in the prices depending on the regions. Normally the prices around Sofia are higher compared with the other places. The villages around Veliko Tyrnovo for long time now attract a huge interest. The most expensive are the rural properties in the area of Bourgas, due to their close proximity to the beach resorts.

The real estate brokers admit that due to the crisis, buying a property in the Bulgaria countryside could be quite profitable. The increased interest in rural properties in Bulgaria will not stop depopulation for now, as the demand is only for properties located in the villages close to the big towns.

The preliminary analyzes of the real estate agencies in Bulgaria are indicating that the boom in the demand fr rural properties in Bulgaria will continue to grow in the next months, and with the demand the prices will also go up.

For this reason the advice to the people who want to sell is opposite to the one to buyers - wait a bit more, better times for selling are coming.
