Bulgaria website Viatel has data on the possibilities of foreign citizens to buy real estate in Bulgaria. According to the legislation of Bulgaria, a foreigner in order to acquire real estate in this country is enough to have a foreign passport, and the presence of a land plot in Bulgaria is not necessarily. In order to buy land, the entrepreneur officially needs to open a company in Bulgaria. At the same time, foreign owners of housing or commercial buildings have the same rights of tenants as indigenous Bulgarians. There are 3 stages in the design of the purchase of real estate. The first is to pay for the amount of reservation after the direct selection of the property purchase object. It is 1,500-2000 euros. Bulgarian bodies remove apartments from trading, then fix the purchase price, which further has the right to rise. At the second stage, which lasts 2-3 weeks, a preliminary purchase/sale agreement is drawn up and signed. It contains the conditions and points that will further be transferred to the final version of the contract. In more detail, the contract describes the property from the point of view of its commissioning, prices, conditions and terms of payment by the buyer. In order to sign the signing of the contract according to the plan, the buyer pays 20-30% of the total cost of the purchased object. At the third stage, the most important process of settling and signing the actual agreement between the two parties to the contract takes place. The contract takes the form of property documents after all the cash settlements are made between the parties. The basis for taxation is the price of a contract that a tax assessment of the value was carried out, and not the actual price of the contract. Typically, the tax estimate is up to 50% of the cost of the real contract. In general, state taxes make up 3% of the notarial tax assessment of real estate, which is indicated in the final contract of purchase/sale. Note that the price of a square meter of a plot near an old non -stube or sunny shore varies up to 490 euros. At the same time, such a district is considered quite presentable and prestigious, because there are resorts of Bulgaria with the choice of apartments of various configurations. It should be noted that property ownership in Bulgaria does not give the right to enter the country in a visa -free regime or claim citizenship in the future. However, their own apartments in the country give the owner and his family to get an annual reusable visa, the length of stay on which reaches 90 days.
