Buying an apartment in Kalia

Firstly we advise that you understand your financial position before entering into any form of deal. If you are considering re mortgaging or taking out a loan, please speak to your adviser before hand, and have something in principal.

Select apartment you want to buy.

Agree a payment structure with us, to suit both needs, however this will depend on what stage the development is at.

Reserve apartment: we will accept 1000 Euros to take the property off the market. (this will be deducted from the final amount you owe) If you require a solicitor you can instruct at this point.

Sign a preliminary contract (something similar to ‘sold subject to contract' in U.K) this details all particulars of property, the developer and yourself.

Follow payment structure as agreed in the Preliminary contract. We will issue you with a written receipt for all money received. And keep you constantly updated with the progress of the development

When development is completed, you would be required to come back to Bulgaria inspect your apartment and complex, discuss any concerns you may have with us. Arrange final installment. Go to public notary office with us and translator (solicitor if requested) to conclude the deal.

All fees for solicitors, notary and translators are paid by the buyer directly. Average fees for purchasing a property in Bulgaria is around 3.5% of your property price.

With all purchases. The time scale between putting down a deposit and completing your deal is negotiable; this is why we have not specified this on our buying guide.
