Buying a property in Bulgaria is a secure and well-regulated process when handled by experienced professionals. At BG Home, with over 18 years of experience on the Bulgarian real estate market, we guide our clients through every step of the purchase, ensuring a safe, transparent, and stress-free transaction.

Below you will find a clear overview of the property buying procedure in Bulgaria.

Step 1: Property Selection

The process begins with selecting the most suitable property based on your needs, budget, and investment goals.
BG Home offers a wide portfolio of verified properties along the Bulgarian Black Sea coast and inland areas.

✔ Professional consultation
✔ Market price analysis
✔ Tailored property selection

Step 2: Legal Due Diligence

Before any commitment is made, our legal team performs a full legal check of the property, including:

-Ownership verification
- Check for mortgages, debts, or encumbrances
- Verification of building permits and Act 16 (Permission for Use)
- Compliance with Bulgarian property law

This step guarantees that the property is legally clean and safe to purchase.

Step 3: Reservation Agreement & Deposit

Once you choose a property, a reservation agreement is signed.
A reservation deposit is paid to secure the property and stop it from being offered to other buyers.

✔ Reservation secures the agreed price
✔ Terms and deadlines are clearly defined

Step 4: Preliminary Contract

A Preliminary Purchase Contract is prepared and signed by both parties.
It outlines:

- Final purchase price
- Payment schedule
- Completion date
- Rights and obligations of buyer and seller

At this stage, a larger deposit is usually paid.

Step 5: Final Notary Deed & Ownership Transfer

The transaction is completed before a Bulgarian Notary Public.
The Notary Deed officially transfers ownership to the buyer and is registered in the Property Register.

✔ Legal ownership transfer
✔ Buyer becomes the official property owner

BG Home assists you throughout the entire notary procedure.

- Registration with municipality and tax authorities
