Just sold my house through Bulgarian…

Just sold my house through Bulgarian properties. And I really can't fault them. From start to finish Pavel couldn't do enough for me . From start to finish Always messaging me making sure I understood everything. His expertise went above beyond. Pavel was assisted by georgi. Who also went beyond in assisting me . Many thanks to both.

Communication was a stop and go

Communication was a stop and go, with floods in the evenings receiving any kind of property in the whole country that were not taken into account any of the features we were looking for. No dialogue possible. Deeds were not visible as according to Bulgarian Properties that would not respect GDPR. Lots of non sense altogether and a very bad client experience.

This company is better then ĺMowlem

This company is better then ĺMowlem. I can guarantee that. Mowlem is very unprofessional. We have tried to do business with them and they constantly lied and provided false information. We actually found out that there are a few lawsuits open against Mowlem for Fraud, and false information. So if you need anything pay monthly houae use this company instead of Mowlem

Very poor communication from Bulgarian…

Very poor communication from Bulgarian Properties agent. Very poor property search, claiming a mistake other than Bulgarian Properties at fault. Yet they did not find it, another realty did, while trying to sell the property. Also there was no mention of a requirement to have a Bulstat number if you desire to re-sell -- which is a greedy Bulgarian government tactic, which is supposedly having nothing to do with property taxes.

Severe structural concerns ignored – property AD81388BG should be delisted

As a serious foreign buyer with both legal and construction experience, I recently inquired about a property listed by BulgarianProperties.com: Ref. AD81388BG – House for sale near Shabla.

Upon receiving detailed images of the ground floor, I immediately identified serious structural issues. A major load-bearing wall had been partially demolished and replaced with a narrow column of perforated masonry bricks, a completely inadequate substitute for any form of vertical load-bearing. There were no reinforced concrete columns, no temporary supports, and clear evidence of amateur construction, likely done without permits or engineering oversight.

In its current condition, this house poses an immediate safety risk and is structurally unsound and uninhabitable. The property has been promoted with no warning of these risks. I wrote a detailed and respectful email outlining these concerns, supported by technical reasoning, but received no response whatsoever. Not even a “thank you” or acknowledgment.

It now seems clear this house was originally intended as a small restaurant or guesthouse, partially self-built by the owners, and abandoned mid-project. It’s severely overpriced, in a remote, undeveloped location with no swimming beach, and requires tens of thousands of euros in structural reconstruction.

If BulgarianProperties intends to be taken seriously by international buyers, they must stop listing dangerous properties without disclosure. This specific object should be delisted until a certified structural assessment is completed.

Thank you for your comment.

We would like to clarify that the property has a valid permission for use. With regard to the construction and its legal status, BULGARIAN PROPERTIES relies on the official documents issued by the competent authorities of Kavarna Municipality.

As a real estate agency, we present information about the property based on the documentation officially issued and provided to us.

We will certainly take your comments into consideration. Should we have a potential buyer interested in the property, we will draw their attention to the possible construction-related concerns you have raised and advise them to engage an independent specialist to carry out the necessary inspection.

This will allow the buyer to make an informed decision and to assess any potential risks associated with the use and condition of the building.

Money not refunded.

I sent money to Danislavia at Bulgarian Properties by mistake. The money was supposed to go to Mowlem Property. I asked Danislavia to refund the money back to me. She replied saying that would. She has not refunded me. She is now totally ignoring my email.

Dear Mrs Lotz, we have checked our records but we don't have any deals with you, including funds received. We also don't have a person called Danislavia or any similar name in our team.

Horrible, garbage, AFK IRL. 0 response, time waste.

Now they try to delete my review reporting it, really shows how bad service this company does. No reply, 0 response, waste your time, and then try to fix their bad reviews. Don't trust them!

Top property company in Bulgaria

So what can I say about Bulgarian Properties. Only the best. I first read the other reviews and hesitated. But still, I worked with them and then I realized one thing. The other reviews must be from German speaking people like myself, they feel like "whining on high niveau". In my experience "Bulgarian Properties" were fantastic.
I have never ever seen a person like Stilian Georgiev. This man answered every question I had and there were a lot and he was still patient. He helped me through the process, showed me a lot of properties. Then I signed a contract, paid the deposit and the seller then changed his mind. He still helped me to get the property and at the end we could not finish the deal. So we found something else and I immediately got back my deposit and they thanked me in a friendly way after the got nothing from me, because we never finished the deal. I mean it is their job, but still I have never experienced so nice and thrustworthy people in central europe. I only can say the best about the company and I will recommend it to everybody else. Just know what you want and communicate it correctly and everything is fine.

BEWARE & AVOID.

As Bulgarian property agencies go they’re probably one of the better ones in terms of their marketing and general operation. Their website is impressive and is updated frequently. Their target market initially was the foreigners (who obviously had the cash) but they now sell to Bulgarians as well. So to the point I know this company from long ago just after they started up in 2003. I bought various properties from them. They know how to make you feel at ease with many of their staff fluent in English. Offices are nice, clean and welcoming. The regional offices are on a franchise basis.
The owner Mihail is super fluent in English and is a ruthless Bulgarian businessman.
The issue I had with BP was that they view foreigners as a cash cow. They will milk you in ANY way possible. Bulgarians get a very different price than the one you’ll get. I’ve been witness to this. I’ve seen behind the curtain with them and have seen what’s really going on. They will drop you the moment they feel you don’t or won’t have anything else to offer. Mihail Chobanov (CEO) as stated is super ruthless and appears on Bulgarian TV regularly. He’s knowledgeable, charming and stares intensely at you when you’re speaking with him. However, he’ll drop you the moment he feels you’ve dried up. They’re up to all types of tricks-You’ve been warned!!!!

Bulgarian Properties and Stilian Georgiev are not trustworthy

We bought a house in Bulgaria. This house was published on the website of Bulgarian Properties. The real estate agent was Stilian Georgiev. The WEB stated that the house was 395 m2 in size. At the stage up to the purchase, I signed a contract with the real estate agent. In it it was stated that I had to pay 3% commission. In April the final contract of sale was signed at the notary. Here the function of the broker was suddenly also that of the translator. I noticed that in the deed some measurements were different (more than 40 m2 deviation). I asked the broker about this and he told me that this was better for the tax. After the notary he told me that I had to pay 360 Lev (180 euros) for the lawyer. At the parting, he urged me to pay the 2450 Euro (3%) in cash to him. I asked him why and he said this was normal. I agreed and paid. Afterwards I spoke to the seller about this and they were shocked because they had paid him 3000 Euro (3% of the asking price) (Either the buyer pays or the seller does). I sent an email to the agent Stilian Georgiev, asking why he charged 2x. I also asked him about the wrong dimensions of the house, because if you have the deed, there is no reason for that. He answered back that the balcony is 40 m2. He further admitted that there was a contract with the seller, which was actually secret. I then asked him if he is an certified Translator. Furthermore, I asked him for Receipts and an already paid official English Translation of the deed. So far no answer.
