Hi Dotty

I wouldn't be put off by these horror stories; when you think of how many tens of thousands of people have bought in Bulgaria then this is a very very tiny percentage of people. Things have also improved significantly over the last few years.

The best thing is to do your research - you can never do enough - especially look for independent advice!

Rachel has covered the rough principles of purchasing off plan or existing property. Don't forget to get yourself an independent lawyer when buying - someone who will act in your interests alone.

The normal practice legally when purchasing is to put the full price in the deeds if that is what you are asking?

Naturally there are rules and regs for renovations as there are in any country and again you should take professional independent advice about these.

Any ideas what you might be looking for or what area you might prefer?

Please do ask as many questions as you need.

All the best
Jain and Chris
