Off plan survival guide
I am writing this further to a recent comment on another post related to buying process in Bulgaria.
In fact the Off Plan Survival Guide was written some time ago but I would like to point your attention to it as it is a good starting point for investment in Bulgaria.
In any case the first two points from it are very important:
1. Use a lawyer! This is the most important step. Do not use the lawyer recommended by the estate agent. Search on the internet for lawyers or ask a friend but do not even think of buying property without a lawyer.
2. Do not pay any reservation fee, deposits or other advanced payments without making sure that you will get a full refund in case that for whatever reason you decide later on not to buy. It is good also any such documents to be reviewed by a lawyer before you commit.

We have recently launched this site which is all about the first time investor in Bulgaria. It is not a sales pitch nor is it misleading. This site simply informs potential buyers of what they should be asking and what to look out for when buying in Bulgaria.
I hope this is of interest and look forward to your comments.
Good luck with the site! Hope that it will help also the buyers in their dilemmas.
