Cost of moving by Jules999

Hi It's been quite some years since we purchased a property in Bulgaria & we've never sold one. Could somebody advise what the current costs involved to buy are.......as well as the costs involved in selling, via an agent. Any recommendations ...

@Jules999 Oh super cool, well done for buying along time ago. Most people here seem very pessimistic. I think a local agent could do well for you as long as your clear on what price would be good for you (min price and stick to it). Read More

@gwynj Thanks this is good advice. We already have a house on the black sea, in a resort town (10 mins walk to the beach and bars and restaurants etc). But I fancy getting a small place by a lake or the danube as well. Read More

International driver's license alongside my Florida license by PepitoFiesta

Hello Bulgaria! I am a US citizen living in Bulgaria with a Bulgarian residency card. I have a Florida driver's license but I do not want to exchange it for a Bulgarian license. I read somewhere that I can get an international driver's license ...

@JimJ I guess they are talking about "grey areas" where technically you might be treated as resident in both countries.I have two permanent residence visas and now live in a third country. It's a bit of a mind field in the grey zone. Read More
