SPECIAL OFFER
"Gorna" means "high" in Bulgarian. The village of Gorna Vasilitsa lives up to its name. Situated high on the mountainside above the town of Kostenets, the village commands a stunning view over the valley below and Bulgaria's highest peaks, the Rila Mountains, on the opposite side.
Gorna Vasilitsa is a sleepy hamlet. There are no shops or bars, and the loudest sounds you're likely to hear are birdsong and crickets. Only 7km away, however, is Kostenets, a significant town, reached by a very fast, wide road down the mountain, where you can find anything you want. At the foot of the mountain, only 5km distant, is a large supermarket. Another road out of the village winds its way tortuously down 5km to the famous resort of Momin Prohod, Bulgaria's second most important health spa. It has a sanatorium for adults and a specialised children's sanatorium. Momin Prohod and Kostenets are on the railway line between Sofia and Plovdiv, so the apartments can be reached easily without a car.
Gorna Vasilitsa is about an hour's drive from Sofia airport by the motorway. In the coming years a new motorway spur is planned to run nearby over the mountain to Borovets, 33km away, cutting the travel time considerably. The village is also only 8km from the planned major golf course at Dolna Banya, and 15km from the village of Kostenets on the other side of the valley, where there are ski pistes and lifts.
Architectural plans for 12 new 1-bedroom apartments (sleeping 4), with breathtaking views of the valley and mountains are being given away free with this plot of land. The plans are complete, except for the one plan showing the location of the connections for the electricity, water and sewerage.
Panoramic windows and deck/balcony. These apartments will be very unusual, in that their design emphasises spacious living, thus making them suitable for both permanent and holiday use.
With the new upsurge in popularity for Bulgaria as a holiday destination, and the tremendous sudden increase in demand for mountain accommodation, and especially spa health treatment, these apartments should offer phenomenal rental potential.

Bulgarian National Bank to restrict mortgage loans as of 2021, 23/09/2021
The Bulgarian National Bank has taken a decision to restrict mortgage lending. The Board of Directors has decided to increase the capital buffer for banks' risk loans from 0.5% to 1% from 2021. The measure aims to ensure that vaults have sufficient reserves to cover losses on non-performing loans. As a rule, the buffer is increased when it is necessary to "cool" a large increase in credit.

Bulgarians become the biggest investors in real estate properties in their homeland, 01/09/2021
The Covid-19 crisis has affected all business spheres. However, according to data of Bulgarian real estate agents, demand and sales of housing properties have gone up, especially in the big cities. In their view, this is due to several reasons, but the latest increase in property sales is mainly due to the return of confidence towards Bulgaria’s property market. Investors are showing serious interest in depreciated holiday properties sold predominantly by foreign nationals who are rushing to sell their properties in Bulgaria even at prices below the market prices. This is so, because these people find it difficult to travel during the coronavirus pandemic. The main purchasers of real estate properties in Bulgaria are Bulgarian citizens living in Bulgaria or abroad who invest their savings in properties, in order to rent them or spend their summer vacation in them.
