VT vs. Gabrovo by kojidae
I moved to Gabrovo in December, and for the most part I couldn't be happier here. It is just the kind of smaller town that I enjoy, with interesting people and a strong sense of community. However, the other day I went to VT for lunch (I had ...
I've got a house between Veliko Tarnovo and Gabrovo in a small town called Slaveykovo, a lovely place to be! I've got a company in Veliko Tarnovo and I hope to make a permanent move within 5 years :) (I am 26 now) If I have to compare the 2 ... Read More

Hello Hassan, sorry for the late reply! The village I live in has a couple of gypsies but they are no problem at all! they sometimes ask for jobs or a sigaret but that's it :) Appartments are quite expensive but most people renting them want at ... Read More
Can anyone tell me about the estate agents Yantra Homes? by Lizzy Loo2
Can anyone tell me about the estate agents Yantra Homes? I have seen a nice property with them and they seem very professional. Also, any comments on Novo Selo. Looks like a nice village.
Yantra Homes is English owned, they are good in what they do but as said by Edislaw they put up high prices! Novo Selo lies in an (in my opinion) ugly area near Ruse (flat/industry) I suggest looking south of Veliko Tarnovo, between VT & Gabrovo. ... Read More

Hello Hassan! That's nice! I don't want to get your hopes down but most houses for sale are not in the shape that the pictures show. Over the last 2 years I viewed about 10 houses, none of them being in the shape agents said it would be. I advise ... Read More

If you live there permanently living at the end of a village would not be a big problem in most of the cases, at least not in the villages around VT thatI am familiar with. Get a fence, save a dog of two's life and learn them bark at strangers ... Read More

Buying property in Bulgaria by candyz9229
Hi everyone I am relocating to Bulgaria to start a business. I have been searching for help and advice and seem to be reading conflicting stories. So my questions are do you need to own a company to buy a property and do you stay clear of estate ...
Since January 2013 all EU citizens can buy a house/plot of (regulated) land and build on it. Before that foreigners could only buy an appartment (or house without any land which does not happen often) If you are looking for a house or want any info ... Read More
