Thanks for your support banjo. I am pleased it is all sorted out for now. Good luck with your residency cards.

All the best from Sozopol

The issues have been solved for now. The land owner has came to a compromise. We will now pay by the size of apartment in a kind of square meter arrangement. Large apartments over 150m2 will pay 4000 lv Medium from 100m2 to 150m2 will pay 3000lv and small apartments up to 100m2 will pay 2000lv. All ...

Thanks for the reality check banjo. Was at the sea park in Burgas yesterday and it is so green and beautiful which made me think again about Spain. It would be very difficult to replicate what we have here in the Burgas area or indeed Bulgaria in general. I think i would get bored with Spain very fa...

Yes. Have been coming to Bulgaria for 13 years now and some things are slightly better but in general i think nothing much has changed or certainly not at the pace it should have done considering Bulgaria is part of the EU now. Time to look at Spain i think if i can sell the apartment here in Sozopo...

We are in a really bad position now as the land owner has really done his homework. The condominium act only covers the buildings and not the land they are built on.

I did not manage to have a meeting at the weekend as there was not enough owners here.The situation has developed and one owner that refused to pay 3000 lv but offered to per per square meter(which was declined) has been told they can not use the pool or park their car here. A mafia type situation i...

Hi Banjo It gets more complicated as he wants the 3000 leva per family only for his land maintenance in one lump sum. There are three buildings and each building has its own arrangements for building maintenance own bank account, own water and electric meters etc. In the past building and land maint...

Hi Banjo From the 1st of May till the end of December of this year he wants to charge 3000 leva extra ie not including building maintenance per family (33,000 leva in total) Up till now he has not stated how much it will be next year At a guess it will be a similar amount next year as there are more...

Hi Banjo Thank you for your reply. There are many improvements need doing as the previous land owner had no interest or money for that matter to maintain the land,pool lighting, fencing etc. We are pleased in general that the new owner is acting positively in replacing these things but the way he is...
