Hi Fey

Welcome to the area.
We are in Ravnets, which is very close by but I have been speaking to a lady called Christine who has a house in your village. I will let her know so that she can contact you direct.
When are you next out there? We are going out for a week at the beginning of July. The house requires some work and we are meeting with the builder to get that sorted. Hopefully next year we will be able to enjoy it.

Hi All, my husband and I are looking at a house in Orlintsi, only on the internet at the moment though, we are trying to arrange time off work to go out to view. I am trying to find out as much as I can about the area and by reading all of your reviews it sounds a nice one. We are retiring early both of us are in our early 50's, could anyone let me know what sort of prices the "council tax" electricity and water bills run out to approx a year, I would be very grateful for any information regarding expenditure for say a month, I know every one has different ways of living but we dont live the high life here and certainly wouldnt want to in Bulgaria.

thanks Pat.

Welcome to the forum Pat. I haven't been to Orlintsi myself but our house is not far from you. It is indeed a beautiful area but then I am biased. I think you will be amazed at the cost of living in BG but I will leave that to the guys and gals that live out there to answer.
There are a lot of Brits that have bought around this area, I don't know how many are permanent though. I would definitly advise you to visit BG and the property before buying. Some people have bought blind and been really lucky, funnily enough we don't hear from the ones that didn't do so well. If you are considering a lifestyle change, check it out first.
We are going out this Friday to meet the builder and get the renovations started.
If you need any help, just ask. Some one will either have the answer or know who does.

Kindest regards

Shirley

Hiya Shirley, thanks for the welcome, I wish that we were going soon, but have just returned from looking at property in turkey last week so have not got many holidays from work left. I wouldnt buy blind, as I think that is taking too much of a risk, you wouldnt give someone here your hard earned money if you didnt know anything about them would you. We will just have to wait a little while and then come out for about 10days and do some research and look around. There are so many nice villages to look at and every time I look at a house and think ooh this is the one for me a better one turns up. We will just have to see what is available when we come. Enjoy yourselves on holiday.

Regards Pat.

Hi Archer,
Glad you had a "good" time, sorry your builder is crap, but Im sure you will get it sorted. I am flying out on Tuesday, going to hire a car and drive round and see what villages take my fancy. I have been looking at Karnobat area, yambol and around about.

Hi Sapper,
Thank you for taking the time to reply to my query, can I ask you which area you live in and how do you find living out there all the time.
