Transporting a car from UK to Vidin area by keitht
Who/how can a Honda CRV get transported safely at a reasonable price from Southern UK to Vidin area please?
It's not just about earning some money it's about doing it right. Insurance etc in case of lose or damage. This is why I am looking for professional car movers not just anybody. Read More
First visit to Bulgaria by Plezier
Well flights are booked and arrive in Sophia in the wee hours of Saturday. Have a few days to explore and look at some properties this is sure one adventure. Pick up the currency in the morning then get everything ready for Fridays departure.
Ahhhh have corrected that after we discovered that the French don't want poor English pensioners. Anyway we have found the house and made an offer which has been accepted so now it's wait for thelegal stuff to be checked through. Read More
Is Veliko Tarnovo right for me? by TerryMMM
I've had a bit of a tour of inland Bulgaria and I've stayed for a week in a village near Sozopol. I've had loads of advice from people who have moved to Bulgaria from Britain and I have met a number of very helpful Bulgarian people. ...
We have just agreed a price on a house in that regions not far from Polski Trambes and Pavlikeni. The place is North West from VT. Not thea rea we were first looking at but this house came up and were offered the chance of viewing and it's ... Read More
New Member with some Observations & Questions by gonadsoflore
New member here although I've perused this forum for a few years. I'm an American who's married to a Bulgarian and spent a bunch of time in Sofia, and within a few years would like to move there. A few observations I've picked up ...
"3) Apartments and housing. Do your research. Never purchase or sign from abroad. Get there and inspect the property. If you can, pay cash and buy outright when purchasing. Barter. You'll get a far better deal as the ability to buy upfront ... Read More
ripped off by Bulgarian " friends " by susan vinitsa
We have had our apartment for ten years in Vinitsa. We bought it through an estate agent who had already bought the apartment next to ours to live in. She offered to pay all our bills as it would be easier for us being so far away. We thought this ...
LOL............. know a couple that expressed interest in a house for sale in the village. Bulgarian owner had it up for 2,000 and had not used it in years in fact the windows have bene left open for years. As soon as he found out English had moved ... Read More
10k for a house, really? + questions by stoney2016
Ok, so I've found a good management company to set up a company, register my car, open accounts etc which I plan to do after summer when I come over. Also later this year I plan to view some houses with the view of buying. Whilst I dont plan to ...
There are quite a few of these pay monthly sellers on the web and my advice is tread carefully. I came over in June to view some offered this way with one such vendor and to say that the quality was poor is putting it mildly and the prices well ... Read More

We have sorted removals now. Seems everyone has few posessions as everybody but us seem to be able to fit it in/on a 3.5 ton van. No way would ours fit in one unless it was a tardis. We have a 7.5 tonner coming and are busy trying to sort stuff out ... Read More

Well we have a bit more stuff than a few boxes. Heck I have about a dozen boxes of books packed. They have been packed since last year when the house sale fell through. It certainly won't fit ina 3.5t van and would need a bit larger like a 7.5 ... Read More

Well have tried repeatedly to contact one of these who have an office in London and to say they are unhelpful is rather an understatement. As a family we are looking to ship not one but THREE cars and they just do not seem to want to know. BG ... Read More
Bed and Breakfast, will they come? by davidsoup
Hi, We're thinking of moving to Bulgaria to live the countryside life but only if we can establish a little B&B or lodge. Something small geared towards outside tourism. However, we're lacking the "European" point of view. ...
Funny thing is that I was watching a youtube video about a britiish couple who have set up just such a place which is doing quite well. Even getting Bulgarians staying there now. As with most things do it right and advertise it properly and people ... Read More
