Quick question- How long to complete

is this question related to my house?

and if so I haven't even started working on it, it's a big mass and requires a lot of expenses and time.

No, just a general question. I thought it went into a general section. It’s just that I would want to be in a property to start work on it by summer, as it would be slower in the cold months.

when did you purchase it? and are you in the property working on it or still as my situation?

@josephsaad44

No, we haven’t found one yet. We are planning a visit soon and are working out what areas suit us in regard to climate and price too.

Don’t want to rush into anything but do feel we need to get out of UK asap.

@jeanmandredeix

I do understand your frustrations, it is like my situation ASAP.

we are only 2% Christians and we are the minority.

In January it takes longer - the cadasters are closed for updating records.  Apart from that, it depends on how many owners the property currently has and whether they all agree to the sale - and are even traceable.

You need EVERYTHING to be checked and double-checked so don't cut any corners, however impatient you might be - and however many other "prospective buyers" are supposedly ready to put their cash on the table.  If anything gets screwed up - by the notary, lawyer or broker - it'll be YOU who gets to pay to have it fixed, if it can be fixed..

Sounds similar to France. Is it because all the family have to agree to the sale? We didn’t have a bad experience there, but knew that if one family member would not sign then you were stuffed.

It's exactly the same as in France 😉

The problem is that if one of the primary heirs has died, their portion may have passed to their heirs without them even knowing that they'd inherited something....it can get very silly very quickly!  We're currently wading our way through a rather ridiculous situation, caused primarily by the negligence of two, supposedly expert, lawyers.  Unfortunately, there's no comeback for professional negligence/incompetence in Bulgaria, so the client just has to suck it up - and fork out for the pleasure.. 💩
