		<description><![CDATA[There are several costs involved in the actual Bulgarian property transfer: stamp duty, the notary fee and registration tax.

Stamp Duty

Stamp duty, or the so-called transfer tax, is paid by the buyer and goes to the local municipality where the property is situated. The amount of the tax is 2 per cent on either the tax evaluation or the purchase price, whichever is the higher. The transfer tax is either paid to the notary or paid by bank transfer to the municipality, and the bank document is presented to the notary.There are also bank charges for the transfer, which depend on the amount transferred and the bank charges of the particular bank.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The procedure for buying a property in Bulgaria is different from the procedure in the UK. This is so, not only because the law and the legal system as a whole are different, but also because of the different habits and traditions of the country. There are some similarities, of course, but in general it is best to understand the specifics and the procedure, rather than try to compare it and make conclusions on the basis of what you know from the UK property buying process.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You may be considering adding your children as co-owners of your property in Bulgaria at the time of purchase, to save inheritance tax when you die. On your death you would only own, say, one-fifth of the property rather than one half, and only that part will be taxable. This only works sensibly if they are over 18. Of course there are drawbacks.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In these days of low interest rates, many more people take out a mortgage in order to buy a property abroad. If the property is viewed simply as an investment, a mortgage allows you to increase your benefit from the capital growth of property by leveraging the property investment. If you buy a house for €200,000 and it increases in value by €50,000, it has yielded a 25 per cent return on your investment. If you had only put in €50,000 of your own money and borrowed the other €150,000, then the increase in value represents a return of 100 percent on your investment. As long as the rate of increase in the value of the property is more than the mortgage rate or costs, you have gained.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Many people buy property because they want to live abroad. Some wish to escape the stresses of Britain, others to gain further skills abroad and perhaps start a business, and others to retire or take a year or two out. It is remarkable how many foreigners arrive in Bulgaria with one-year contracts and end up staying and buying a home, and often getting married or integrating into the local community.]]></description>
