🔹 Legal Due Diligence
Legal due diligence is a critical step that must not be overlooked. We conduct detailed examination of ownership history, title continuity, existing encumbrances, mortgages, liens, court claims and regulatory compliance. Our review includes verification of cadastral data, construction permits (where applicable), zoning status and compliance with urban planning regulations.
🔹 Methods of Acquiring Real Estate in Bulgaria
Property in Bulgaria may be acquired through direct purchase, company acquisition, inheritance, donation or other legal mechanisms. Foreign individuals and investors may also acquire property under specific legal conditions. We advise clients on the most appropriate acquisition structure depending on the type of property, tax implications and long-term objectives.
🔹 Preliminary Agreement (Pre-Contract)
The preliminary contract defines the rights and obligations of the parties prior to final transfer. Improper drafting may expose buyers to financial risk. We review and draft preliminary agreements to ensure proper clauses regarding payment structure, deadlines, penalties, withdrawal conditions and liability.

We provide legal review of brokerage agreements, reservation contracts and ensure that client interests remain legally protected during mediated transactions.

We provide representation before notaries, draft final notarial deeds and supervise payment mechanisms, including escrow arrangements when necessary.
