About Bansko

The town of Bansko, 9000 inhabitants, in the foothills of the Pirin Mountains became famous among ski fans from Western Europe and next door Greece, Macedonia, Serbia for their long ski runs and pristine alpine scenery. The longest run in Bulgaria, 16km is found here and with its 65km of pistes on high altitude between 1635m, where the gondola lift takes skiers, and 2560m (Todorka Peak) snow is never an issue here. Ski property prices are trending higher at the beginning of every winter season.

Soon the town will boast one of the best designed golf courses in the country and along with the Summer Jazz Festival it will increase occupancy and further improve rental income for owners-investors.

The Pirin mountains are the second highest and one of the most beautiful Bulgarian mountains - it is a natural preserve included in the World Natural Heritage list. The clean mountain air, the hot thermal waters in the swimming pools and the specialized facilities provide excellent year-round conditions for recreation and sports.

Property and Finances

18 November 2009

The National Real Estate Association are reporting positive property signals from the ski resorts in Bulgaria. With the falls in prices during the last year, interest is now increasing 'significantly', says the NREA. Both local and foreign investors have expressed interest during the last month as prices have dropped, making property in the Bulgarian ski resorts a value-for-money price. The biggest fall in prices occurred in Bansko, the most popular ski resort, where prices went down by some 50% in the global downturn. Apartments in the town are now selling from 300 euros sq.m., unheard of in the last few years.  The NREA added that they expected price falls to slow significantly as there is less property coming onto the market.

The first Bulgarian banks started cutting interest rates in September and others are following suit. UniCredit Bulbank has announced a lowering of interest rates, following in the footsteps of MKB Unionbank and Postbank. Bulbank are offering mortgages at 6.58%, a significant amount below current rates.

At the recent Balrec conference, figures released showed that construction fell by 20% during the month of September, with indications that construction companies will turn round during 2011. Constructors were urged to cut back their margins from the ridiculous 150% at the height of the boom years, to a more realistic and sustainable profit of 10%.

Foreign Visitors in Bulgaria have increased by 18.2%

For the period January - September 2008 the number of foreign visitors in Bulgaria has increased by 18.2%. The number of EU nationals has increased by 15.8%. The top five countries are Romania 850 000, Greece 590 000, Germany 540 000, UK 330000 and Russia 272 000 people.
