Rental Opportunities

  In addition to the expected steady increase in real estate prices on the Bulgarian sea coast, you could benefit financially from your property by renting it out to tourists during the tourist season. Currently the tourist season in Sunny Beach stretches for half a year from May to October. However, it is expected to become even longer. Sunny Beach is only 25 kilometres from the international airport of the city of Bourgas, which stays open year round. In addition, the airport is expected to receive a number of low-cost airline carriers starting in 2007 lowering the cost of travel to Sunny Beach and attracting more tourists. Also, the construction of golf courses as well as spa and health centers nearby will attract tourists outside the standard beach season. Therefore, one can expect about 6% return on investment every year only from renting the apartment. Adding the 10% and higher annual increase in real estate prices produces a healthy annual return in the double digits.
