Interest in properties situated less than an hour away from Sofia city also rises, brokers say. These estates are cheaper, less than 370 euro a sq m.
Among the most expensive towns in Sofia region is Samokov, due to its proximity to Borovetz ski resort. Koprivshtitza offers newly built houses in the traditional architectural style. Dolna Banya is another place attracting investors' interest. As a spa resort near Borovetz, it offers good opportunities for tourism.
Property prices in the regions mentioned vary from 300 to 700 euro a sq m, but brokers say that these cheap offers will not hold on for long and prices will inevitably rise. This makes buying an estate near Sofia in 2006 a really good investment, Banker newspaper reported.
