An analysis of the Bulgarian real estate market conducted by the Open4business portal showed that the growth in housing prices in Bulgaria has slowed, but foreign demand remains significant.
The pace of housing price growth in Bulgaria began to slow after a very strong surge throughout 2025, although the market itself remains in a growth phase. According to data from the National Statistical Institute of Bulgaria (NSI), housing prices rose by 15.1% year-over-year in the first quarter of 2025, by 15.5% in the second quarter, and by 15.4% in the third quarter, indicating that the rate of price increases remains high but is no longer accelerating.
An additional factor driving growth in 2025 was the expectation of Bulgaria’s transition to the euro on January 1, 2026. As early as the end of 2025, Bulgarian media and market participants explicitly noted that some buyers were expediting their decisions specifically in anticipation of the currency change, which spurred activity in the housing market.
Foreigners continue to play a significant role in the Bulgarian real estate market, particularly in resort and coastal locations. However, it is important to note that complete official Bulgarian government statistics on homebuyers by citizenship for 2025–2026 are not publicly available. The most frequently cited recent breakdown of foreign demand is based on data from the Bulgarian Real Estate Association and market surveys. According to these estimates, in 2024–2025, the most active foreign buyers included citizens of the United Kingdom, Germany, Greece, Israel, Romania, Turkey, Italy, Russia, Ukraine, and Poland.
According to the same market data, Ukrainians rank among the top 10 foreign homebuyers in Bulgaria. Their demand is driven both by relocation due to the war and by investment interest, primarily in properties on the Black Sea coast and in tourist regions. Among the most sought-after destinations are Varna, Burgas, Nessebar, as well as the mountain resorts of Bansko and Pamporovo.
The market continues to be supported by a price base that is relatively low by EU standards. Even after the recent growth, Bulgaria remains one of the most affordable housing markets in the European Union, which continues to attract foreign capital and sustain demand for apartments both for personal use and for rental purposes.
In the near term, the most likely scenario appears to be a further slowdown in price growth rather than a sharp decline. While the market grew at double-digit rates in 2025, a transition to moderate growth—roughly in the range of 5–7% per year—seems more realistic for 2026. This forecast is based on the already noticeable slowdown in growth rates, the high-base effect, and the fact that the euro has already been introduced and a significant portion of speculative demand was likely realized in advance.
Posting a hyperlink to another media outlet’s publication does not in itself imply dissemination of all information or automatic liability for disseminating false information, the Supreme Court notes.
“Material made public by placing a hyperlink to another media outlet’s publication and a brief summary thereof does not imply automatic liability for the entire content of the original source,” reads a statement on the Supreme Court’s website on Friday, citing the opinion of the panel of judges of the Cassation Commercial Court within the Supreme Court (CCC of the Supreme Court).
According to the Court, the proper defendants in cases concerning the protection of business reputation involving the dissemination of information on the Internet are the author of the material and the owner of the website on which the material is posted.
“It is the plaintiff who must determine the proper circle of defendants, taking into account the legal nature of the disputed legal relationship and the nature of the dissemination of information,” the statement notes.
The Court explains that a limited liability company (LLC) filed a lawsuit against another company regarding the protection of business reputation.
“The lawsuit was based on the fact that the defendant’s website featured a summary of a journalistic investigation and a hyperlink to a publication released by another media outlet, which, in the plaintiff’s opinion, led to the dissemination of false information,” the Court clarifies regarding the essence of the case considered by the Grand Chamber of the Supreme Court of Ukraine.
The Commercial Court, in a decision upheld by the ruling of the Commercial Court of Appeal, granted the claim.
“The courts concluded that the defendant had disseminated information belonging to the plaintiff, that the information was inaccurate, and that it had damaged the plaintiff’s business reputation. Disagreeing with these decisions, the defendant LLC filed a cassation appeal,” the Supreme Court notes.
In reviewing the case, the Grand Chamber of the Supreme Court noted that the mere fact of posting a hyperlink does not imply assuming responsibility for the full content of a third party’s publication.
“The Supreme Court noted that a hyperlink is a technical means of referring to another resource and is not equivalent to the independent dissemination of the entire content of such a resource. Liability is possible only to the extent that the information was directly reproduced or presented by the defendant as its own message,” the statement reads.
In addition, the Grand Chamber of the Supreme Court emphasized the need to distinguish between factual statements and evaluative judgments, as well as to determine whether the plaintiff has proven the inaccuracy of the specific information disseminated by the defendant.
The Supreme Court also emphasized the importance of determining the actual scope of information dissemination by a specific defendant and not holding them liable for the entire content of a third party’s material solely because of the presence of a hyperlink.
“The Grand Chamber of the Supreme Court of Ukraine noted that the proper defendants in cases involving the dissemination of information on the internet are the author of the material and the owner of the website on which it is posted. If the author is known, it is he who must be involved in the case,” the Court stated.
Based on the results of the cassation review, the Grand Chamber of the Supreme Court concluded that the findings of the lower courts regarding the defendant’s liability and the completeness of establishing the legal elements of the offense were premature.
