I am going over and would like to open a bank account as I am buying an apartment to rent. Does anyone know what is the best bank to do this with or are they much of a muchness like here in thE UK.
Also if anyone has any insurance information for homes apartments that would be useful. Thankyou Stuart
I'd suggest looking at the Bulgarian Banks' websites for comparisons.
Some offer internet banking (most, only if you are literate in Bulgarian).
Bulgarian banks tend to charge for nearly all transactions, unlike the UK banks, so try to 'suss out' their tariffs on websites.
A list of Bulgarian banks can be found HERE.
Many banks, e.g. Allianz, will offer property and other insurances.
Thanks Baldur, that is very helpful, much appreciated. Stuart
I use the raiffeisen bank for all my bulgarian transations, they are very good with english people etc...
you also get a visa electron or maestro debit card
there website is : http://www.rbb.bg
and i also have a account with : http://www.bulbank.bg that is puurely for savings realy.
rbb is the best for day to day transations tc..
hope you find this useful.

Thanks Brad, that is good. How many properties do you have in Bulgaria? Do you expect to sell in a few yerars time for double money or what is your game plan if you dont mind me asking. Stuart
I currently have one property at mo,
My buisness partiner is viewing a b and b today, o may be putting offer in, in the next few days.
Bulgarian banks, do charge for day-to-day transations, unlike UK.
i highly reccommend raiffeisen bank, i have a standard current account with them.
Looking into buying a few more in SB, before prices rise!
i am very pleased with my summer dreams apartments.
