Welcome to my site.
Please let me introduce myself, my name is Mark Wright and for more than eight years now I have been in the real estate business, mainly within the UK, where I became an office manager with a leading estate agency group. After moving to Bookavets near Veliko Tarnovo, Bulgaria in March 2007 I did not work for several months, then for 10 months I worked for one of the largest real estate agencies in Veliko Tarnovo, helping train the English speaking Bulgarian agents, who deal with the International clients.
I am now working independantly locating properties for buyers, who are looking to relocate around Veliko Tarnovo, Resen, Hotnitsa areas. Working on their behalf, I can access far more properties and select only ones suitable to my clients thus cutting down time spent looking at non suitable abodes.
I live here with my wife Sally, and son Shane, (our daughter Teri, lives in Swindon Wiltshire.) in a large village called Resen, just north of Veliko Tarnovo. We enjoy a stress free lifestyle that we could only imagine whilst living in the UK., long hot sunny summers and cold snowy winters.
There are quite a few Brit’s within a few kilometers of us, but mostly we talk to our Bulgarian neighbours, slowly, as we do not speak fluent Bulgarian yet! The local people are very friendly and will often pass you small gifts like fruit and Rakia (local home made whiskey) We for our part return their friendship with home made cakes etc.
Our British friends are great, we meet up quite often to help each other with new products found, or general information we have gathered. Sometimes just for a coffee or beer!
I have found that many British come here looking to buy property, but do not know where to start. I have a few key questions that I like to ask, this gives me a real insight to what they are looking to achieve. As I have been through the process and now know the pitfalls, hopefully I can save others the heartache and stress of searching for the right property.
I can help with all the details required in buying property here, from setting up bank accounts to opening your company, this is required when you buy a house with land. I can source any kind, from land/apartment/house/office even hotels.
Let me know how I can help you.
If you have any questions about my service I can provide you with names and email address's of previous clients who would be happy to tell you more about me and the level of service provided.
Please read all the "post's" on my blog, at the bottom of each page you can click a button for "older post's" this just means "go to the next page". You should find a lot of useful information contained here. If you feel the need for anything else please let me know and I will be happy to oblige.
Happy New Year to you all. Thank you to everyone who has sent us the same wishes for this year.
I am slowly getting back into the swing of work again after a quiet December, well quiet work wise. We drove over to the UK and stayed for 10 days and then drove back, just in time for Christmas here. We are very grateful for the help and assistance of our good friends who look after our animals and keep an eye on the house whilst we are away.
Christmas was quiet for us, this year was the first time without our children or family around us, that is one reason we had an early xmas day when in the UK, with both Sally's family and my own.
So, back to this year, it is now time to go ad get your raod tax paid for. This year they are different, they are going to write the reg number on the sticker as some people have been changing them from car to car in the past. Your current road tax is valid until the end of the month, but don't forget it.
It is also time to start thinking about your year end accounts, they must be submitted by March, I can arrange help for anyone who requires it, the cost has not been confirmed as yet, the results are also required to be listed on the commercial register.
This year will be interesting to see how many people have not re-registered thier company, some think they have done it, but I have heard reports of some issues that will come back to haunt some people.
Remember to keep your headlights on and check your winter tyres, drive safely.
I am now getting more enquiries from the UK from people who are thinking of relocating to Bulgaria, the rise in VAT and the way the UK is going is driving people abroad.
