Sofia gated complexes: remaining popular
The Sofia apartments, which are placed in the gated complexes, come with prices that are ten to fifteen per cent higher than the regular apartments, but still remain very popular and are preferred by the property buyers who can afford them. This is so, because the gated complexes in Sofia count on the quality and this is not only valid about the level of construction. The buyers are interested in the security they will get and the good atmosphere, as well as the communication with people with the same social status, even if they have to pay more for property management. Last, but not least, the properties in the gated communities keep their price high and will always be considered prestige.
The potential property buyers in Sofia are looking for two-bedroom apartments in the southern parts of Sofia, in complexes with restricted access and number of facilities, including maintenance. Bulgarians seem to have better idea what they are looking for and besides the location, they are now paying attention on the surrounding area and the neighbors as well. Besides the security and the common parts maintenance, these Sofia apartments’ buyers are also paying attention to the landscaped courtyard, the available parking areas and the facilities which often include food-shop, fitness hall, pharmacy and even kindergarten. As a whole, the tendency that the Sofia market investors follow is for apartment buildings with higher quality of the construction and good number of extras.
