Buyer's guide

Payment of taxes and other costs of ownership


Each year, you should count with 3 costs for your apartment in Santa Marina:

1) Every physical and legal person in Bulgaria owes two kinds of communal taxes when owning a property in Bulgaria: tax on real estate properties (i.e. buildings) and a fee for waste disposal. The value of the communal taxes for Santa Marina apartments for this year varies between BGN 70 and 400 (EUR 40 – 200).

2) The annual fee for the maintenance of the holiday village is set in your Contract for the Maintenance and Management of the Santa Marina Complex. The concrete costs depend on the size of your apartment. Therefore, the fee varies between EUR 600 and 1,500 per annum.

3) Utility bills in Bulgaria are not high. Given the current level of utility prices and assuming normal consumption of electricity, water, telephone, Internet, cable TV, etc. the total cost of utility bills will amount to about EUR 450 – 500 per apartment per annum.
