Investment Without Borders: Where Capital Remains Alive
The real estate market in Bulgaria has changed faster than many expected. Once a symbol of security, today a garage in a remote neighborhood costs as much as an entire apartment a decade ago. In this context, the question is not whether to invest, but how to preserve the value of our money and build a stable future - beyond geographical and psychological boundaries.
At the beginning of 2026, Bulgaria will switch to payments in euros. This is not a hypothesis. This is a reality. And with it comes what the market has been feeling as tension for months – property prices are rising, and assets that seemed affordable yesterday are now beyond the reach of the average investor.
In the last 12 months alone, according to data from the National Statistical Institute, the average price per square meter in Sofia has increased by 13.8%, and in some cities – such as Plovdiv, Burgas, and Veliko Tarnovo – the pace even surpasses the capital. Expectations published by the Ministry of Finance and the Bulgarian National Bank predict a further increase of at least 15% within the next year, as a result of European integration, reduced interest rates, and increased liquidity.
What does this mean in practice? That 100,000 euros – a sum that until recently secured a small apartment for investment – is no longer enough for more than two underground parking spaces in a capital city district of the third ring. Or for garages on the outskirts of the city. This is the painful truth. And it requires a new logic of action.
Unfavorable yield in Bulgaria - the illusion of "passive income"
The average annual yield from renting out a residential property in Sofia as of June 2025 varies between 2.8% and 4.5% gross, before taxes and expenses for maintenance, management, repairs, unpaid rent, and depreciation. After deducting all expenses, the net yield often falls below 3%. This is lower than inflation and results in a real loss of value over time. And if we add the lack of liquidity and the long time for resale, it becomes clear: the housing market in Bulgaria is not always a wise investment – especially with saturation and upcoming market rearrangements.
The solution? Diversification and entering international markets with high returns and a stable outlook.
AvaSOLIS Real Estate - a Bulgarian agency with international reach - now offers selected investment opportunities in key locations such as Bali, Thailand, Cyprus, Dubai, Qatar, Oman and Spain (Marbella)Each of these markets is chosen not on the basis of emotion, but on the basis of economic stability, tourism growth, tax breaks, the possibility of renting through management companies, and stable returns.
Our client invested in an off-plan property in Bali, paying only 35% of the value – approximately €65,000. The property was in a boutique complex by a reputable builder with the possibility of resale before completion. After 11 months, through a tripartite agreement between him, the investor, and a new buyer, the rights to the property were transferred – with a realized net profit of 40%. Without paying the full amount. Without waiting years. Without managing it himself. These types of deals are not an exception. They are a strategic opportunity for people who think with vision and act with a partner by their side.
What are the success factors in these markets?
Government policy in support of foreign investments. Qatar, for example, plans over 40 billion dollars in investments in tourism, infrastructure, and cultural sites by 2030.
Cryptocurrency payments in next-generation projects - provides additional flexibility and anonymity.
Full transparency and the possibility of fixed-return contracts through managing operators.
Locations with a constantly growing tourist flow and lack of seasonality (Bali, Thailand, Dubai).
AvaSOLIS Real Estate: where investments have no limits.
In a world where everything is globalizing, real estate remains 'immovable' only for those who don't see beyond their neighborhood sign.
We at AvaSOLIS Real Estate believe that property is capital, and capital needs a strategy. That's why we don't just work on the ground. We work with a vision – in Bulgaria and far beyond it.
Today, when borders are blurred and investment opportunities are scattered across the globe, our clients need a trusted partner who thinks big, acts precisely, and does not compromise on detail.
Where do we operate? AvaSOLIS operates not only in Bulgaria, but also in Greece, Cyprus, Spain (Marbella), Bali, Dubai, Thailand, Qatar, and Oman. Thanks to an established network of trusted international partners, we offer access to selected high-value properties – from luxury villas and vacation homes to profitable investment assets.
We are not just an agency. We are an ally of capital. We work with a limited number of clients, but with unlimited responsibility towards them. Each of our projects is personal - because we have a principle: quality over quantity.
Conclusion - responsibility towards capital. In a time of variable inflation, unclear banking policies, and expected changes in pricing across the country, the question is not whether to invest. The question is where.
The choice - as always - is in your hands. But the information - is already on your side.
Whether to stick to old habits and keep our money in a low-yield rental apartment, or to take the bold step towards global markets - this is the choice that divides investors today.
Capital loves movement. It does not tolerate stagnation and fear. When we start thinking like citizens of the world, we begin to see opportunities where others bet on the comfort of the familiar. True freedom is not in square meters, but in the way we manage the value of our work and life.
