At the backdrop of the pandemic, more and more Bulgarians have been leaving the big cities in order to settle in calmer and healthier places. The mountain resort of Bansko is one of the places, where growing demand for real estate has been reported.

According to the statistics of real estate agencies, people are mostly looking for apartments in residential complexes, with a low maintenance fee, but with additional extras and close to the lift. The reason for this is that the resort offers various opportunities close to nature. It is suitable for young families with children and lovers of mountain sports.

Most buyers are Bulgarians, but there are also foreigners, including Serbs, citizens of North Macedonia, Romanians, British, and also citizens of Israel. As a result of the rising demand, real estate agents point out that prices have marked a significant rise. One of the reasons is that demand greatly exceeds supply.
