Posted by Cassi on December 27th, 2020

The great thing about staying in London is that it really is a city that never ever sleeps. With terrific home entertainment, from musicals to plays, it's a place where you will seldom be short of things to do.

In the evenings, you'll discover that England's capital city is a fantastic location to enjoy the night life, with top-notch dining establishments, bars and clubs.

Be sure that you get out and check out a few of the remainder of the nation too however. There are lots of benefits in spending quality time away from the city, consisting of getting to see a bit more of the genuine England.

My own home county, Hampshire, has plenty on offer. You can reach the the most southerly part of the county in less than 90 minutes by vehicle (or train from London Waterloo) and you'll discover that the brief journey is well worth it.

Hampshire consists of among the UK's newest National Parks, the New Forest. It likewise has a large number of terrific unaffected English towns, complete with thatched homes, country bars and village greens. In numerous ways, this part of the country reflects lots of visitors concepts of what England need to resemble.

If you do not leave London and its instant surroundings then this may well be a part of the nation that you'll miss out on.

Any conversation of the happiness of a check out to Hampshire would be incomplete without making reference of Winchester. Winchester, the ancient capital of England, can be reached in less than an hour by London and has some fantastic transport links.

It's also loaded in history - this is the place where Jane Austen lived during the final years of her life. It likewise boasts a Norman Cathedral, the website of William the Conqueror's Castle and its renowned links to King Arthur.

Winchester is a truly magical location and is part of a wonderful part of the country - be sure not to miss it.

In Britain, regardless of striving all my life - I lived in a little terraced Bungalow in among the poorest locations of Britain and there was no hope of ever managing to purchase a Detached Property in Britain. For that reason, I looked to see if I might discover a home elsewhere in the world with the little savings I had. I discovered property in Bulgaria to be considerably less expensive than Britain - where else could you purchase a Detached House with 2 acres of land for just ₤ 2,000?

Being driven round by the Bulgarian Estate Agents to take a look at properties, I was impressed at the appeal of the Bulgarian Countryside - the Sun Flower Fields, the Traditional Scenes we stumbled upon of Villagers cleaning their clothing in the Local Stream, the Donkeys and Carts carrying people around their villages, women collecting in their yards around a large pot on open fires maintaining fruit and vegetables for the coming winter season. The Bulgarian Countryside contrasted noticeably with the larger Towns and Cities in Bulgaria - which were far more modernised and westernised.

I was the first English Woman to ever buy a property in this little Village in the Bourgas Region of Bulgaria. It looked like I was in paradise, out of the rat-race in Britain, I might leave the congestion, the stress all behind me. Nevertheless, my joy relied on tears on numerous occasions.

Bulgaria is a very fascinating culture and has an interesting history. Some parts are run down, other parts are gorgeous. Generally speaking the Spring, Summer and Autumn bring great warm weather.The winter seasons can end up being really cold but they are relatively brief winters.

I found most of the people there truthful and credible, but like any country it has its rogues. The rogues are not easy to identify and sound really expert and convincing, they have wonderful looking websites and automobiles, but they target unwary individuals from Britain. Here are a few of the issues I experienced, which I hope anyone buying home in Bulgaria can ideally prevent:

1). Lawyers and Conveyancing:

In Bulgaria there is typically only one Solicitor who acts upon behalf of both the Seller and the Buyer; whereas in Britain the Seller and Buyer tend to have their own separate Solicitors. Being concerned that there might be a conflict of interest with just one Solicitor, I selected to have my own Solicitor - however this is more pricey.

2). Exchange of Contracts and Getting the Previous Owner to in fact leave!:

In Britain Solicitors concur a date for the Seller to vacate and the Buyer to move in. In Bulgaria - we showed up on the agreed date only to discover the previous owner still residing in the home we had purchased. Even more, it took numerous months to get this previous owner to leave. We also wound up needing to pay for 3 months of telephone, electricity and water bills since we were seen as accountable for bills on the date the residential or commercial property was transferred to us (regardless of the truth that the previous owners illegitimately continued living in our property).

3). Home builders:

We thought we had actually covered ourselves - we obtained Quotes in writing, we specified the materials, quality of finish and requirement of work we wanted. The Builders Web Site looked excellent and convincing. We've never ever seen such a horrible requirement of structure work in our lives ... The English Builder there was even worse than the Bulgarian Builder.

4). Being unjustly overcharged because you are British happens a lot - they are under the misapprehension that all British individuals are abundant!

We were substantial over-charged by the Accountant, the Solicitor, the Builders, the Agents, Taxi Drivers, Shop Keepers, Restaurants, etc. on numerous celebrations.

5). People Fraudulently posing as Solicitors, Estate Agents, Builders, etc

. There are sad stories of British individuals having purchased property on the basis of pictures they have actually seen on the internet - they get motivated to send their cash rapidly or they will lose the possibility to buy - but the property does not exist - they see it advertised on eBay or often advertised on an extremely outstanding looking site: British people have lost cash once again and once again. British people arrange to have actually cash moved from their Bank Account to someone they have actually been informed is a Solicitor just to discover that the so called Solicitor disappears with https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sue93tAHlaM their cash! One British Man living in Bulgaria impersonated a Builder, numerous British individuals offered him money to buy Materials for large scale structure tasks and this English Builder vanished with their cash - so it is not just the Bulgarian Fraudsters, it is the British Fraudsters in Bulgaria you have to keep an eye out for.

6). Estate Agents who do not inform the truth:

E.g. They will tell you that the property has Mains Water when infact it doesn't.

So that day I was sat in my Bulgarian Village, head in hands and having lost all faith in humanity. When asked to go for a picnic I assumed my Bulgarian Neighbours were joking because it was the middle of winter season and really cold in Bulgaria that day. I smiled and cleaned away my tears and told them that I was a strong woman and I would be OK. A Bulgarian Woman led me by the hand up to a field where I saw the Local Bulgarians had made a fire, laid out a big sheet on the ground and were cooking. It was my very first experience of a Picnic in Winter, but it was a terrific day - warm Rakia with Spices (Rakia is a local alcohol in Bulgaria), freshly cooked standard Bulgarian Food and Traditional Bulgarian Dancing round the Fire. Things still go wrong in Bulgaria sometimes, however on that winter season picnic day my faith in mankind was brought back and I've had many great times in Bulgaria given that.

I think you will like life in Bulgaria, but be quite on guard. I have actually developed a website to assist anyone thinking of buying residential or commercial property in Bulgaria. I also organise Language Courses to assist people who want to discover to speak Bulgarian and English Language Courses for Bulgarians.
