Testimonials
Having experienced the 'hard sell' of many other overseas property agents, it was like a breath of fresh air to come across Jim at Bulgarias Finest. His honesty, help, useful advice and strong relationship with the developers has made our first experience in buying property abroad both exciting and enjoyable. We were also extremely encouraged by the fact that Jim has bought properties himself on the development - there can be no greater example of demonstrating your belief in a project. As we are about to take ownership of our fantastic new apartment at IBAR, we never realised buying property abroad could be so stress free !!

We decided to buy a property in Bulgaria and after doing our research we felt that Ibar Golf and Country Club really did stand out from the crowd. We contacted Bulgaria's Finest and were really impressed with them right from the very first phone call, Jim Lawlor, the Managing Director, gave us really good advice on getting the best possible property for our budget. Throughout the process they have kept us well informed of developments and have answered our questions in a prompt and efficient manner. We would recommend Bulgaria's Finest to anyone as we have found it a real pleasure dealing with a company that is so genuine and honest and who really do care about providing an excellent customer service. Thanks for all your help

Having identified the Sofia/Borovets area as the area in which we intended to invest, we visited the area in Sept 2006 to view some properties. Many of these were a bit too rural for us, however before returning to Sofia we called in the then new Golf club Ibar development in Dolna Banya.

Jim Lawlor, MD of Bulgaria’s Finest, has worked tirelessly on my behalf to answer my many questions fully and honestly. Given this information I was able to make a qualified decision and have now purchased a front line Anna2G. Jim clearly has a good repore with the developers and is highly regarded by them and purchasers alike.

A year ago I made the decision to purchase a property in Bulgaria, after carrying out detailed research I decided to purchase a property on the Nicklaus designed Ibar Golf complex. To purchase this property I commissioned the services of their main agents a company called Bulgarias Finest. In hindsight this was to be a wise decision, the company adopt a professional and friendly approach to business, unlike many property agents their support and assistance has continued even after the property has been paid for. I was that pleased with the support I received from Bulgarias Finest, I recommended their services to friends of mine who were also considering purchasing a property at Ibar. I strongly recommend Bulgarias Finest services to anyone consider purchasing a property in Bulgaria.

After researching several different options in Bulgaria, the professionalism and knowledge shown by Bulgarias finest was reassuring for someone making a first time investment. Our best interests were always considered to ensure we had the best villa options and continued after our contracts had been signed. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them in the future.

JIM, you are legend !

The idea of buying property in Bulgaria seemed very appealing, but also rather daunting because we were buying off-plan, the obvious language barriers, the different culture and the fact that Bulgaria was a developing market.
I initially made contact with Jim at Bulgarias Finest, who impressed me because as an investor himself in Ibar, he was very knowledgeable about the development and the buying process and was able to answer all my queries very promptly. He also helped arrange our inspection trip to the site by liaising with Ibar, and making sure we were well looked after whilst in Bulgaria.
Throughout the build process, Jim kept us informed of progress with regular telephone calls and e-mails, including sending us pictures of our property under construction, so that my wife and I could see the transformation for ourselves.
Unlike other agents I have dealt with, Jim at Bulgarias Finest always returned my calls or e-mails very promptly, which may only sound like a little thing, but when you are investing thousands of pounds, it is reassuring to know that someone cares and is interested in your transaction as much as you are.
If anyone is considering buying in Bulgaria, I couldn't recommend Bulgarias Finest highly enough to ensure a smooth hassle-free buying experience.

Hi I am based in the UK and came across Bulgarias Finest whilst on the internet. I contacted the company and was very impressed with the knowledge and set up of this up and coming project.
I decided to go to Bulgaria and see for myself. This was all arranged for me and I was picked up from the airport and taken to the Ibar site. The reprehensive answered all my questions and I had the opportunity to meet the Nicholas head designer of the golf course. I came back to the UK very satisfied on what I had seen.
I decided to purchase a Villa Anna 1. Bulgarias Finest set all this up for me and the contracts were signed and sealed.
This has been a no hassle and pleasurable experience and look forward to the project completion and I am 110% sure this will be an outstanding success.Thank again..

Dear Jim
I went to Bulgaria on holiday without any intention of buying a property. After visiting the Country I was so impressed with the beauty and its potential and did some extensive research.
I came across the Nicklaus Golf Course, IBAR and was very impressed with the prices, and of course, with the Jack Nicklaus name, I couldn't go wrong.
I contacted Jim at Bulgaria's Finest and was very impressed with the service I received. First and foremost was his honesty, along with the non-pressured advice. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending, firstly, Bulgaria's Finest, secondly, IBAR Golf and Country Club and thirdly, Bulgaria with its beautiful scenery and hospitable people.
Many thanks.

My partner and I purchased a studio apartment on the Ibar complex in April of this year. We paid the full amount up front, instead of going with the staged payments. The deposit we paid to secure the property was refunded as soon as the funds were transferred into their Bulgarian account from my partner's UK bank account. After that we received the contracts promptly and have since received regular updates as to the progress of the development and the stages of build on our particular apartment block. We haven't, as yet, had to use a solicitor for anything.
At all times the staff at Bulgaria's Finest have been really helpful, always replying to emails or telephone calls. They have given loads of helpful, constructive advice and guidance.
Our apartment is due for completion in January and so far we feel reassured that we have made a good investment.

We would not hesitate to recommend you and your company. Thanks again.

It was with some interest that I found out about the Golf Club IBar development to be built near Sofia, Bulgaria, however, not knowing anything about the country or its people or indeed the potential problems that could develop, I was somewhat hesitant in making a commitment. However, with the generous assistance of Mr. Lawlor, the UK based MD of "Bulgarias Finest", I eventually decided to commit to the project and have purchased an "Anna 2 Villa". The level of service that I have received from Mr Lawlor and the staff has been of the highest calibre, and I see no reason why it cannot continue until the project completes. I am delighted with my purchase and look forward to many enjoyable days spent in winter and summer in Bulgaria. I am happy to confirm that the performance of the companies representatives in both Bulgaria and the UK has lived up to the claim Bulgarias Finest
