  • Installments. 30% is paid at signing the preliminary contract. Another 40% after receipt of the Construction act No. 14.
  • Guarantee on construction. According to the laws of Bulgaria: 10 years in rough construction and for 5 years for the finishing work.
  • When you make a major part or the entire amount at once, you can save 5-10% of the budget.
  • Built of modern materials in compliance with strict standards and GOSTs. However, it is worth noting that some experts believe the old panel blocks, a more advantageous option in terms of energy saving.
