The offices in Sofia stir the interest of the foreign investors

The number of available offices in Sofia has dropped, since the interest towards them is serious for the first time after the start of the global financial crises. The Sofia offices that are now available are around 20% from the total number of offices in Sofia or around 350 000 sq.m. Around 70% of the available office premises in Sofia are positioned in business buildings outside the center of the capital. Since the beginning of the year have been rented almost 76 000 sq.m of office premises which is an increase with 150% compared to the first half of 2012. The companies which are in search of offices in Sofia come from the outsourcing sector mainly. These are large international companies that are coming to Sofia for the low rental levels, the easy process of company registration in Bulgaria and the low taxes. These companies are renting the offices of class A, which offer many facilities and modern extras.

According to the real estate specialists, there are 18 office centers in Sofia of the highest class, which correspond to the international requirements for the quality of construction, the easy access with automobiles and public transport, etc. The offices that the investors like most are set along “Tsarigradsko Schousse” Blvd. and “Bulgaria” Blvd., as well as near the Sofia Airport and the ring road. The rental of Sofia offices varies from 9 to 12 Euro/sq.m depending on the location.
