ERA Bulgaria real estate agency figures show that since the start of 2007, property prices have risen by as much as 20 per cent.
The firm has since predicted that residential property prices in the country are expected to grow by a further ten per cent by the end of the year.
And many experts believe that real estate developers from across central and eastern Europe are now turning their attention to Bulgaria.
"As Estonian real estate developers have acquired skills and experience by working in a new market, they are in turn becoming the leading visionaries in […] Bulgaria," said Andres Hall of the Estonian agency Uus Maa.
