In short

From 2011 to 2019 the VOTCHINA real estate agency presented Black Sea properties at exhibitions in St Petersburg, Moscow, Kyiv and Odesa and held dozens of seminars together with coastal developers — 22 seminars in 21 cities in 2016 alone.

Participation diplomas

These are participation diplomas, not awards. They show something else: that for years we stood at the stand in person and answered buyers' questions face to face.

Seminars: developers and buyers in one room

We were among the first to bring Black Sea developers to buyers — in the buyers' own cities. First with one developer, then with several leading companies from Varna, Sunny Beach, Sozopol and Pomorie. The programme was always the same: a market overview, the legal steps of buying, residence options, questions and answers, and an invitation to view properties in Bulgaria.

2014–2015: about 10 seminars a year together with the developer of the Sweet Homes complexes — Chișinău (31 May 2014, TRACOM hall), Kyiv (April 2015), Kryvyi Rih, Odesa and more. 2016: Construction Forum 2016 — 22 seminars in 21 cities in Ukraine, Moldova and Belarus from 1 April to 2 November, with 40–125 people per seminar (our figures from that year). 2017 was the last year of the seminars.

We no longer hold seminars in this format, but the principle has stayed: before buying, the client talks directly to us and, if needed, to the developer, and the viewing can also be a live video call.

“Buying Together” group tours

After the seminars we invited buyers on group tours from Odesa — 5 days each: viewings on the southern and northern coast, consultations with an agent, a lawyer and a notary, and in the evenings Bulgarian food and folklore. In 2015–2016 we ran several such tours a year; four in 2016 alone.

What this means for you today

Developers know us

Years together at stands and in seminar halls mean that today we can put a question directly to the developer and get an honest answer.

We talk face to face

We are used to answering buyers' questions in person — at the office, by phone or on a live video viewing.

Our archive is public

We keep and show our old materials: if we wrote something back then, you can check it today.

Questions and answers

Are these diplomas awards?

No. They are participation diplomas from the exhibition organisers. We show them as proof that we were there in person, not as distinctions.

Do you still hold seminars?

Not in the old format. Today we advise in person at our office in Varna, by phone and online, and the viewing can be a live video call.

Do the terms in the old publications and ads still apply?

No. Prices, properties, vouchers and certificates from those years are archive. Today's terms are in the General terms and conditions and in the contract you sign.

Where is the agency's full history?

On the page Company history — a timeline from 2010 to today.
