A buyer’s example
Find out where a flat gets its light and heat
If you shortlist a flat on the Yamacha side of Haskovo and another nearer your usual stops, visit both in the afternoon. In the main room, ask which windows get direct sun and how the owner shades them in summer. In a bedroom facing another building, see how much daylight reaches the room with the curtains open. Write down the difference in each room you would spend time in.
Ask how the owner heated the flat last winter and which equipment will stay. Look at the outside wall and the shared stairs on the way out. If the flat needs new windows or work around the façade, find out which decisions depend on other owners. A property can suit your route into town and still need a separate budget for comfort.
