Izgrev
suburb · Sofia
72/ 100
Excellent
Izgrev is Sofia's most expensive address per square metre, a leafy, quiet-streeted quarter by Borisova garden where the price buys greenery and status. At 2.5% gross yield it is the slowest-payback purchase in the city, which makes it a renter's paradise in relative terms. Forum sentiment about it is muddled by other places named Izgrev, so treat word of mouth carefully. ↗
