Stara Zagora: More observed four-room rentals with lower typical rent in September 2026

The typical rental budget for a four-room apartment in Stara Zagora in September 2026 is €470/month — the median of observed asking prices. This segment combines the strongest monthly growth in the number of observed rental apartments with a lower rent: compared with August 2026, the changes are +26.3% and -6.0%, respectively. During the month, 96 four-room rentals were observed.

For four-room apartments, the range is from €330/month to €700/month. These boundaries cover the middle 80% of observed asking prices. Three-room apartments have a similar typical rent — €460/month, but it is moving upward: +2.2% compared with August 2026. Their range is from €339/month to €650/month. Thus, the similar typical budgets are accompanied by different monthly directions and different boundaries for comparing specific offers.

For three-room apartments, 404 rental properties were observed, with the number up +21.7% compared with August. This is the other clear monthly increase among apartments. Unlike four-room units, here the increase in observed number is accompanied by a higher typical rent.

The comparison with June 2026 adds to the picture. For four-room apartments, the observed number is +6.7%, and rent is -6.0%. For three-room apartments, the differences are +8.9% for the number and +12.5% for rent. Therefore, the strong monthly increases in observed properties are larger than the differences compared with June, while rents for the two types move in different directions in this comparison as well.

The strongest monthly decline in observed rental apartments is among one-room units: -28.6% compared with August 2026, down to 35 properties. However, their typical rent is +2.0%, reaching €255/month, with a range from €187/month to €330/month.

There were 721 and 1,135 properties observed for sale, respectively. Compared with August 2026, their numbers are +3.4% and +2.6%, and typical prices per square metre are +0.4% and +0.5%.
