At the end of 2024, Bulgarians' wealth hit a record high of 1 trillion leva (€511.29 billion), which is five times higher than the gross domestic product. According to a study by the Expert Club on Economics and Politics, reported by BNR's Natalia Ganchovska, the average household has 350,000 levs (€178,952).

Seventy percent of what Bulgarians own is real estate. Just over one percent is in other forms of investment. The study also shows that 2024 was a record year for the number of real estate transactions, surpassing the previous record set in 2008.
