Real feedback from people who completed the course and applied practical solutions in their apartments
I signed up two days before the deadline and I'm glad I didn't miss it. The course gave me a clear plan for organizing my 65 sq.m apartment. Within three weeks, I reorganized the kitchen storage, optimized the bedroom layout, and finally solved the problem with the narrow hallway. The instructor provided specific measurements and product recommendations that actually fit Bulgarian stores. Worth every lev.
Good course with practical advice. I learned how to maximize space in my one-bedroom apartment. The module on lighting made a real difference. Only downside - some video lessons could be shorter, but the content itself is solid.
The course helped me prepare my apartment for rent. I followed the recommendations on neutral colors, proper furniture arrangement, and lighting adjustments. My property now rents 20% above the neighborhood average. The investment paid off in the first month.
Decent course covering basic apartment optimization. The section on storage solutions was helpful - I built custom shelving in my living room based on the measurements provided. However, I expected more advanced techniques for dealing with old panel building limitations. The course is more suitable for standard modern apartments. Still, I got several useful ideas and the price was reasonable.
Applied for the course on the last day and received immediate access. The step-by-step approach made it easy to implement changes gradually. My 48 sq.m apartment now feels twice as spacious!
As someone working from home, I needed to create a functional office space in my small apartment. The course provided exact dimensions for a compact workspace that doesn't overwhelm the living room. I also learned how to improve acoustics and reduce noise from neighbors. The instructor responded to my questions within 24 hours. Highly recommend for anyone in a similar situation.
The course met my expectations. I learned practical techniques for organizing a small bathroom and optimizing closet space. Would have liked more examples of Bulgarian apartments, but overall the information was applicable. Delivery of materials took two days instead of immediate as promised.
I bought an old apartment that needed complete reorganization. The course gave me a framework to work with contractors and make informed decisions. I saved approximately 1,500 leva by avoiding unnecessary renovations and focusing on what actually improves functionality. The module on color psychology helped me choose a palette that makes the space feel larger.
The course covers fundamental principles of apartment organization. I found the sections on furniture placement and traffic flow particularly useful. My main issue is that some recommendations require purchasing new furniture, which wasn't clearly stated upfront. The course works best if you have a budget for improvements. That said, I did implement several free solutions that improved my daily life. Fair value for the price.
Registered just before the deadline closed. The course helped me transform my cluttered apartment into an organized space. Simple solutions, clear instructions, immediate results.
My wife and I were constantly arguing about the mess in our apartment. This course taught us a system for organizing our 72 sq.m space that works for both of us. We implemented the kitchen workflow optimization and the bedroom storage system. The apartment stays organized now with minimal effort. The course paid for itself in reduced stress alone.
Practical course with actionable advice. I appreciated the focus on budget-friendly solutions. Some sections could be more detailed, but overall I got what I needed to reorganize my apartment. Good starting point for anyone looking to improve their living space.

Practical training for apartment owners in Sofia since 2019
UrbanHomeAnswers started in 2019 when three interior designers and renovation specialists in Sofia noticed a pattern. Apartment owners repeatedly made the same costly mistakes during renovations and space planning. They spent money on solutions that didn't fit their actual needs.
We created a structured program that teaches practical approaches to apartment improvement. Our courses cover space optimization, material selection, budget planning, and contractor management. Each module includes real examples from Sofia apartments and hands-on exercises.
We teach apartment owners how to make informed decisions about their living spaces. Our instructors have 8-15 years of experience in residential projects across Sofia districts including Lozenets, Mladost, and Oborishte.
The program runs for 6 weeks with evening sessions twice per week. Participants learn to evaluate contractor proposals, choose appropriate materials for Bulgarian climate conditions, and plan renovations that increase property functionality.
Current enrollment deadline: Limited spots remain for the upcoming session starting next month. Applications close in 5 days.
We focus on practical knowledge that apartment owners can apply immediately. Classes include case studies from actual Sofia properties, budget worksheets, and contractor evaluation checklists.
Students receive templates for planning renovations, lists of reliable suppliers in Sofia, and access to our alumni network for ongoing support.
