Costs of buying a property

Welcome to our website!

     Our company has been brokering real estate to foreign clients since 2000. We have already helped a significant number of buyers find the right property to meet their search requirements. We offer our clients not only support in the search and finding of a property, as well as the purchase process, but also with all other needs that arise afterward. Be it with craft services, renovations or other concerns where our buyers still lack local experience and knowledge.

     The purchase process in Hungary is relatively simple. Private individuals can purchase properties located within city limits without restrictions. For properties located outside of city limits, only 1 person may acquire 1 hectare or must possess the so-called "Golden Crown Farmer" qualification. However, this can unfortunately only be acquired in Hungary and in Hungarian as part of a 2-month course. In the case of properties located outside of city limits, a family of 4 can also acquire 4 hectares of land, divided into 1 hectare per person. In the inheritance of these properties, this restriction no longer applies, so even grandparents can be included in the purchase. The costs for the purchase of properties located within city limits are generally composed as follows:

• 4% real estate transfer tax
• 0.5% attorney fees
• Brokerage commission (by agreement)

     The prices of the properties are either fixed, without the possibility of negotiation, or a maximum discount of 3-5% can generally be expected.

In addition, we are of course always available to our customers for questions.
