These fees are due on the day of the transfer of ownership and are traditionally shared between the buyer and the seller.

Expenses vary according to the size of the residence, the level of equipment and the services in general. When buying an apartment or villa in a community, it is essential to take into account the amount of monthly charges.

In the case of a villa or residence that is not condominium type, the foreign purchaser is offered two solutions in order to access the property. The most common solution is a 30-year leasing with two renewal guarantees for a total of 90 years. When launching a new real estate project the freehold apartments are often the first ones sold. Several arrangements are possible to secure the investment. We work with law firms on a case by case basis.
