Attractive villa in a very nice location

When buying a property, you must expect the following ancillary acquisition costs: Land transfer tax, notary and land registry fees, brokerage fees and bank charges.

Before buying a property, the building fabric and building services should be examined in detail. In the case of houses, the building must be thoroughly examined from the outside. Are the facade, windows and doors in order? Is there a need for repair? The gutters, downpipes and exterior lighting should also be considered.

The amount of repayment determines the total term of the financing.

Most property developers largely exclude the purchaser's own contribution, as delimitation problems arise with regard to warranty and defect removal claims.

The exact amount of equity to be contributed depends on the financial and income situation of the potential buyer as well as the location and risk profile of the property.
