How much tax will you pay on the purchase of real estate?
9/21/2026
When purchasing a property, you'll likely pay one of two taxes: PCC (Company Tax) or VAT. On the secondary market, PCC (Company Tax) is most commonly used – the rate is generally 2% of the property's market value. VAT primarily applies when the seller is a VAT payer, such as a developer or a company selling the property as part of its business. That's not all. From the moment the contract is finalized, you are required to pay property tax annually. Its amount depends on factors such as the type of property, its area, and the rates set by the municipality.
How to buy real estate without intermediaries?
9/15/2026
Purchasing real estate without intermediaries means direct contact with the owner and independently navigating the most important stages of the transaction: selecting an offer, verifying the legal status, reviewing documents, assessing the property's technical condition, negotiating, and signing the notarial deed. This approach can reduce commission costs and streamline communication. However, it requires knowledge of the legal aspects of the transaction and a thorough inspection of the property before purchase.

8/21/2026

Office building – how much space do you need for your business?
8/14/2026
The size of office space depends primarily on the number of employees, work organization, and the facilities the company needs. It's generally recommended to allocate approximately 8-10 m² per workstation. However, when meeting rooms, circulation areas, and break rooms are factored in, the total requirement is larger. A company employing 10 people might need an office space of approximately 150-200 m². Before purchasing a property, it's also important to consider the layout, adaptability, location, number of parking spaces, and maintenance costs.
How to check if a property has debt before buying?
7/29/2026
Before purchasing a property, it's worth checking not only its technical condition but also its legal and financial standing. A property's debt can be verified primarily through the land and mortgage register, as well as through documents confirming the absence of arrears in fees or taxes. Analyzing mortgage records and other encumbrances helps reduce the risk associated with the purchase and facilitate a more secure transaction.
