Attorney Fees
Local legal assistance involves a fee that varies according to the scope of service and complexity of the transaction — a cost that is recommended to be agreed upon in advance and in writing.
Notary and Registration Fees
Notarization of the contract and registration of ownership in the land registry (see the complete guide to the process) involve additional official fees.
| Type of Cost | When Paid |
|---|---|
| Attorney Fees | Throughout the process |
| Notary and Registration Fees | At signing and registration |
| Brokerage Fee | Upon completion of the transaction |
Brokerage Fee
In most transactions with a local broker, the brokerage fee is set as a percentage of the transaction price and is usually paid by the party that ordered the service.
