Frequently Asked Questions

What factors speed up a sale?

A property in a recognized, in-demand project, in an attractive location (coast, proximity to tourist centers), with realistic pricing relative to the market, and clean, orderly registration — all of these significantly shorten sale time compared to a property with no notable advantages.

Who are the potential buyers in the resale market?

Local buyers, additional international investors seeking market exposure, and sometimes also buyers interested in specific projects that have already proven themselves. Reputable projects (like Sea Breeze) enjoy a wider pool of buyers.

Is it better to use a local agent for the sale?

Definitely recommended — a local agent knows the potential buyer pool, current market prices, and can manage the legal-procedural process more efficiently than an independent remote sale.

What happens to residency status (if any) after selling the property?

This is an important question to check in advance with an attorney — selling the property that granted residency eligibility may affect residency status, depending on the stage the investor is at (temporary versus permanent). It's important to plan this in advance if residency is significant to you.

What's worth doing already at the purchase stage to ensure future liquidity?

Choosing projects with a proven track record and broad demand (not just narrow boutique projects), and keeping organized documentation throughout the ownership period — all of these significantly ease a fast and efficient sale in the future.
