Two countries, the same deal, the same questions.
Choose two or three countries and enter a price. The table places side by side the costs on the day of purchase, the annual costs, the restrictions on foreign buyers, the regulatory changes still open and the inheritance deadlines. Every figure has a source and a date.
On a phone: scroll the table sideways to see all the countries.
The table presents data side by side and does not rank the countries or recommend any of them. Each row comes with its source. Costs: as of 30.10.2026. Regulatory radar: as of 10.11.2026. Inheritance deadlines: as of 30.10.2026. A cost that is usually included in the price (such as VAT on a new apartment) and a tax that applies only to high-value property are shown in the breakdown and are not counted in the total. A row with no data in our database is marked “Check in a call”.
The information is general and is not legal or tax advice, and is no substitute for reviewing a specific deal. Amounts are shown as ranges and vary by property, municipality and parties. Rates and deadlines change, so verify every figure against the source and with a lawyer before committing.
Disclosure: Adv. Ilan Leibovitch is also a real-estate developer and a partner in Compass Group, the developer of Compass on the Lake in Romania. The office does not represent buyers or investors in transactions with Compass Group or its projects, and refers them to independent counsel.
