imobiliare

Imobiliare is a Romanian term used to describe real estate and the related activities that concern immovable property such as land and buildings. It encompasses both the property itself and the sector of services—buying, selling, leasing, valuing, and managing real estate.

In usage, it appears in expressions such as piata imobiliara (real estate market), agentie imobiliara or companie imobiliara (real estate agency), and in contracts like vanzare-cumparare and inchiriere. The term thus covers property transactions, valuation, and management.

The imobiliare sector involves professionals including real estate agents and brokers, property valuers, notaries, lawyers, and lenders. Typical processes include property valuation, due diligence, checking cadastral records, drafting or authenticating a transfer deed, and registering ownership in the land registry.

Regulation varies by country but generally rests on civil law principles that protect ownership rights and regulate transfers. The market is influenced by lending conditions, taxation, and property registration systems. Professional licensing for agents and standardized contractual practices contribute to market transparency.

In Romanian usage, imobiliare is closely aligned with the broader real estate sector and is understood within the context of housing, commercial, and agricultural properties.
