ingatlanszerés

Ingatlanszerzés is a Hungarian term that translates to "real estate acquisition" or "property procurement." It encompasses the entire process of obtaining ownership of a real estate property in Hungary. This can include purchasing land, houses, apartments, or commercial buildings. The process typically involves several key stages, beginning with identifying a suitable property and agreeing on a price with the seller.

Once a mutual agreement is reached, a preliminary purchase agreement, known as an "adásvételi szerződés," is usually drafted. This document outlines the terms and conditions of the sale, including the purchase price, payment schedule, and handover date. It is crucial that this contract is prepared by a qualified legal professional, such as a lawyer or a notary public, to ensure its validity and protect the interests of both parties.

Following the signing of the preliminary agreement, the buyer typically pays a deposit, often referred to as a "foglaló." The next step involves the formal transfer of ownership, which must be registered with the Hungarian land registry ("ingatlan-nyilvántartás"). This registration process is vital for establishing legal ownership and is handled by a notary public. The final payment is made, and the property officially changes hands. Ingatlanszerzés can also extend to other forms of acquisition, such as inheritance or gifts, though the legal procedures may differ.
