Buying Real Estate

Therefore, as of 19.08.2018 the Government permits applications for citizenship by buying real estate worth at least USD 250.000. In this way real estate can be sold after 3 years of the ownership without any restrictions.

 

It is very important  that a due-diligence is made for such property assuring that it falls within the standards of the citizenship programme. For this reason, consulting to a professional before such investment is considered a necessity. Otherwise, a failure in this process may cause instant refusal of application by the Government.
