Buying a home in Romania can be challenging, especially for first-time buyers or those living in a foreign country. The complexities of the home-buying process can be overwhelming, from understanding local real estate laws to navigating through the paperwork involved. Add the challenge of being a non-resident, and the process becomes even more daunting.

Homevest can be a reliable support that accelerates the process of buying a property in Romania directly from abroad.

How easy is it to buy a property in Romania as a non-resident?

Even though the lending process involves several eligibility conditions, you can access a mortgage loan in Romania with income from abroad to buy a property.

To be eligible for a mortgage loan, you must meet specific requirements, such as having a stable income and being employed or having a business with a stable income. Additionally, it is essential to have a clean financial history and be able to provide proof of your income source.

It is important to carefully check each bank’s conditions and requirements before applying for a mortgage loan. There may be differences in interest rates, loan duration, maximum loan value, and other essential aspects.
