Buying real estate in Hungary – our portfolio
Due to most inquiries, we quote the price of the properties in Hungary in EUR. Our selling customers book in different currencies. The EUR price may therefore be indicative based on a manually set conversion rate in another currency, which may lead to slight deviations in the event of exchange rate fluctuations. Ask us for final prices.

What costs you will incur when buying a property in Hungary
Of course, the cost of the property in Hungary itself isn't enough. In addition, there is usually a 4% tax when purchasing the property, legal fees of 1%, your living expenses, the additional costs for your property and the costs for the move. Even if this seems like a financial burden at first, we can reassure you: you can save significantly in Hungary simply through the lower cost of living.
If you are interested in a complete list of additional costs compared to the costs in German-speaking countries (DACH), we have put this together for you on our website under the FAQ section. In summary, the additional costs can be calculated to be around 30-50% of what you pay in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Attractive additional costs, reduced living costs, good economic situation: buying a property in Hungary offers many advantages that can be documented in numbers.
Lake Balaton - real estate in Hungary in a popular travel destination
Lake Balaton is one of the most popular travel destinations and at the same time the largest lake in Central Europe. Living in a holiday paradise would be an understatement, because with its blue water, surrounded by gently rolling hills, you have a truly idyllic environment. It's hard to believe that living here isn't overpriced.
And if the breathtaking landscape isn't too much for you: As a wine lover, you'll never want to leave once you've settled into your Hungarian property. The entire area around Lake Balaton is known for its excellent wines - so you're sitting right at the source. Milk and honey still flow here! Or just wine.
Answers for FAQ about real estate in Hungary
You can find answers to most questions in detail on our FAQ page, but we would like to briefly address the most important topics here - if you would like to find out more about them, you can find detailed answers in our articles.
1. Finding a reputable Hungarian real estate website is not that easy. Do your research well and be sure to choose a trustworthy source like ungarn-immobilien.ch - otherwise it can cost you dearly.
2. Think about how big your property should be. There are some restrictions when purchasing land in Hungary when it comes to larger agricultural areas, such as fields, vineyards or forests. Are you a farmer? Do you have close relatives in Hungary? These are all factors that play a role here.
3. Take care of everything bureaucratic in good time with a good lawyer before you purchase the property and house. You don’t want to end up in debt at the end of the day because the property was mortgaged! You can find further details in our article on the 4 most important questions before buying a property in Hungary. We are happy to help with our experienced lawyers who draw up multilingual contracts.
In 2023, due to the removal of mortgage subsidies and high interest rates, there was a slight decrease in house prices, with an average decrease of 0.2% nationally. The rising real estate costs are based on factors such as steadily increasing construction costs (approximately 54% since 2010) and economic conditions such as high inflation and continued high foreign demand for real estate in attractive regions.
Experts expect 2024 to be a good year for the real estate market - but in the long term, prices could continue to rise. Demand for real estate remains high.
If you too have a genuine interest in property in Hungary, there is no better time than now. You can find a detailed analysis of property price developments in our FAQ.
