General questions
Questions about the Magyar Kúria
"Everything, with the exception of" is the answer. The forbidden and limited real estates are:
Buying
agricultural real estates is nearly impossible, it is not important
whether the entire estate has an agricultural zoning or only a part.
Without being a farmer the maximal surface is limited to 1 ha (2
1/2 acres). This limit is not ment for one single estate, but foor
entire Hungary. There are exceptions for registered farmes living in
Hungary. In all cases you need a permit to buy and quite a list of
persons and institutions have the right of first refusal - in all cases
determined by law. Being foreigner in Hungary you better don't even try
to buy agricultural estates. So you can buy everything in the
"inner area" of a community what does not qualify as agricultural ground, as well as houses in the "outer
area" can be excepted from the list of forbidden real estate.
In the "inner area" is no limitation of the
surface.

Can I buy everything without permission up from May 1st 2004, when Hungary joins the European Union?
I'm afraid you can not. As citizen of EU, EEA or Switserland you may buy everything except agricultural estates without permission. Other citizens need a permission for buying anything. Agricultural estates may be limitedly bought by citizens of EU, EEA or Switserland with a permission, others mustn't at all.

Why is it for foreigners so difficult to get a construction permit?
This is not true! Foreigners may build a house under the same conditions as Hungarians. The bureaucratic situation is not very easy for foreigners, but therefore you make this together with a specialist that is familiar with the Hungarian rules! You even can not apply for a constructing permit personally; therefore you need an officially registered technician. But all this is no real problem: the rules are less strict than in Western Europe.

Will the prices increase when Hungary joins the EU?
The prices have been much lowered after an overheated period and are recovering since 2013 slowly on a low level.
Back to the list with questions
Is it possible to be expropriated again in Hungary?
No! The opposite is true: in Hungary there is a special law for protection of foreign investments. The Hungarian state forbids some purchases (see also "What may I buy as foreigner"), but then the state is very protective with that property.

It is true that there are richer and poorer regions in Hungary. Also the politics about the minorities is in some cases just perfect, in others - pity enough more often - just a catastrophe. Who Hungary knows a little and says that this would not be true is either blind about social realities or does not want to accept those realities. And of course it is true that Hungary is a country where many minorities and also many mentalities meet each other. But so different the regions and the there living people might be, nobody is determined by his ethnic, regional or social decadence to be criminal. The average life standards in Hungary are on a lower level than in western countries, but this standard and with it the quality of life increase. It is quite important from which side you are approaching a level. I don't want to tell anybody that there are no crimes in Hungary, as told by some real estate agents as well. But luckily is the risk to be victim of a crime here lower than in Western Europe. Also shouldn't you compare apples with pears, a vacation home is no house where constantly is lived in. Conclusion? Fear is even fault as incautious, just act normal!

I have problems, where I must be?
It is impossible to tell you a solution for every problem here. But when you are in trouble we often can tell you a good address to be. In construction cases we can take it over, because of our own expertise. Is it about juridical problems about real estate we will arrange for you an appointment with an in this question very well informed lawyer. Often we can give just some good advice that is very valuable for someone in problems, while the answer on an easy question is for free of course. This we do not only offer to people who already are our customers, but to everyone!

What are the costs of visiting houses?
All the time you need. Seriously: it doesn't matter how long we visit how many houses, it always will be for free! You don't pay any fee for visits, no money for gasoline and nothing else, in one word: nothing. About firms that want you to pay for visiting houses I don't say anything here, please make up your mind yourself!

We expect that everybody has to obey the law. It is a pity that we are living in a world not everybody thinks like this. But this does not mean that we have to merchandise our products by telling always that we do. Of course you find all legal information on the site with the firm's information.

Why is none of the directors of the Magyar Kúria lawyer?
To avoid the possible idea among our customers to unite our interests with the interests of seller or buyer we only work with a lawyer who is not part of our team. We are pleased about every firm that let pass contracts by an independent lawyer.
Back to the list with questions
Why does Magyar Kúria cooperage with other enterprises?
We want to sell a complete product. Our team can do a lot, but not everything. That's why we work with partners, which make it possible to offer a product that is much broader and has much more quality than one firm alone could offer. Ideal for customers who have one partner only who is responsible for everything! Who ever has made the experience that one firm tells the next would be responsible knows how important one responsible is.

Why does the Magyar Kúria see herself not as real estate agent?
First of all: we are real estate agent in the sense of law of course. You needn't a qualification for being real estate agent at all. We do not see ourselves as real estate agent, because we do much more than a normal real estate agent does. We are allowed to develop real estate projects and offer many services about Hungarian real estate. We do much more than the services that normally may be expected by real estate agents - by the way not only for customers who bought a house with us. Our service is always comparable!
Back to the list with questions
Why does Magyar Kúria use prices in Forint and not in Euro or Pound?
We have nearly only Hungarian sellers. Most Hungarians have a good relationship with their freely convertible money and normally do not want foreign currencies for their houses, products and services. Somewhere there might be an exception and those exceptions we remark on our website clearly. The exchange rates are not always the same and we load the actual rates regularly. Because we do our business in Forint we can tell you exact prices without adding an amount for the risks for changing real estate rates. So we can calculate fairer than possible in Euros or Pounds. At our office we daily receive the actual exchange rates and can tell you the most correct amounts in Euro.
Back to the list with questions
Why doesn't pay Magyar Kúria the journeys of possibility buyers to Hungary?
A journey to Hungary for free for everybody? Nice idea. But is that fair concurrence? No! And who pays? Those customers who buy indeed. And would you like to pay the journey for ten further customers when buying a house? That is the only secret behind those actions. Searching publicity is a good thing, but not for every price on the shoulders of the customers!
Back to the list with questions
Why doesn't Magyar Kúria build the houses, which are shown on the website?
Constructing a house according a fix plan is very easy. And this is the normal method of many constructors. Without any fantasy just "take it or leave it". Our proposals are not for sale, but to inspire our customers and to show how the possibilities are, which houses fit into the landscape and to give an idea about the costs. We realise the desires of our customers only, although this means more work. It does not matter whether you want to renovate your living, add bathroom to an existing house, build several rooms in a barn or construct a complete house. Our questions is "how do you want to live" and not "do you select A or B?".
Back to the list with questions
Why has Magyar Kúria an office in Hungary only, but none in other countries?
We are an enterprise selling products in Hungary; we are just nearby our products. An office abroad might be good to show some pictures while having a cup of coffee, but a journey to Hungary is absolutely necessary. The traffic routes are very good, even as all communication possibilities. From abroad we could not offer more than we can on distance from Hungary - except the cup of coffee of course...
