Notary fees
Notary fees bring together the registration duties, the notary's own fees and the incidental costs payable when buying a property.
These costs come on top of the purchase price of the property and are borne by the buyer, unless agreed otherwise. They cover in particular the registration duties collected by the authorities, the notary's remuneration for drawing up the deed, and the cost of registration in the land register.
They account for a significant share of the total budget of a property purchase and must be anticipated from the very start of the project, in addition to the price of the property itself.
