Question 1

Can foreign citizens buy property in Armenia?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Foreign nationals may own apartments and buildings in Armenia on the same terms as citizens, with no residency requirement and no special permit. The one restriction is agricultural land, which foreign individuals cannot own directly — though a company registered in Armenia can. We handle the full process, including the tax number and notarial registration.

Question 2

What are the total costs of buying, beyond the price?

Accepted Answer

Budget roughly 1–1.5% of the purchase price in total. State registration is a fixed, modest fee rather than a percentage-based transfer tax, and notary costs are similarly small. There is no stamp duty. Our commission is agreed in writing before we begin.

Question 3

How long does a purchase take from offer to keys?

Accepted Answer

For a straightforward cash purchase with clean title, two to three weeks is realistic. The registration itself is fast — often completed within a few working days. Delays come from unresolved title issues or an absent co-owner, which is what our pre-offer legal check surfaces early.

Question 4

What is standard for a rental deposit and lease term?

Accepted Answer

One month’s rent as a deposit and a twelve-month term is the norm in the prime segment; some landlords ask for two months on a furnished property. The deposit is returned within a fortnight of an agreed check-out.
