Who uses the home finding services of Budapest Property Finder?

Most of my clients are expatriate families who plan to stay in Hungary for 2 – 10+ years. I am available to all English or Hungarian speakers who are looking to buy or rent residential property in Budapest and in the Budapest suburbs. From families with small children to busy business executives, investor buyers, and everyone in between: you are welcome.

What do you do that I can’t?

I can search the entire real estate market and find the home: house, duplex, townhouse, or condo / flat / apartment you want, where you want it, and tell you whether the price is right. My Property Finding Service encompasses all aspects of buying or renting a home and allows you to control the process while not expending your valuable time. I am also able to offer professional property advice that is to your benefit and increases your chances of finding the right home or investment property in the Budapest area.

Besides finding a home that meets your criteria,

• I will give you personal assistance throughout the property acquiring process. All your viewings will be booked at a time that is convenient to you.
• Budapest Property Finder also carries out the follow up work including giving vendors feedback and carrying out negotiations on your chosen property.
• I will introduce you to proven and trustworthy real estate lawyers as part of my Property Finding Services, and I will work on your property purchase side by side with the lawyer during the completion of the process. Most of the time I can also recommend supplementary service providers such as property inspectors and mortgage advisers, who work to your time scales, not the other way round!

I suggest you to ‘book’ my services ahead of time, since Property Finding and client assistance all the way through completion of the purchase is a time consuming task, and I may not be able to help you immediately when you contact me. After you enlisted my home search services, I screen the listings according to your criteria, contact the listing agents or owners, ‘hand-pick’ the homes that seem to best fit your criteria… and soon you and I will be viewing homes together!

My Property Finding Services, however, do not include construction supervision for absent buyers, or free translation services between you and the local service providers you may have hired, for example, to take out a mortgage, or to complete or refurbish your new property. I may be able to assist you in these areas, too, for a separate hourly fee.

Where do you search for a property?

I am able to access and search any and all real estate databases in Hungary. I can gather information about property listed by Home Owners as well as Real Estate Agents. I have a business-to-business relationship with virtually all registered, legally operating local real estate agents in the Budapest area who have proven to be trustworthy.

This ensures that You as my client are able to benefit from an increased level of information and service. Since I do not ask Real Estate Agents to share their fees with me, the listings of more than 400 Real Estate Agents are free for me to pick from in the Budapest area, and I can be on your side 100% while the Listing Agents are working for the Owners. You do not need to speak Hungarian, because I do.

Do you charge for this service?

Yes. This is how I can give you 100% loyalty, putting your best interests before all others 100% of the time. Please review my fee structure.

Are you a search engine?

No. I constantly gather and receive information on a large number of properties, but these details are not available to the general public to browse. You can find a small number of listings on this site to give you an idea about Budapest real estate.

So how do I find out more?
