What costs appear when buying property

Beyond the property price, a formal purchase in Paraguay can include transfer costs, municipal tax, notary and registry work, appraisal, title study, and insurance when bank financing is involved.

This calculator separates typical buyer and seller costs so you can budget the transaction before reserving a property or signing an offer.

How to budget a purchase

Before making an offer, separate the property price from closing costs.

  1. 1

    Confirm who pays each cost

    Brokerage, taxes, and certificates can be negotiated differently between buyer and seller.

  2. 2

    Ask for a notary estimate

    The notary can estimate rates, certificates, fees, and registry costs for the real case.

  3. 3

    Add loan costs

    If there is bank financing, add appraisal, title study, insurance, and origination costs.

Frequently asked questions

Does the seller always pay brokerage?

That is common in many transactions, but it depends on the commercial agreement. Confirm before making an offer.

Do bank costs apply if I buy in cash?

Not all of them. Bank appraisal, internal title study, and origination costs usually apply when there is a loan.

Does this replace a notary?

No. It is a fast budget estimate. The final settlement should be prepared by the professional handling the transaction.
