FAQ
Can a foreigner buy property in Panama?
Yes, foreigners have the same rights as Panamanians to acquire real estate in Panama, except for properties located within 10 kilometers of the border. Residency is not required to purchase property.
Do I need a lawyer to buy property in Panama?
It is highly recommended to have a lawyer specialized in real estate to conduct due diligence: verification of the property title, liens, pending litigation, tax status, and review of the purchase agreement.
What taxes are paid when buying a property in Panama?
When purchasing property in Panama, the transfer tax must be paid (2% of the sale value or the cadastral value, whichever is higher), as well as registration fees at the Public Registry. There are property tax exemptions for new properties.
Is it safe to buy property in Panama?
Yes, Panama has a reliable property registration system. All titled properties are registered in the Public Registry. The key is to conduct complete legal due diligence before signing any purchase agreement.
Does buying a property give me the right to residency in Panama?
Buying a property by itself does not grant residency, but it can be part of the requirements for visas such as the Golden Visa (with a minimum investment of $300,000 USD in real estate) or the Investor Visa. Our lawyers can advise you on the best strategy to combine real estate investment with residency.
