Unlike the procedure in Germany or Austria, real estate acquisition in Malta is carried out in a two-stage process:
1. Are foreign nationals (EU and non-EU citizens) permitted to purchase real estate in Malta without restrictions?
Answer:In principle, yes; however, the legal prerequisites depend on the location of the property and the residence status of the buyer:
2. What is a "Konvenju" (Convenju) and what is its legal significance?
The Konvenju is the legally binding preliminary agreement (Promise of Sale) pursuant to Article 1357 of the Maltese Civil Code (Chapter 16 of the Laws of Malta).
In Malta, real estate agents often operate in a legal grey area between buyer and vendor. Through Kresse Law, you gain the necessary independent distance from the market. Working alongside our architects, we not only assess the property’s valuation, but also rigorously examine the structural integrity of your contracts. We ensure that your lease or purchase agreement holds up before international tax authorities as genuine economic substance.
We support you in all areas of real estate law (commercial & residential) with legally robust planning, precise execution, and dedicated on-the-ground guidance in Malta.
