Re: Recent legislation Affecting Property Purchase in Hungary ?
I sat is the office of a "kozjegyzo" or Notary yesterday in Veszprem to talk through options on Hungarian Wills. The inclusion of out of village property came up. She explained that in the cases of non Hungarian EU foreigners, in 99,9 % of cases, when the papers go the Min of Ag in Budapest, they find a reason why the sale should not go ahead.
Clearly I wish this was rubbish but on pushing yesterday, the lady advised that sadly that was the Hungarian way of doing things to keep EU people out of land ownership.
I wonder whether this accords with others experience of whether I should look for alternative legal advice?

In the case of a sale being rejected the solicitor involved should lodge the appeal or another solicitor if the person is not happy with the legal work done or the solicitor is not up to it.
Are there statistics available on EU foreigners land purchases since March 2014?

1/ There is at no point Central Government is involved in the Process in Purchasing the Property
2/ The chain is simple
a/ Statutory notice intent the purchase is posted by the settlement Polymaster if within the this time no one as any interest in increasing the price or have objections then He sends it to The District Government Office.
b/ The Document's sent to County Land Office whom then rubber stamp this there is no involvement by any other office this will take 28 days to Land Back at your Lawyers Desk
c/ Exchange Contracts, Lawyer Sends all document's back and the Official Document's are completed, this week received all document's back stating I am the Owner of the Land
It must be stated that cannot sell the Property for 5 years unless you Clog it then the Line of inheritance takes affect
The Land classification is Plot is called Special Outskirts Plot not Zartkert digger47
