Indirect Property Purchases by Foreigners Under Scrutiny

The issue of property purchases by foreigners is returning to Parliament, with the Interior Committee having reached a unified text that will be discussed in plenary on April 2nd. The proposal aims to tighten and clarify the rules for the acquisition of land and property by citizens of third countries, especially in areas where weaknesses in the existing framework have been identified. The discussion has been rekindled due to the increased presence of non-European buyers in the property market and questions about the adequacy of existing control mechanisms. The text to be discussed in plenary is expected to include specific regulations to address these challenges.
