What should a client set aside for costs when purchasing an immovable?

When purchasing an immovable, it is advisable for a client to set aside approximately 1.5% to 2% of the sale price to cover associated costs. This range is practical as it generally encompasses various expenses that can arise during the purchase process. These may include, but are not limited to, notary fees, registration fees, inspection costs, and other administrative expenses.

Setting aside funds within this percentage range allows for a more comprehensive coverage of these costs, ensuring that the buyer is financially prepared for additional expenses beyond the purchase price itself. This preparation can help prevent unexpected financial strain after the transaction is completed, which is an important aspect of responsible property buying.
