 VAT 9% – Offer valid only for certain buyers

From August 1, 2025, the reduced VAT rate of 9% is no longer commonly applied for home purchases. However, remains valid for those persons who meet all the conditions stipulated by law:

You are still eligible for the 9% VAT rate if:

  1. You signed until July 31, 2025 a inter vivos legal act (e.g., sale and purchase agreement);
  2. You have paid up to July 31, 2025 a a minimum advance of 20% the value of the home, by bank transfer;
  3. The purchased residence has maximum 120 mp useful and value under 600,000 lei (without VAT);
  4. You have not benefited from reduced VAT for another home purchased between January 1, 2023, and August 1, 2025.

If you meet all these conditions, you can finalize the home purchase including VAT 9%, by late July 31, 2026.

The standard VAT rate for housing is now 21%

For all other buyers, the applicable VAT is 21%, according to the new standard rate in effect as of August 1, 2025. This increase from 19% to 21% could result in significant additional costs.

How can we help you NOT feel this increase?

Regardless of the chosen residence, for all contracts signed in September 2025, we are applying a discount to the displayed price. (list price or promotional price) to cover the difference between the 19% rate and the new 21% rate, so that you, as a buyer, don't acutely feel this increase.

The price communicated or displayed online, excluding VAT, is multiplied by 1.19 to obtain the total payment. Additionally, we have prepared a list of 25 studio apartments, with 2 and 3 rooms – with a promotional price, valid until the end of the month.
