How much does a lawyer cost when buying a property?

Complete supervision of a purchase or sale including the lawyer's escrow costs CZK 14,900 incl. VAT. A standalone application for entry in the cadastre costs CZK 3,500.

What is a lawyer's escrow for?

The purchase price stays safe with the lawyer until the cadastre registers the new owner. The buyer doesn't lose their money and the seller has certainty that it has been deposited.

What if I already have a contract from the estate agency?

Contracts drafted for one side are precisely the risky ones. A lawyer reviews them, flags the risky clauses and proposes changes in your favour.
