Legal Assistance for Real Estate Transactions in Panama
Investing in real estate in Panama is a lucrative opportunity, but it is essential to follow proper legal procedures to avoid potential risks. Our law firm provides expert legal support for:
✅ Title Verification & Due Diligence – Before purchasing any property, we conduct a thorough title search in the Public Registry of Panama to confirm ownership, check for liens or encumbrances, and ensure the property is legally sound.
✅ Drafting & Reviewing Sales Contracts – We draft and review all legal documents, including purchase agreements, promissory contracts, and lease agreements, ensuring they meet Panamanian real estate regulations.
✅ Escrow & Funds Protection – To provide added security, we guide our clients through escrow services, ensuring a transparent and protected financial transaction.
✅ Property Registration – After completing a real estate purchase, we register the new title deed in the Public Registry, securing your legal ownership rights.
Real Estate Purchase for Foreigners in Panama
Panama’s legal system allows foreign nationals to buy, own, and sell property with the same rights as Panamanian citizens. Some key aspects of purchasing property in Panama include:
✅ Property with a Registered Title – Most real estate in Panama consists of titled properties, which are recorded in the Public Registry, similar to property registration systems in the U.S., Canada, and Europe.
✅ Right of Possession (ROP) Properties – Some properties, especially in coastal and island areas, fall under Right of Possession (ROP) regulations. These require extra legal steps to ensure proper ownership rights.
✅ Investor & Residency Benefits – Buying property in Panama may also qualify you for certain residency programs, such as the Friendly Nations Visa or the Investor Visa, offering long-term legal residency.
