Bright renovated apartment with kitchen and dining table in Budapest
Parents of international students

Buying an apartment for your child studying in Budapest

Five or six years of rent add up. Buying an apartment near the university gives your son or daughter a home for their studies, and you an asset that can be let to other students afterwards.

A home for the whole degree

No moving every year, no lease to renegotiate: the apartment is theirs for as long as they study.

A room for a flatmate

With two bedrooms, the rent paid by a classmate helps cover the charges.

Let after graduation

Near the faculties, student demand comes back every September: the apartment keeps working.

Managed while you are abroad

Purchase, works, tenants, bills: our team handles it on the spot and reports to you.

Where to buy

Students live where they study: District VIII and District IX for Semmelweis and Corvinus, close to metro lines M3 and M4. These districts also have lower entry prices than the city centre.

What to buy

A one- or two-bedroom apartment in a well-kept building, close to a metro or tram stop. Two bedrooms let your child share with a classmate now, and widen the choice of tenants later.

Buying from abroad

EU citizens buy in Hungary on the same terms as Hungarians; buyers from outside the EU need a permit. Our investment FAQ answers the most frequent questions, and our guide to investing in Budapest explains each step.

After the degree

When your child leaves Budapest, we find the next tenant and manage the apartment for you.

Frequently asked questions

Is it better to buy or to rent for five or six years of studies?
It depends on your budget and on prices at the time, but over a long degree the rent paid adds up to a significant sum. An adviser can compare both options for your situation.
Can a foreigner buy an apartment in Hungary?
Yes. EU citizens buy on the same terms as Hungarians. Buyers from outside the EU need a permit; see our investment FAQ.
Who looks after the apartment while we live abroad?
Our property management team: rent collection, repairs, tenants and monthly reporting, in English or French.
