The Acquisition of Real Estate in Denmark

A house on the Danish coast, a city apartment in Copenhagen, or an investment in Scandinavian stability-the dream of owning property in Denmark is alive and well. But foreigners looking to purchase real estate in this orderly, digital, and law-abiding country are entering a market with clear rules that are strictly enforced. This book offers a comprehensive, up-to-date, and well-founded overview of all legal, tax, practical, and social aspects of real estate acquisition by non-Danes. It makes a clear distinction between the rights and obligations of EU citizens and third-country nationals, explains approval requirements, tax implications, special features of the Danish land registry system, and the role of lawyers, brokers, and authorities. Clear, structured and with an eye for what is relevant, the book provides guidance for anyone who is not just looking for a property but wants to build a permanent, legally secure foundation in Denmark - whether as a place to live, a retreat or an investment. An indispensable guide for expats, investors, lawyers, real estate professionals, and anyone who is serious about making a home in the north. Bremen University Press has published over 5,000 specialist books in various languages since 2005.
