When you purchase real estate, <strong>subscription to these services does not automatically transfer to the new owner<\/strong>. Taking care of the utility transfer is not normally included among the tasks of the lawyer handling the property purchase, and when the sale is completed, the previous owner loses their rights for property management. As a result, <strong>you will have to take care of utility transfer<\/strong> on your own \u2013 or with the assistance of a trustee like Helpers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Utility transfer is done separately for each service provider<\/strong>. Sometimes they have information available in English, but if not, you will need to find the relevant process descriptions in Hungarian and rely on a translation app. In that case, look for the phrases \u201c<strong>k\u00f6zm\u0171\u00e1t\u00edr\u00e1s<\/strong>\u201d or \u201c<strong>felhaszn\u00e1l\u00f3v\u00e1lt\u00e1s<\/strong>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"utilities\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Utilities in Hungary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hungarian homes typically have the following utilities, each taken care of by a different provider:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>electricity<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>natural gas<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>water<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>wastewater<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>waste management<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>central heating<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>internet \/ tv \/ landline phone<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Regarding these services, it is useful to keep in mind the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Water and wastewater<\/strong> are usually managed by separate utility providers. However, wastewater services are often billed based on water consumption, so the same meter reading will be used by both providers (meaning that you will need to read and submit data only once).<br><br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Telecommunication providers often have <strong>bundles that include internet, cable tv, and a landline phone number<\/strong>. However, you are allowed to subscribe to these separately, or you can subscribe only for the internet access if you don\u2019t need cable tv or a landline phone.<br><br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When you move into a new home, you can <strong>keep your old landline phone number<\/strong> if you want it, you just need to request this.<br><br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If your new property is in an apartment building, you will probably have to pay a <strong>building management fee<\/strong> (also referred to as \u201ccommon cost\u201d, a mirror translation of \u201c<strong>k\u00f6z\u00f6s k\u00f6lts\u00e9g<\/strong>\u201d). Depending on how utilities are managed in the building, this fee may or may not include water, wastewater, or waste management. <strong>Make sure to ask the seller what is included<\/strong> before closing the deal, then confirm this with the building manager.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Depending on where the property is located, <strong>there may be one or more providers available for each service<\/strong>. Regarding internet and telecommunications, there is a high chance you will be able to choose from several providers. Regarding other services, it is possible that there is only one provider, and you will have to register with that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"handover\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Handover and utility transfer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you take possession of your new property, <strong>handover should be documented<\/strong>. This should include noting the relevant meter identification numbers and the various meter readings, and the <strong>handover report should be signed by both the seller and the buyer<\/strong> (or their representatives). These records will help establish which party is responsible for consumption before and after the handover, and calculate the seller\u2019s final invoice as well as the buyer\u2019s first invoice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Utility transfer will have to be initiated with each provider separately<\/strong>. It is best to take care of it as soon as possible, but it should be done <strong>within 15 calendar days after handover<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Processes are slightly different for each provider, but these days they are <strong>typically available online<\/strong>. You will probably need to <strong>create an account<\/strong>, although many utility providers also allow access through <a href=\"https:\/\/helpers.hu\/fa\/%d8%ae%d8%af%d9%85%d8%a7%d8%aa-%d9%85%d8%a7%d9%84%db%8c-%d9%88-%d8%ad%d8%b3%d8%a7%d8%a8%d8%af%d8%a7%d8%b1%db%8c\/the-client-gate-your-gateway-to-hungarian-electronic-administration\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u00dcgyf\u00e9lkapu<\/a> (or \u201cClient Gate\u201d), the Hungarian gateway to electronic administration. Once logged in, <strong>find the option for the transfer<\/strong>, and upload the relevant documents when prompted. These documents typically include the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Real estate purchase agreement<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Handover report<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Photos of the metering devices upon handover<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Valid photo ID<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Power of attorney (if an authorized representative is handling the process)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Upon registration, you might want to <strong>set up online billing<\/strong>, so you can receive your monthly invoices online instead of at your physical address. Online billing is usually free of charge; you might even get a discount for \u201cgoing green\u201d. When you receive your first bill, you might also get a <strong>separate bill for the transfer itself<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Pro tip<\/strong>: Once you have completed the utility transfer with each provider, you might want to move online utility management to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dijnet.hu\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">dijnet.hu<\/a>. This is a site that allows you to <strong>manage most of your utility bills from various providers in one place<\/strong> \u2013 all online and free of charge. The interface is available in English as well as in Hungarian. However, unfortunately, not every provider has an agreement with D\u00edjnet, so you might not get <em>everything <\/em>in one place.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"rentals\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Utility transfer for future rentals<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you intend to rent out your new property, you should still <strong>transfer utilities to your name<\/strong>. Utilities usually have monthly fees even if there is no one currently living at the property, and you are expected to pay those. <strong>Once you acquire a tenant, you may decide whether you want to incorporate utility fees into the rent or invoice them separately<\/strong>. The only utility that might be on your tenant\u2019s name is the one for telecommunications (internet \/ tv \/ landline); otherwise utility contracts typically remain with the owner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"challenges\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Challenges for foreign property owners<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The biggest challenge for foreign property owners in Hungary regarding utility transfer is that official documents are often available <strong>only in Hungarian<\/strong> (although there have been improvements over the last decade or so). You will have to coordinate administration with <strong>several utility providers<\/strong> which all have slightly different processes, all this with a <strong>tight deadline<\/strong>. If you are abroad, you will also need a <strong>trusted representative<\/strong> who can take care of everything for you based on a power of attorney (POA). Moreover, you will need to get familiar with <strong>local billing arrangements<\/strong> to make sure that invoices reach the correct person and they are paid on time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"services\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Service packages for buyers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Helpers offers local presence and local know-how to foreign property buyers.
