When do you need an energy performance certificate in Hungary?

If you are looking for a home in Hungary, make sure to ask the seller or the landlord for the energy performance certificate to get a better idea of what living in your new home will be like, and how much you should expect to pay for utilities.

Invest in a real estate fund and get Hungarian residency for 10 years

In the Hungarian golden visa program, one of the options that lets you and your family get EU residency and a Schengen visa for 10 years is a EUR 250,000 investment in a real estate fund. But how does that work?
