When the owner is outside Ukraine

A sale is possible without a long stay in Ukraine

Many Ukrainian citizens living abroad need to sell property that remains in Ukraine. The owner may be unable to travel personally or stay in the country for the weeks or months a conventional sale can require.

Obtaining missing documents, settling debts, removing arrests or encumbrances, finding a buyer and arranging the transaction all take time. We offer several approaches depending on the documents, the property and the owner’s circumstances.

Three possible scenarios

Choose a suitable sale format

We first review your circumstances and documents, then agree on a realistic course of action.

01

A short visit for completion

If you can travel for completion, we handle the preparation and marketing in advance. You arrive on an agreed date when the documents and buyer are ready.

  • We arrange missing documents and help resolve debts, arrests and encumbrances.
  • We prepare the property for sale, find a buyer and coordinate the notarial appointment.
  • By agreement, we assist with tickets, meeting, hotel, banking, transfers and remittance of the proceeds.
02

Sale under a power of attorney

If travel is impossible, a power of attorney may be executed at a Ukrainian embassy or consulate, or before a notary in the country where you live. Once the properly executed document is received, our representative organises the documents, buyer search and sale-and-purchase transaction. The proceeds are delivered using a lawful method agreed in advance.

A document executed before a foreign notary may require an apostille or consular legalisation and a certified Ukrainian translation, depending on the country of issue.

03

Urgent direct purchase

If funds are needed as quickly as possible, we can consider purchasing the property directly on agreed terms without searching for another buyer. When a personal visit is possible, completion may take one or two days after the documents and property are ready.

Receiving the proceeds

Bank settlement and money transfer

If necessary, opening an account in Ukraine and crediting the proceeds when the sale agreement is signed can be considered. The exact settlement and onward transfer method is agreed with the owner, notary and bank in advance.

Remote account opening depends on the selected bank, client identification and financial-monitoring requirements.
