A model for an individual resale of a residential apartment or house, not a Revenue Service assessment. The clock runs from Public Registry registration, not the preliminary contract. Improvement costs that raise the cost base are not a separate line — fold them into the purchase price. Commercial property is a different rule (20%). Commission is a market band. The notary usually sits on the buyer calculator.
