Argentina (AR) — civil law.
Nothing on this page describes United States practice. There is no certificate sold to an investor, no administrative sale, and no post-sale redemption window in Argentina. If you arrived carrying US assumptions, read falsos-amigos first.
Costos de la subasta
The hammer price is not the price.
| Component | Notes |
|---|---|
| Hammer price | Paid as [[conceptos/sena-y-saldo-de-precio |
Comisión del martillero | Ordinarily payable by the buyer, on top. Provincial scale + court order. needs_verification per jurisdiction |

Impuesto de sellos | Provincial; applicability at a judicial sale is needs_verification |
| Registration | Oficio judicial and registry fees |
Surviving expensas | On a propiedad horizontal unit, the big one — see expensas-y-el-adquirente-en-subasta |
| Recovering possession | [[conceptos/desalojo-y-lanzamiento |
| Condition | Bought substantially as-is, after a limited exhibición |
Do not carry a percentage across provinces.
Commission scales, stamp treatment and court charges are set jurisdiction by jurisdiction. A figure verified in CABA tells you nothing about Mendoza. Every percentage on this wiki is either sourced to a jurisdiction or flagged
needs_verification.
Building a bid
Work backwards from a resale or hold value you actually believe, then subtract: commission,
charges, registration, the expensas arrears certificate, an occupancy allowance, a
condition allowance, and the cost of money over a timeline measured in months rather than
weeks. What remains is your maximum bid.
Currency
The base and the price are in pesos (ARS). Your valuation is probably in US
dollars. Do the conversion explicitly, at a stated rate and date, and state which rate.
