How to Buy Your Home with Bitcoin
From Satoshis to Square Meters: The Practical Guide to Buying Real Estate with Bitcoin
By Francisco Cordoba Otalora and Carlos Hernandez
Every serious Bitcoiner eventually hits the same wall. You have sound money. You want to deploy some of it into real property. And you discover that no notary in the European Union will formalize a deed in Bitcoin. Every real Bitcoin property purchase involves a conversion somewhere in the chain. The question is who does it, when, under what legal framework, and what the paper trail looks like.
This book teaches the honest mechanics. It is written for readers who already understand what Bitcoin is and who hold meaningful amounts of it. We do not explain what a private key is. We do explain what a certidão predial is and what happens when a Portuguese notary asks where the euros came from.
What You Will Learn
- Why every EU notary records a euro price, and the three real paths a Bitcoin property deal can take
- How to build a source-of-funds paper trail that notaries and banks actually accept
- Portugal's full buyer playbook: NIF, IMT brackets, IMI, stamp duty, IFICI (the NHR successor), and the four required legal documents
- Spain's autonomous-region tax variations, the NIE, Modelo 721 crypto reporting, and the MiCA-era CASP question
- A decision framework for six other jurisdictions: UAE, Switzerland, Malta, El Salvador, Paraguay, and Georgia
- Step-by-step guidance from offer to deed registration, including the crypto-specific challenges at each stage
- Tax realities: FATCA, FBAR, CRS, Modelo 721, and what residency changes actually solve
- What goes wrong: fake escrows, notary refusals, frozen bank accounts, price crashes during conversion, and the seller who suddenly wants cash under the table
- A 90-day action plan and a full walkthrough of the Caenhebo platform
