In some countries, you can buy or rent a house in bitcoins. But what are the tax and administrative implications?
In France, you can, in theory, buy with BTC, but you have to pay taxes and notary fees in euros.
Since you also have to pay capital gains tax and (unless I'm mistaken) prove the origin of the bitcoins.
How is it in your country ?
You can buy a house with bitcoin directly or indirectly and it depends on legality status of Bitcoin in your country. Usually, cashing out bitcoin first and use fiat currency to buy a house is a safer method. Purchasing a house directly with Bitcoin contains some risk, firstly legality status, secondly tax reports, but another risk that is so important, is irreversible Bitcoin transaction.
If by any reason, you were scammed but already made your Bitcoin transaction to a trade partner, you lost your bitcoin almost forever, except if you can file scam report to police for help. You can do it or can not do it, and it depends on legality status of Bitcoin and trades via bitcoin in your country.
