REAL ESTATE LAW

- You might be buying a property burdened with charges, encumbrances and other debts.

- You might be buying a property that has never been registered.

- You might be buying a property with a perfect title deed, legally registered. But this property is not the one that you have viewed. The description and registration deeds at the date of the deed may turn out to belong to a different property altogether.

- You might be handing over a deposit to someone purporting to be the owner, but subsequently this person disappears without trace.

- You might be buying a property with tenants still living in it but, unbeknown to you, these are legally registered tenants who are entitled to stay until the expiration of the term of their rental contract, or to demand a sum of money as compensation in order to make them leave.

A lawyer is not only obliged to observe strict professional standards, he will also receive payment regardless of where and from whom you make your purchase.

Conversely, the seller of a property will only receive his money if the buyer purchases his property, and therefore will be unconcerned about what happens next.

This situation is almost identical for real estate agents. They do not get paid unless a given property is sold, and this fact often strongly influences their impartiality.
