We will carry out a full property check BEFORE you even sign an option to buy contract. REMEMBER. If you paid a deposit and afterwards you refuse to carry on with the purchase, you WILL loose your deposit.
We will revise the lawfulness of the house or estate you intent to buy and check the contract of sale for unfair clauses.
We will take every step to guarantee that your property is eventually registered before a notary and in the Property Registry Office.
If you intend to purchase a house under construction, you should know that you have a right to demand a copy of the approved technical project and of the building license, as well as a copy of the certificate of fitness for habitation. This measure is necessary to ensure that the construction company has observed all the legal requirements established by the city council.
Likewise, it is necessary to check the identity of the real owner of the estate/lot on which the property is going to be built, and whether or not the said owner coincides with the construction company signing the contract of sale.
Finally, it is important to be aware of the fact that the construction company is bound to guarantee all the money you are paying in advanced for your property. We would like to stress to importance of this point since, if you then choose to claim those payments, you will be guaranteed the refunding of the whole amount of money you invested, which is why our Firm always claims the said guarantee.
If, eventually, you are not handed over your property before the deadline stipulated in the contract of sale, you can either cancel the contract or demand a compensation for the damages caused by the delay.
