Legal and technical assistance during the purchasing phase

The necessity for preventative legal assistance from the negotiation phase onwards arises in order to:

• avoid the signing of binding documents with legal effects which are not known in depth
• avoid potenticial property litigation (costly, stressful, risky)
• avoid the lack of reliability of some sellers and real estate operators 
• avoid large unforeseen compliance costs after purchasing a property

We therefore strongly recommend and are able to offer assistance with the following procedure:

Phase A: Due Diligence

1. Legal DD

• Assessment of the object by a lawyer
• Assessment and potential securing of acquisition titles
• Verification of real estate registration / mortgage registration / other records
  
• Identification and assessment of any potential administrative risk concerning the property
  
• Assessment of the legal aspects concerning the construction state of the property: (building permit, etc.)
  
• Potential proposals for an eventual solution, etc.

2. Technical DD

• Tour of the property by a trusted technician
• Assessment of compliance with the cadastral and urban planning records
• Check of necessary permits and authorisations
• Check the connection to services and the status of utilities

Phase B: Realisation of the purchase

1. Determining the purchase procedure and potential signing of the reservation contract
   
2. Signing of a Future Purchase Agreement Contract (if applicable) and subsequent Purchase Contract at a notary's office
