During the due diligence process, FlatDealLaw conducts exhaustive checks on the property’s legal and administrative status. We obtain and scrutinize land registry records, historical deed transfers and any existing liens to ensure clear title. Our experts also verify planning permissions, zoning regulations and any easements registered against the property. If needed, we instruct certified surveyors or engineers to confirm boundaries or identify planning irregularities. By coordinating directly with municipal authorities and public registries, we gather official certifications and resolutions that might affect your rights. Throughout this stage, we maintain transparent communication, updating you on findings and potential legal considerations that may require amendment in the contract or additional authorizations. This thorough approach minimizes unexpected obligations and streamlines the path to formal notarization.
We coordinate with notaries to execute the deed of sale, handle registration submissions, and confirm the transfer of ownership in official registers.
