Real property law

If you want to buy real estate or sell or transfer a property, you will often find yourself with a seemingly unmanageable pile of documents. Here you will find, among other things, useful information to help you better understand the partition declaration, the business plan and the minutes of the last condominium owners‘ meetings. The latter in particular often contains valuable information about the „climate“ in the condominium owners‘ association and about any upcoming measures (which could be costly, for example, string renovation). If it looks like you might be about to lose your home, we will take countermeasures and do everything possible to help you keep your property.

How do we achieve your goals as specialists for real property law?

We help you to pick out the relevant information from all the documents and to sort them out and make sense of them. We also check the purchase agreement and advise you on whether it is balanced and fair, on changes that may be necessary or even risks that may exist. If desired, we will accompany you through the entire purchase or sale process and ensure that the transaction is completed as smoothly and quickly as possible. If enforcement measures or even an auction sale are imminent, we will examine the legal situation and then try to reach an amicable and cost-saving settlement with the other party.
