Review of the acquisition contract

Real estate purchase transactions must be concluded through a written agreement: the real estate purchase contract or acquisition contract (compromise, protocol, authentic deed, share transfer, etc.). The buyer initially makes an offer which the seller may choose to accept or reject. The purpose of the document is to outline what the buyer and seller must do before the property transfer takes place.
Coordination of the parties
The attorney acting as a mandatary in real estate transactions is a legal professional who is authorized by a client to assist them in the purchase or sale of a property. They are responsible for ensuring the proper execution of the various stages of the real estate transaction and safeguarding the interests of their client.
At FRELA, our attorneys play a central role in coordinating the parties involved in a real estate transaction, including notaries, real estate agencies, and clients. In this capacity, our main function is to ensure efficient and secure management of the transaction, ensuring that all legal aspects of the transaction are properly handled and our clients’ interests are protected.
Drafting of urgent agreements
FRELA assists you in drafting the content of your urgent agreements.
If you have tight deadlines, it is crucial to secure and optimize the drafting of your urgent agreements to your advantage. Real estate purchase transactions are concluded by a written agreement: the real estate purchase contract or acquisition contract (compromise, protocol, authentic deed, share transfer, etc.).
The contract must include a number of rights and obligations for both the buyer and the seller.
