What Do Lawyers Do?
There are common checks of the property for a secure purchase that solicitors and lawyers do.
1. Legal Research of the Property
Property buying may vary from country to country. There are not the same rules and standards in every country. As you are not purchasing frequently property in Turkey, we advise you to purchase by a trusted estate agency that has several offices and long years of experience like Antalya Homes.
The most important part of buying real estate is to contact the correct party and understanding that the seller is selling the correct property that he is showing you. Lawyers may guarantee these issues and your money with a Due Diligence Report.
a) When you decide to purchase an estate solicitor makes the initial checks in the Title Deed registration office to cover if there is:
• Basement
• Mortgage debt
• Lien
• Tax debt
• Other debts and charges
• If it is freehold or not
• Checking the ownership fact of the property as written on the title deed
b) Solicitors also examine these related licenses:
• Building license
• Planning permits
2. Reservation Contract and Deposit Payment
The reservation contract secures the property in the client's name and confirms the agreed sales price and terms. It also shows that the payment made as a deposit payment secures the agreed terms on the contract.
3. Property Purchasing Contract in Turkey
• If there is a reservation contract that includes the agreed terms by the parties the solicitor shall draft the purchase contract according to this.
• If there has not been a prepared contract and agreed terms the solicitor shall draft the purchase contract according to the satisfaction of all parties with legitimizing their requests.
• If there has already been a drafted contract, the solicitor shall review the contract to ensure that does not damage the rights of the client and is fully legal.
