In the initial stage of property acquisition, our due diligence process focuses on uncovering any legal constraints or existing encumbrances that could affect your rights as a buyer. We examine land registry entries, zoning certificates and municipal authorizations to detect restrictions such as easements, building limitations or pending litigation. This rigorous assessment provides you with a clear understanding of obligations and safeguards your interests by identifying potential obstacles before significant commitments are made.
After confirming the property’s legal status, our team drafts and customizes the purchase contract to reflect the specific terms of your agreement, including price, payment schedule and conditions precedent. We negotiate clauses to address contingencies like condition reports or corrective measures, helping to establish clear obligations for both parties. By aligning contract language with Swiss legal standards, we reduce ambiguities and set a reliable foundation for a transparent transaction.
During the closing phase, we coordinate closely with Swiss notaries to arrange signature appointments and secure timely authentication of documents. We prepare all necessary forms for land registry entry, verify compliance with cantonal regulations and oversee the transfer of ownership records. Our team follows up on notification duties, ensuring that municipal authorities and registry offices have accurate updates. This careful orchestration minimizes administrative delays and completes the acquisition process smoothly.
