Risks that should be assessed before signing
Some transactions may appear straightforward, but often involve legal aspects that, if not identified in time, can lead to complications or even future liabilities.
These are some of the issues we commonly detect at an early stage:
- Undisclosed encumbrances, easements or planning restrictions
- Missing permits or unauthorised land use
- Vague or unbalanced clauses that weaken your legal position
- Mistakes in tax withholdings or pending declarations
- Breaches affecting payment terms or the delivery of the property
Sellers may also face post-closing liabilities, such as claims for defects or hidden damage, or consequences arising from tax obligations that were not properly fulfilled.
This is why we approach each transaction with a comprehensive legal perspective, anticipating contingencies and structuring the process so you can make confident, well-informed decisions.
