The concern
80 pages of contract and condominium by-laws, without us understanding the implications.
What we did
Comprehensive support from contract review to a 2-year warranty.
What was the goal?
Move-in without any legal or structural surprises.
What was the initial situation?
Buying your first apartment is exciting, but it also involves a lot of paperwork that can be difficult for laypeople to understand. The purchase contract, the condominium regulations, the easements, the construction specification: everything has legal and structural implications that you should be aware of before signing.
They explained the 80 pages to us in such a way that we knew what we were signing.
First-time buyer family, Zurich region
What have we accomplished?
I accompanied the family through all phases. Together we went through the purchase contract, page by page; I explained it clearly, clarified the floor plan, and explained the most important easements in plain language. I carefully prepared, conducted, and documented the handover, and any outstanding issues were renegotiated objectively with the general contractor.
What was the result?
In the end, the family had no more unanswered questions, but rather an apartment they could look forward to. With a complete list of defects, clear deadlines, and the reassuring feeling that everything had gone according to plan.
