How to transfer real estate safely

‍

Real estate registration is essential to guarantee legal certainty and protection of rights to the property. In this regard, it is recommended to follow the legal procedures established by the Real Estate Registry of your region, presenting all the documents that prove the legitimacy of the acquisition of the property, collection of fees, among others.

Failure to comply with this important action may become an impediment when selling inheritances, trust guarantees and share capital.

Purchase and Sale Agreement: If you are buying or selling real estate, it is essential to enter into a purchase and sale agreement, which generally details the terms of the transaction, including the price, payment terms, and any other relevant clauses.

Property Documentation: Make sure that all documents related to the property are in order. This may include deeds, property records, negative certificates, and other documents that prove ownership and legal status of the property.

Payment of Taxes and Fees: Check that all taxes and fees associated with the property are up to date. This may include paying property taxes, municipal fees, and other tax obligations.

Deed of Transfer: Depending on local law, it may be necessary to prepare a transfer deed to formalize the change of ownership.
