FAQ real estate notary agreements
Do I have to pay real estate income tax (ImmoEst)?
Yes, in many cases, real estate income tax (ImmoEst) is payable when selling real estate. Our notary's office will check whether you have to pay this tax or whether you meet the requirements for the so-called primary residence exemption. We take care of reporting the primary residence exemption or calculating the real estate income tax, keeping it safe in an escrow account, and paying it to the tax office on time.
This way, we ensure that all tax obligations are correctly fulfilled when selling real estate. With our experience in real estate law and tax law, we guarantee legally compliant and transparent processing.
Who can help me delete rights in the land register?
Our notary's office will take care of removing any rights that are no longer relevant from the land register, such as liens, residential rights, or encumbrances and prohibitions on sale. This ensures that your land register extract is always up to date, legally compliant, and unambiguous.
How long does it take to draw up a purchase agreement?
The duration depends on the available documents and the complexity of the real estate transaction. As a rule, we draw up the purchase agreement within a few days as soon as we have all the necessary documents. This ensures fast, legally compliant, and reliable processing.
What is a purchase offer and is it binding?
A purchase offer is a written offer to buy a property. It becomes binding as soon as it is accepted by the other party. Our notary's office will check for you whether all legal requirements have been met, thus ensuring a legally secure basis for your property purchase.
