Document background
The Home Selling Contract is a fundamental legal document used in Belgian real estate transactions for the sale and transfer of residential properties. It serves as the primary agreement between sellers and buyers, incorporating all mandatory elements required by Belgian federal and regional legislation. This document is essential when transferring residential property ownership in Belgium and must be executed in accordance with the Belgian Civil Code and regional housing regulations. The contract includes mandatory disclosures, certificates (such as energy performance and electrical compliance), and provisions for the notarial deed. It addresses crucial elements such as property description, price, payment terms, warranties, and completion requirements, while ensuring compliance with local urban planning and environmental regulations. The document is typically prepared before the final notarial deed and serves as the basis for the property transfer process.
