Document background
The Purchase Agreement For House serves as the primary contractual document for residential property transactions in Belgium. It is used when transferring ownership of residential real estate from seller to buyer, whether they are private individuals or corporate entities. The agreement must comply with Belgian federal and regional legislation, including the Civil Code, Mortgage Law, and specific regional housing regulations. It requires notarial involvement for final execution and must include mandatory elements such as energy performance certificates, soil certificates, and urban planning documentation. This document forms the basis for the subsequent notarial deed and is essential for property registration, tax purposes, and securing mortgage financing. It protects all parties' interests by clearly defining the transaction terms, conditions, and responsibilities while ensuring compliance with Belgian legal requirements.
