If you live here in the UK and own a property in Germany that you wish to sell or you want to purchase one, you will need the services of a lawyer. The firm you choose to help you achieve your desired outcome can make all the difference between it being a simple or complex transaction.
Thanks to our relationship with German Law firm, Graf and Partners, we are in a unique position to help you deal with legal matters in Germany, from the comfort of your UK home.
Although we can handle all aspects of property transactions, here or in Germany, it is always good to understand what is involved. There are important differences you need to know about real estate law in Germany and how it applies to you and we can help you navigate the entire process.
Comparing the two legal systems and how they relate to property transactions, there is little common ground. Under German property law, the individual listed as the owner in the land register (‘Grundbuch’) is the actual owner and so no title search is required.
If you are interested in buying or selling property in Germany, we have the experience to make it a relatively stress-free transaction, with expertise on hand here in the UK and in Germany to limit your involvement. For more details of the services we offer, please get in touch today.
