3. Booking the apartment and Signing the Sales Purchase Agreement:
After we make sure that the property has:
The same amount of expertise value as being sold for.
Property is debt free (because the property with the debt from the bank is saleable)
Right terms and conditions are offered in the Agreement
Now you find your dream home so now what?
- We negotiate until we push the price down which is part of our main service to get you the best deal
- Then we move towards the paying booking amount which is generally 1% and sometimes 2% of the value of the property depending upon the developer or property owner
- The booking amount is valid for 14 days which means that after 14 days the developer has the right to keep the amount of the booking and before 14 days the customer has the right to get a refund of the deposit in case of change plans
Further, we move towards the signing agreement:
- We ensure that the contract is always fair and in favor of the customer, specifically when the property is under construction
- We make sure that the agreement mentions the right of the customer if the apartment is delayed; therefore, the customer must be paid the penalty
- Normally the rule is that customer pays the down payment within 14 days but if he/she plans to delay because of arranging the money then we make sure the date of payment is mentioned in the contract which will secure customer rights
- Create easiness in the payment plans and more details likewise.
4. After Signing Agreement Transfer, Title Deed, and Citizenship:
