The questions we are asked
Frequently asked questions.
How much time passes between the preliminary contract and the deed of sale?
On average two to three months, the time needed for the statutory periods to expire and to gather all the documents (planning, diagnostic reports, financing).
What is the purpose of the preliminary sale contract (compromis de vente)?
It records the parties’ agreement and the terms of the sale (price, timescales, conditions precedent such as obtaining the loan) before the authentic deed is signed.
Which diagnostic reports are mandatory to sell?
It depends on the property and its location (energy performance, asbestos, lead, electricity, gas, termites, etc.). We tell you precisely which ones apply to your situation.
