FAQ

Frequently asked questions about the office.

What exactly does a Real Estate Audit cover and when should it be requested?

Real Estate Due Diligence is a thorough analysis of documents aimed at ensuring the complete security of the transaction. It covers three pillars: the Property (analysis of the property registration and debts), the Seller (individual or legal entity, to identify liabilities and lawsuits), and the Transaction (contract risks). It should always be requested before any high-value negotiation, such as buying, selling, investing in auctions, or entering into corporate partnerships.

What is the difference between an audit and document verification done by a broker or notary office?

The real estate agent and the notary's office perform the formal verification of the documents. The legal audit, conducted by the lawyer, involves interpretation and strategic analysis. The lawyer identifies not only what is formally stated in the documents, but also the hidden risks and legal impacts of debts or lawsuits against the seller that may affect the property (such as fraud against creditors or fraudulent transfer of assets).

Can a Real Estate Audit protect the buyer against "Fraud in Execution"?

Yes, this is one of the most important protections. Fraudulent Execution occurs when the seller disposes of their assets (the property) knowing that they are being sued in court, harming their creditors. The audit verifies legal actions against the seller and, if the sale is high-risk, we advise on the creation of legal mechanisms for the buyer's defense against this allegation.

What happens if the audit identifies problems with the property or the seller?

If the audit identifies a problem, the lawyer not only points it out but also proposes a strategic solution. This may include requiring additional guarantees, withholding payments, negotiating debt settlements, or, in high-risk cases, advising on suspending the purchase to prevent much greater losses.

Is due diligence required for properties acquired at auction?

Yes, it is absolutely essential. In auctions, due diligence must be carried out before bidding and focuses on analyzing the Auction Notice and the Judicial/Extrajudicial Process. This ensures that the investor is aware of all outstanding debts (property tax/condominium fees) and the need or difficulty of carrying out the eviction (taking possession), transforming the investment into a safe and profitable business.
