ESTATE AGENT

As a real estate transaction agent, SELARL Benoît LEGRU can help you buy a property in complete security, whether by signing a preliminary contract, a promise of sale or a preliminary sales agreement, with or without conditions precedent, or a reservation contract prior to buying off-plan, etc.

Co-ownership management

 

SELARL Benoît LEGRU also assists you with the management of co-ownership of built-up properties, governed by the Act of 10 July 1965 and the Decree of 17 March 1967, as amended by the ALUR Act of 17 March 2014 and the ELAN Act of 23 November 2018.

 

The status of co-ownership of built-up properties is the source of a great deal of litigation, whether in relation to general meetings, co-ownership regulations, the role of the managing agent, the rules governing work on co-ownership properties or the apportionment of co-ownership charges.

 

More than two-thirds of co-ownership disputes arise from unpaid service charges.

CONSTRUCTION LITIGATION

The procedures and litigation involved in construction are particularly complex and technical, and require the assistance of a professional with a thorough understanding of construction law.

  The most common areas of disagreement are :

  • the guarantee of perfect completion

  • the guarantee of proper operation

  • ten-year guarantee

  • contractual liability for intermediate damage

  • the builder's obligation to provide information and advice

  • late delivery

  • future state of completion sales.

URBANISM

When it comes to town planning, we advise you on the management of town planning permits (planning permission, prior declarations, etc.) and also on more specific regulations, such as classified installations for environmental protection.

 

Compliance with planning regulations can be restrictive for many people.

 

For example, article L111-3 of the French Town Planning Code states that "In the absence of a local town planning plan, any equivalent town planning document or local map, construction may only be authorised in the urbanised areas of the municipality".

 

In practice, this legislation has given rise to a great deal of litigation, since it requires the location of each new building to be known (whether or not it is located in an urbanised area).

 

SELARL Benoît LEGRU can help you obtain the planning documents you need for any building project.
