Six checks before signing
- Ownership and encumbrances — the land registry extract: is the seller really the (sole) owner, and are there mortgages, easements or litigation notes?
- Cadastre vs. land registry — do the parcel number, area and shape match in both records? Mismatches are fixable, but before the purchase, not after.
- Boundaries on the ground — does the fence match the real boundary? Marking boundaries before buying is cheaper than a dispute after.
- Zoning in the spatial plan — building land, agricultural or mixed? This decides whether and what you may build.
- Access road — does the parcel reach a public road, or does it depend on the neighbour's goodwill?
- Utilities — where are the nearest power, water and sewage connections, and do third-party lines cross the parcel?
Why not trust your gut
Most problems are invisible to the eye: a parcel can look perfect and yet have no access, 300 m² of mismatch, or a power line corridor. Everything listed is checked in official records — quickly and with documents in hand.
Pre-purchase check package
For buyers we run a complete parcel check with a written report: records, spatial plan, boundaries and access. The price is fixed and known in advance — and in negotiations the investment usually pays back many times over.
