Since the “Compromis de Vente” is signed, the Notaire will check records and documentation regarding the property and land, such as land boundaries or right of ways. The Notaire is responsible to make sure the necessary searches are done; that the termite, lead and asbestos inspection reports are complete and available for the buyer’s inspection, and to inform the buyer of any servitude rights or the new laws regarding septic systems. A “Notaire” is legally bound by law to act in the interest of both parties and must disclose to buyers and sellers all the legal requirements prior to a sale. It generally takes 2 to 3 months to complete this process.

 

Both the buyer and the seller will then meet at the Notaire’s office for the signature of the “Contrat de Vente” (deed of sale). You will be given the keys of the property on that day.
