The document that concludes the sale and transfers ownership
from the seller to the buyer is the title
deed.
The title deed is a public act, which is
stipulated before a notary, and serves to fine-tune the agreements
already reached in the preliminary contract.
For it to be valid, it must contain precise information and
details on the dates, agreements and the parties in question.
The importance of the notary in the title deed
The notary, acting as a public official, makes the deed of sale
legal and clarifies what exactly it entails.
When the title deed is reached it is good
practice to let the buyer choose the notary. However, if a house is
yet to be built, it is advisable to trust the seller's notary,
who, already being in possession of all documents, may act in a
fraction of the time.
