The Home Purchase Agreement serves as the primary legal instrument for residential property transactions in Belgium, requiring careful consideration of both federal and regional legal frameworks. This document is essential when transferring residential property ownership and must comply with the Belgian Civil Code, the Property Law Reform Act 2020, and various regional regulations. It typically follows the preliminary agreement (compromis de vente/verkoopcompromis) and precedes the notarial deed, incorporating mandatory certificates and disclosures, including energy performance, electrical installation, and soil certificates. The agreement must address specific Belgian requirements such as registration duties, notarial involvement, and regional variations in property regulations. It should be drafted to accommodate both Dutch and French language requirements in bilingual regions, while ensuring all mandatory disclosures and protections for both parties are included.
