Document background
The Cash Sale Real Estate Contract is a fundamental legal document used in the Netherlands for property transactions where the purchase is made without mortgage financing. This contract type is essential for documenting the agreement between parties before the mandatory notarial deed of transfer is executed. It must comply with Dutch Civil Code requirements, particularly Books 3, 5, and 7, and includes crucial elements such as property details, purchase price, transfer conditions, and warranties. The document is typically used in situations where buyers have immediate access to funds and prefer a straightforward transaction without financing contingencies. It forms the basis for the notary's preparation of the final transfer deed and must include all relevant information required for property registration with the Dutch Land Registry (Kadaster).
