Document background
The House Sales Contract On For Sale By Owner (FSBO) is specifically designed for use in the Netherlands when private individuals wish to conduct property transactions without real estate agent involvement. This document type has gained increasing relevance as more sellers seek to manage their own property sales while ensuring legal compliance. The contract must adhere to Dutch Civil Code requirements and includes mandatory elements such as notarial deed preparation, cooling-off period provisions, and energy performance certification. It's particularly important in the Dutch context where all property transfers must be executed through a notary, regardless of being FSBO. The document includes comprehensive provisions for property description, payment terms, transfer conditions, and seller warranties, while incorporating specific Dutch legal requirements for property transactions. It serves as a crucial tool for private sellers and buyers while ensuring their transaction meets all legal requirements under Dutch law.
