Hello @reef-full. Today @Lee and I had a call with the notary’s assistant to go over the compromis. Everything seems in order and there is nothing we need to do ahaead of the signature (except pay another 25,000 EUR – more on that tomorrow).
Two nice surprises:
- The compromis allows for an “escape route”: we (or the seller) could still pull out of the sale, paying 10% of the purchase price + notary expenses. Of course, this would still be a colossal waste of money, and we will not do it, but it’s nice to know it exists.
- Since the seller is a commercial company, and we are not, we are entitled to some extra protection under Belgian consumer protection laws.
Forwards in all directions!
