Document background
The Deed of Sale of Real Property is a fundamental legal document in Dutch real estate transactions, required whenever real property ownership is transferred between parties. This document, which must be executed as a notarial deed under Dutch law, serves as the legal foundation for property transfers in the Netherlands. It is used in both residential and commercial property transactions, containing crucial information about the property, parties involved, purchase price, and various legal warranties and declarations. The deed must comply with requirements set forth in the Dutch Civil Code and related legislation, and its execution is strictly regulated through the notarial system. The document's importance extends beyond the immediate transaction, as it forms part of the public record through the Land Registry (Kadaster) and affects future property dealings.
