Can you make all the same checks that you would make in Britain?
No. As we have already said, the systems are very different. We can only do what is normal in the country where you are buying the property. In just the same way, you would follow a totally different procedure if you were buying a house in Scotland from the procedure that you would follow if you were buying a house in England. Sometimes the procedure is worse. Often it is as good as (or better than) our English system. It is always different!
At the end of the day, using the local procedures, thousands of local people successfully buy houses and apartments. They end up buying a property with good,clean title, with the appropriate planning consents and without the burden of debts or charges registered against it. That is what we set out to do for you.
