Whether it is your first purchase or you manage a property portfolio, every transaction carries risks that are not visible from the listing. We work with buyers, sellers and developers in Chișinău and across Moldova to close safe deals, with verified documents and contracts that protect you.
It is the legal check of a property before you sign. We go through the cadastral extract, the ownership history, mortgages, seizures and easements, disputes and planning documents. The point is simple: you should know what you are buying, not what the listing says.
It is the official document from the Public Services Agency showing the registered owner, the recorded area and any charges entered against the property: a mortgage, a seizure, an easement. Without an up-to-date extract, you cannot tell whether the seller actually has the right to sell.
An apartment with an undisclosed mortgage, land with a dispute inherited from the previous owner or a building permit issued incorrectly. On the Chișinău market, unpleasant surprises surface months after signing. Legal verification before the transaction is the only real form of protection.
From buying your first apartment to a full-scale development project, these services cover every stage where you need real estate legal support.
Buying an apartment, selling land or investing in commercial space? We structure the deal from negotiation to notarial authentication, verify the counterpart and make sure the price, terms and warranties reflect the actual risks of the property.
Before any signature, you need to know what you are really buying. We check the cadastre extract, ownership history, existing encumbrances (mortgages, seizures, easements), pending litigation and compliance with planning documentation. Point by point.
Renting office space on Bulevardul Ștefan cel Mare or a warehouse on the outskirts? We draft lease agreements that clearly set out rent, terms, maintenance obligations, termination conditions and indexation mechanisms, whether you are the tenant or the landlord.
A construction project involves dozens of legal relationships: with the general contractor, designers, suppliers and subcontractors. We negotiate and draft construction contracts, resolve on-site disputes and verify compliance with technical standards and agreed timelines.
The urban planning certificate, utility approvals and building permit. The process is long and bureaucratic. We guide you through each stage, challenge unjustified refusals and make sure the file submitted to the municipality is complete on the first try.
Contested ownership, a neighbour's unauthorised construction, a boundary dispute or a breached sale promise: property disputes escalate quickly. We appear in court with a clear strategy, backed by cadastre evidence, technical expertise and up-to-date legislation.
On the Chișinău market, many buyers rely on trust or on the seller's assurance that 'the documents are fine'. We verify independently: an up-to-date cadastre extract, full ownership history, active mortgages or seizures, past and ongoing litigation and whether the documents match the reality on the ground.
Real estate development in Moldova involves complex construction contracts, relationships with designers and suppliers, permits from multiple authorities and deadlines that must be met simultaneously. We build the legal framework for your project, from land acquisition to the final acceptance of works.
Which property, who the parties are, your goals and what concerns you.
Cadastre, ownership history, encumbrances, disputes and planning compliance all go through the filter.
Contract, warranties, conditions precedent. Every clause is tailored to your specific situation.
Notary, cadastre, acceptance: we are there until the deal is done and registered.
