Description
Hidden property defects lawyer in Bucharest
Did you discover any infiltrations, cracks, or other defects after purchasing an apartment or a house? We analyze the contract, the moment of discovery, and the technical evidence to determine whether you can invoke the warranty and what remedy is appropriate.
Not every defect has the same treatment.
It must be verified whether the defect was hidden, how much the use or value of the item is affected, and whether the defect or its cause existed at the time of delivery. Technical documents and the circumstances of the purchase are important. A complaint regarding the finishes alone does not prove the conditions of an action.
What we can analyze for you
- The contract, the guarantee clauses and the receipt or delivery process records.
- The moment of discovery and the notifications communicated to the seller or developer.
- Evidence of the defect, possible causes and the need for a technical assessment.
- Options regarding the remedy, price reduction or cessation of sales, if the conditions are met.
- Negotiation and preparation of the position in court, for the buyer or seller, in separate cases.
Keep the evidence before interventions
Dated photographs, correspondence, findings and documents of the works are useful. If urgent repairs are necessary to limit the damage, document the situation and costs. We determine together how the evidence can be preserved; the lawyer does not replace the expert who examines the property technically.
Documents for consultation
The contract and annexes, the handover record, the guarantees, the available documentation regarding the property, the technical reports and the bills. Note when you noticed the problem, what you communicated to the seller and what response you received. Mention if the seller is a natural person or a developer and if there is already a dispute.
Frequently asked questions
When can I request the resolution of the sale?
The remedy must be chosen according to the legal conditions and the severity of the situation. Not every non-compliance justifies the termination of the sale.
Is a photo enough?
It may be useful, but the nature and cause of the defect may require additional technical evidence. We analyze what is missing before formulating claims.
Do I have to notify the seller quickly?
According to Article 1.709 of the Civil Code, the buyer must communicate the defect hidden to the seller within a reasonable period, assessed according to the circumstances. If the defect appears gradually, the period begins when the buyer becomes aware of its severity and extent. A late notification may lead to the loss of the right to demand the resolution of the sale. The seller who concealed the defect cannot invoke these provisions. Keep a copy of the notification and proof of communication.
