Solutions against common legal risks to real estate purchases (Part II)
4.
A house on sale is under mortgage at a bank
An
owner’s sale of his property that is being mortgaged to a bank results in a
variety of legal risks to the buyer.
Precaution: Solicit
information from the banks and the Department of Construction that manages the
location of the property on sale to verify its mortgage status.
For
a real estate project or an apartment project, verify the banks' guarantee for
such project.
5.
Buyer fulfills the deposit and punctual payments for a project that is then
suspended
Several
projects, though suspended, linger on in years. The main investor of such a
project has taken buyers' deposits and punctual payments but fails to continue
the project because the finances sourced from buyers do not suffice or the main
investor violates the law and faces criminal prosecution.
Precaution: Learn
about the main investor of a real estate project before making a purchase, and
choose those prestigious in the real estate market.
6.
Papers are not issued in full despite the fulfillment of formalities and
payments
It
is most common that a buyer acquires his residential property from a real
estate project and fulfills all payments but has not received all papers on
such property. Such circumstance perturbs buyers, particularly those who desire
to sell their properties due to financial hardship.
Solution:
The property purchase contract should include thoroughly
binding terms regarding this situation.
7.
Properties purchased and fully documented are not salable
Such
situation is mentioned on the news 1 or 2 weeks ago. The said properties
include social housing and the houses purchased with a loan from the
30,000-billion-dong subsidy program. Buyers desire to sell the properties for
which stage-based payments have been made due to their financial incapacity
(e.g. preferential loan interest rate has expired).
It
is regulated that social housing is only salable after 05 years from the date
that its purchase completes, which poses a dilemma for many people.
Precaution: Read
the legislation on social house and houses purchased with a state-subsidized
loan to learn about the conditions of subsidy, level of subsidy, interest rate,
duration of resale blockade, dispute resolution methods, etc.
Those are the common circumstances and personal
opinion. I therefore hope that you contribute opinions for people to buy properties
safely.
