What can go wrong?
Let’s say you want to buy an apartment without any assistance, what can go wrong in this case?
First, you will certainly be in a vulnerable position, specially if you’re not in Portugal. That’s because your interests (as a buyer) won’t be represented by a lawyer.
So, there are some legal procedures that should be held before the transaction in concluded to protect the buyer, and only a truly representative can make sure that the transaction is secure.
A bad transaction can lead to the cancellation of acquisition (that leads to even more expenses), the need to pay for the property’s debts, and the list goes on.
