How are discrepancies between contracts of different apartments within the same block resolved?
When it comes to discrepancies in sale agreements for different units (apartments) within the same block, the initial step is to identify the original owner of the land and review the original contract of sale. This involves establishing the preliminary conditions set when these tenements where initially sold. The responsibility for this task lies primarily with the notary public, who, after drafting a promise of sale agreement, must conduct thorough research to examine whether any servitudes are in place, and verify the validity of the legal title.
If the original contract of sale does not permit a particular servitude, the prospective seller cannot independently decide to include such. If this is the case, a correction to the contract of sale is necessary. Finally, if disputes over the tenements persist, the final recourse would be to institute a claim in the Civil Court.
