Checking a purchase and sale agreement in Ukraine: what to pay attention to

Entering into a purchase and sale agreement is an important legal step that requires thorough legal review. An improperly drafted contract or overlooked legal nuances can lead to property loss or lengthy litigation. Therefore, legal contract review is not just a formality but a real tool for protecting your rights.

What to pay attention to when checking a purchase and sale agreement

Legal clarity of the property means verifying whether the asset is subject to arrest, mortgage or any other encumbrances.

Authority of the parties involves establishing whether the seller has the right to dispose of the property and whether the buyer is legally eligible to acquire it.

Compliance with the law includes checking whether the contract text contains essential provisions as required by the Civil Code of Ukraine.

Existence of risks for the parties involves reviewing provisions that may disrupt the balance of interests between the seller and the buyer.

Notarial form is required in cases where notarization is mandatory (e.g., for real estate), and it is crucial to ensure that the contract will be certified by a notary.

What documents are needed for legal review of a purchase and sale agreement

To conduct a proper legal review, the parties should provide the following documents:

A draft version of the agreement, even if preliminary
Documents confirming the seller’s ownership rights
Cadastral number and extract from the register (if it involves real estate)
Passports and tax identification codes of the parties
Other documents confirming the absence of disputes over the property
