Before signing a sales warrant with CLOVIS immo, you must collect a set of mandatory documents and diagnostics. This guide details everything you have to prepare — administrative documents, technical dossier, diagnostics — for immediate and compliant sale.
In France, real estate sales are strictly regulated by law. The seller is required to provide a complete record informing the buyer of the actual condition of the property. This folder — on Technical Diagnostic (DDT) file — the objective is to ensure transparency, protect the purchaser, and exempt the seller from the warranty of hidden defects when he has fulfilled his obligations.
At CLOVIS immo, we systematically request these documents before starting any marketing. A complete file from the mandate avoids delays, reassures buyers and accelerates the transaction. A missing document is a sale that can be delayed or, in extreme cases, questioned.
First of all, you have to prove that you own the property and have the right to sell it. These documents form the legal basis for any transaction.
DDT consists of all the technical diagnostics required according to the age, location and nature of the property. These diagnoses must be performed by a Certified diagnostic — CLOVIS immo can direct you to trusted professionals in Soissons.
