Land purchase contract okay and legal?

Karsten is right there. Your notary drafts the contract. That means he knows it and can explain the contract.

It seems you already have a draft contract. Why don’t you make an appointment with your/the notary? He is paid quite a bit for that.

And don’t worry, there are no stupid questions. If you think, for example, that the division of the property is not sufficiently regulated in the contract, then raise a veto and ask for correction. Because it’s not done with broken-down abbreviations. It’s like a job reference; you don’t immediately see if something was worded disadvantageously.

So off to the notary :)

Sorry, but this is about a lot of money.

1. The contact person is the notary. No question is too stupid to ask him; after all, he gets paid a lot. However, you shouldn’t ask the question only at the signing appointment.

2. A notary is obliged to neutrality, meaning no party.

Sounds like a case in which it makes sense to get legal contract support. That would be a lawyer you trust.

So the point is, if something should not be as we imagine it, then we will still pay the notary.

Uhm... we are talking about a purchase contract created by a notary, right?

A purchase contract without notarization is invalid.
That means everything the seller writes to you on a piece of paper or a napkin, even if you both sign it, is invalid.

You are not buying a car, TV, or cell phone here.

The buyer always commissions and pays the notary in Germany. So he also chooses him.
The notary drafts the contract exactly as both! parties want it. Otherwise, one of the two would not sign either. He does not draft anything illegal or grossly disadvantageous to the other.
Surveying: Who pays for it? You - buyer and seller - have to negotiate that. The notary writes it as you want.
Result of the survey:
Either fixed price or - if desired - you define the price per square meter with the risk of possibly having to pay afterwards, because the survey can also turn out in favor of the seller. The effort is not worth it for 2-3 square meters.
As I said: talk to the notary. If it all seems too shady to you: then the deal just falls through.

So we are allowed to take the local notary?
