Good evening,

the never-ending story continues...
After overcoming the family court (twice) and the land registry office with great effort on the phone,
the purchase price deadline is now due for us.

*The real estate agent has been commissioned by the seller to carry out the handover with us.

He will only give us the keys and read the meters, that's it. Therefore, for example, we will not be able to test warm water (300l boiler, it takes a long time to heat up) as heating and water have been turned off. Requests to turn everything on a day before are rejected, referring to it not being his task.

House handover protocol:

* note then no warm water and set a deadline for seller's repair?
* other possible defects will also be noted with a deadline, (the seller will of course not perform any services, so in case of major damage everything via lawyer, right? (We will have no direct contact with the seller, (500 km away) and emails and letters will not be answered.
(Unfortunately, we do not have a phone number)
* Maintenance contracts, how can I find out what needs to be done without assistance? My idea is to contact Schwörerhaus directly and have a technician come? (for a fee, of course)
* Documents are “supposed” to be available at the handover. I just hope that is true now.
*What else should I definitely keep in mind during the handover?

(Build year 2020)

I look forward to answers.

Addendum Purchase price payment is difficult in this case.
Because there is a pledgee account where daily interest is supposed to be calculated and an heir account.
This should be credited exactly on the day. How am I supposed to know exactly when the money is on there?
I will try to clarify this with the bank tomorrow.
Of course, the payment deadline of 14 days is also running for us.

If someone doesn't have an 11ante memory, the one meant is this one:

Go in and turn on the water and hot water right away, by the time you've walked through the whole house and looked at everything, easily about half an hour will have passed and you'll already know if the heating is still working ;) the water will also be a bit warm by then

I would not agree to that; the broker must be present until the end during the inspection/handover and sign the protocol.

You turn on the water and heating at the beginning and check towards the end whether everything is warm.

Otherwise, test all the light switches once, check the documents, especially regarding the building permit.

Maintenance contracts should be included in the documents, otherwise address them afterwards.
It is important to have the residential building insurance clearly arranged because after the handover, the risk lies with you.

Thanks, finally understood the name thanks to the pun... :D

With us, we had to report to the residential building insurance when the house was handed over (date of land register transfer), and the contract was then automatically transferred to the buyers, who were informed that they could either take it over or terminate it early if they wanted to go elsewhere. This ensured that the house was never uninsured. This is important because it is also the bank's collateral. It would be bad if the place burned down exactly during the transition period, so the insurance must always exist. At least, that's how it was explained to us. Since the house is from 2020, you still have warranty. I assume (hope?) you had the rights assigned to you in the purchase agreement? We had it in the notary contract that our rights against the construction company transfer to the buyers, so that the warranty continues for the new owners and any claims for defects would then be directed to the construction company. That means if anything more serious occurred, it would probably be a problem between Schwörerhaus and you, not between the seller and you. In general, the seller as a private person is only liable for things they fraudulently concealed from you as far as I know. Note: Just my personal opinion/experience, I am not giving legal advice. ;)
