What is an Escritura and what are its scopes?

A deed is a legal contract signed at the notary’s office for purchasing a new home. After signing the document and registering at the real estate conservator, you will legally become the owner of the property. This document will be the official proof of your ownership. 

Usually, the bank is responsible for preparing the document. The document will thus establish the financing conditions accepted by the buyer (terms, type and amount). In the case of buying with cash, the real estate agent will be responsible for the deed.

The objective of the deed is to register in a physical and legalized document all the important points that influence the purchase of a property. These are the following:

  • It certifies that you own the home, in addition that the property is new.
  • It indicates the price paid, form of payment and financial institution.
