ARROWS negotiated a significant discount on the purchase price for the client due to hidden defects.
Hidden property defects may entitle a buyer to a purchase-price reduction when they existed at the time of transfer and could not reasonably be discovered during inspection. In this case, ARROWS arranged legal analysis, an independent expert report and negotiations with the seller. The parties reached an agreement on financial compensation and repair costs without the need for litigation.

We then prepared complete legal documentation—notification of the defect to the seller, calculation of the claim for a discount on the purchase price, and a pre-action notice—and took over all subsequent negotiations on behalf of the client. Arguments supported by expert documentation made it possible to quickly reach an agreement on financial compensation and reimbursement of repair costs without the need to initiate legal proceedings. The result was an effective and quick resolution of the dispute, which fully protected the client's investment.
