Successful legal review uncovered hidden risks

Legal due diligence of a commercial property portfolio can reveal risks that are not apparent from the purchase price or an ordinary inspection. ARROWS reviewed land-register records, supporting documents and the actual condition of the properties, identifying issues including unsecured access and an unauthorised building section. The case explains how the team coordinated remedies with technical specialists and supported a secure acquisition.

Based on the findings, ARROWS immediately took steps to eliminate risks and ensure the smooth completion of the transaction. The firm's lawyers negotiated with the neighboring owner to establish the missing right of way, initiated additional legalization of the unauthorized construction in cooperation with the building authority, and ensured that all identified legal defects were resolved prior to the transfer. At the same time, the ARROWS team prepared complete contractual documentation for the acquisition, including setting up an escrow account so that the purchase price would be paid to the seller only after all liens had been deleted from the land register. The result is a successfully completed transfer of the real estate portfolio with a "clean" title, carried out without delay and future legal complications. ARROWS thus protected the client from potential losses amounting to millions and enabled them to take full advantage of the newly acquired real estate for further business ventures.
