purchase-sale-review

What problem does it solve?

Signing a Russian real estate purchase-sale agreement without thorough review exposes buyers and sellers to significant financial and legal risks, including invalid transactions, unexpected tax liabilities, unaddressed property encumbrances, and non-compliance with mandatory legal requirements under Russian civil law and Federal Law 218-FZ.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Mandatory Compliance Check: Validates that the contract includes all required elements per Articles 549-555 of the Russian Civil Code, including specific property identification, agreed price, and EGRN registration terms.
• Critical Clause Review: Analyzes payment terms, property transfer conditions, tax obligations, seller representations and warranties, indemnification clauses, and termination terms to identify red flags for both buyers and sellers.
• Scenario-Specific Guidance: Covers edge cases including mortgage-financed purchases, maternity capital usage, shared ownership transactions, foreign buyer restrictions, minor co-owner consent requirements, and purchases from corporate sellers.
• Actionable Output: Generates a structured report with a go/no-go signing recommendation, negotiation points, and pre/closing/post-closing checklists. Use case: A first-time home buyer can use this skill to review a draft contract for a St. Petersburg apartment, identify that the payment terms require full payment before EGRN registration without escrow protection, and negotiate to add an escrow clause to mitigate risk.
