The questions that Me Zakine's clients ask themselves before establishing a quote for an auction in Grasse or Nice

Cost of a lawyer for an auction:

Some lawyers charge a fixed fee, while others may opt for a percentage of the property value or hammer price. It is therefore recommended to consult several lawyers to obtain quotes. Me Zakine takes a lump sum to push the bidding which will be deducted from the amount of the application in the event of success.

Lawyer's fees for bidding:

If the attorney comes in to represent a client in an auction, his or her fees may include preparation for participation in the auction, representation on the day of the sale, and post-sale follow-up. As mentioned previously, these fees vary.

How auctions work with a lawyer:

The lawyer can represent a buyer or a seller in a auction. For the buyer, he prepares the necessary documents, represents him on the day of the sale and takes care of post-auction procedures. For the seller, he can take care of setting up the sale, drafting the conditions of sale, and legal follow-up.

Choosing a lawyer for an auction:

It is better to choose a specialized lawyer in real estate law or auction sales. The lawyer's specialization and experience in this area are crucial for good representation.
