Me Zakine, VEFA and real estate lawyer in Grimaud
Vous avez acheté un appartement ou une villa en VEFA à Grimaud et le chantier accumule les retards ? c’est une situation que je rencontre trop souvent. Les promoteurs invoquent la pénurie de matériaux, les intempéries, les aléas. Le quotidien est souvent tout autre : Ces retards ont un coût financier et psychologique considérable pour vous, acquéreur. Ce que peu de gens savent : le contrat de VEFA (Vente en l’État Futur d’Achèvement) ou la CCMI est un cadre très strict. Chaque jour de retard ouvre droit à des pénalités de retard, souvent mal calculées ou purement ignorées. Mon objectif : vous expliquer clairement vos droits, d’exiger la communication du planning réel, et de faire appliquer le contrat. Cela passe par une mise en demeure ferme, puis, si nécessaire, par une action devant le Tribunal judiciaire de Grasse, compétent pour Grimaud. Ne laissez pas s’installer l’impunité.

Mais les problèmes ne s’arrêtent pas à la livraison. Mon constat à Grimaud, avec son patrimoine ancien et ses constructions neuves en zone pentue, ce sont les malfaçons et les désordres de construction. Une fissure apparue après deux ans ? Une infiltration dans votre belle résidence ? La garantie décennale et l’assurance dommages-ouvrage sont vos boucliers. Pourtant, les assureurs et les constructeurs cherchent régulièrement à minimiser leur responsabilité. Je vous aide à constituer un dossier technique solide, à mandater un expert indépendant si besoin, et à engager la responsabilité des acteurs concernés pour obtenir la réparation intégrale des désordres, sans compromis sur la qualité.
Once you are an owner, life in a co-ownership can hold surprises. In Grimaud, there are many co-ownerships of villas or apartments with views of the Gulf. Conflicts over work votes, charges deemed excessive, management issues... These tensions disrupt your peace. My expertise in real estate law and co-ownership allows you to navigate the co-ownership regulations, challenge irregular decisions in general meetings, and defend your interests before the property manager or the court.
The charm of Grimaud also lies in its land, its paths, its open views. And that's where neighborhood disputes arise. A right-of-way easement not being respected blocks your access? A new wall obstructs your view of the sea or the hills? Rainwater runoff diverted onto your property? These real rights, often old, are registered in the mortgage or result from an acquired fact. They must be enforced. Conversely, a neighbor claims a right of way that
Encroachment is the most direct conflict. Has your neighbor in Grimaud built their swimming pool or extended their terrace onto your land? Has a party wall been destroyed or modified without your consent? The first step is a bailiff's report and a boundary verification. Then, the remedies are clear: demand the demolition of the encroaching structure or, if you accept it, negotiate fair compensation and a right-of-use agreement. Inaction often amounts to waiver. Faced with a abandonment of site neighbor that escalates into encroachment, or a questionable building permit, you must react quickly. Moreover, regarding urban planning authorizations, do not hesitate to consult my advice on the challenge of a building permit.
My law firm regularly intervenes for the residents of Grimaud. Whether it is to negotiate an amicable solution or to represent you before the Grasse Tribunal, my objective is the same: to allow you to peacefully enjoy your property, in respect of your rights.
