VEFA in Mazargues: delays, defects, reservations — the lawyer who acts
You bought off-plan in this neighborhood of Marseille, attracted by the promise of a new home, and today the construction site is accumulating delays. Or, upon delivery, the defects are glaring. Frankly, you did not sign up for this. In Mazargues, as elsewhere, buyers in VEFA or CCMI too often encounter the same pitfalls: schedules not met, reservations not addressed, defects concealed. The reality? The developer often has a head start. My role, as VEFA delay: what to do?, inaction is the worst option. Late penalties are a right, not a favor. I demand them.
What I often see in Mazargues is a lack of awareness of the solid guarantees that protect the buyer. The ten-year guarantee, construction damage insurance... these mechanisms are powerful, but their implementation is technical. A construction defect, a structural crack, faulty waterproofing: these damages fall under the responsibility of the builders. I rely on this legal framework to obtain compensation for you, without delay. Sometimes, the situation escalates to the point ofabandonment of site. There, an offensive strategy is needed, combining contract termination and a claim for damages. Before the Judicial Court of Marseille, which has jurisdiction over Mazargues, I defend these cases with sharp expertise.
Once the keys are in hand, life in a condominium begins. And with it, its share of conflicts: contested work votes, charges deemed abusive, management problems. My expertise in real estate law and co-ownership is there to enlighten and defend you, whether you are an owner-occupier or an investor. I assist you in general meetings, I prepare your appeals before the owners' association or the court. In Mazargues, dense urbanization and the history of plots also generate persistent neighborhood disputes.
An easement of passage not respected, a view obstructed by new construction, water running onto your land... These real rights, often old, are sacred. They must be asserted. Conversely, a neighbor may claim one abusively. I analyze titles, plans, the state of the premises. I determine if the easement exists and how it is exercised. Sometimes, the solution involves challenge of a building permit if it disregards your rights.
Encroachment is the most concrete conflict: a wall that protrudes, a fence installed on your land, a construction that encroaches by a few centimeters. What few people know: even minimal, encroachment is an infringement of property rights. This situation must not be allowed to become established. I first prioritize negotiation, supported by a surveyor-expert, for an amicable solution. If it fails, I file a case with the Marseille Tribunal to obtain restoration and compensation. remedies in case of construction delays or any other dispute, only one address.
