Vous avez investi dans un programme neuf à Saint-Giniez et le calendrier de livraison n’est plus respecté ? Les réserves que vous avez formulées à la réception restent lettre morte ? Beaucoup de mes clients ont connu la même situation. Ce qui revient sans cesse à Saint-Giniez, ce sont des acquéreurs désemparés face à des promoteurs qui minimisent les retards ou les défauts. Ma mission : vous rendre votre pouvoir de négociation. Je décortique votre contrat de VEFA ou votre CCMI, je relève les manquements, et j’exige, par la mise en demeure puis par l’action en justice si nécessaire, l’exécution de leurs obligations. Cela passe par la demande de pénalités de retard, la réalisation des travaux de réparation, ou, dans les cas extrêmes, par la résolution du contrat. Ne laissez pas s’enliser la situation : consultez ma page détaillée sur le VEFA delay: what to do?.
Concrètement, Un retard de chantier n’est souvent que la partie émergée de l’iceberg. Viennent ensuite les questions de responsabilité pour les malfaçons. Que vous soyez dans une maison individuelle ou un immeuble neuf à Saint-Giniez, le droit de la construction encadre strictement les responsabilités des constructeurs. La garantie décennale, l’assurance dommages-ouvrage, les garanties de parfait achèvement et de bon fonctionnement sont des outils puissants, mais leur mise en œuvre est technique. Je vous guide pour constituer un dossier solide, faire intervenir un expert, et obtenir la réparation due, sans que cela ne dégénère en conflit interminable.
Once the keys are handed over, life in co-ownership begins. In Saint-Giniez, both recent and old buildings generate their share of questions: disputed allocation of charges, vote on major works, conflicts with the managing agent or between neighbors. My expertise in real estate law and co-ownership serves as your compass. I assist you in reading minutes, defending your rights in general meetings, or representing you before the Tribunal of Saint-Giniez in case of dispute.
What few people know: easements can lie dormant for years before becoming a glaring problem. A neighbor who blocks a passage, a construction that removes your view, rainwater that runs onto your property... These situations, common in the hilly or old neighborhoods of Saint-Giniez, fall under easement law. It is not a matter of simple good neighborliness, but of a real right attached to your property. I help you establish the existence of the easement, to prove it
Encroachment is often a brutal discovery. During a sale project, a boundary verification, or simply by observing a neighbor's work, you notice that a fence, a terrace, or even part of a wall encroaches on your land. The reaction must be quick and strategic. You must first document the encroachment (by a surveyor-expert), then attempt conciliation, before initiating, if necessary, legal action before the Tribunal of Saint-Giniez to have the construction demolished. challenge to the building permit who authorized it.
My approach is concrete. I do not just explain the law to you, I show you the legal recourse in case of construction delay or strategies to stop a nuisance. Faced with a failing developer, I do not hesitate to mention the most serious scenarios, such as theabandonment of site, to prepare you for all eventualities and secure your real estate investment in Saint-Giniez. Your project deserves uncompromising defense.
