Legal Advice When Buying a Home
Why Legal Advice Matters
Buying a home is a big investment – and a complex legal process.
Most buyers don’t know:
-
The estate agent represents the seller – not you
-
Without a legal reservation, cancelling the deal can cost you 1% of the home’s price
-
Legal pitfalls in contracts can restrict your rights or become costly surprises
💡 Legal advice isn’t required – but it can save you far more than it costs.
What’s Included
Our legal advisors provide:
- Review and approval of the purchase agreement
- Communication with bank and estate agent
- Preparation and registration of the deed
- Settlement statement (refusionsopgørelse)
You can also get help with:
– Co-ownership contracts
– Prenuptial agreements
– Wills (testamente)
💡 These may not be top of mind during a home purchase – but they can prevent big challenges later.

Why Legal Advice Is Worth It
You’re investing millions — don’t risk losing 1% of the purchase price just because a legal reservation was missing.
And remember: the estate agent represents the seller – not you.
A legal adviser ensures your interests are protected — not just assumed.
Peace of Mind During the Deed Process
Letting the seller’s agent handle the deed? That means they control when your payment is released.
With Bomae, you stay in control. We manage the deed registration and coordinate the payment release — ensuring everything runs smoothly, with no surprises.
