Legal & Technical Due Diligence
Home / Garir Investment / Legal & Technical Due Diligence
Before finalizing any acquisition, we conduct a thorough audit to ensure the asset is free of hidden liabilities and that the investment is built on a solid foundation. We mitigate legal, urban planning, and technical risks through rigorous analysis across two primary domains:
Legal & Tax Due Diligence
- Ownership & Encumbrances: Verification of title ownership, Land Registry extracts (notas simples), registered encumbrances, mortgages, liens, and easements.
- Leases & Commercial Contracts: Review of occupancy status, tenancy agreement terms, financial guarantees, and potential tenant defaults.
- Tax Compliance: Verification of Property Tax (IBI), municipal fees, community charges, and an assessment of transaction-related tax liabilities.
Technical & Urban Planning Due Diligence
- Structural & Building Condition: On-site physical inspection to identify structural defects, assess utility systems (MEP/HVAC), and estimate short- to medium-term capital expenditure (CapEx).
- Urban Planning Compliance: Audit of building permits, operating licenses, land-use compatibility, and compliance with local municipal regulations.
- Certifications & Regulatory Standards: Verification of Building Technical Inspection (ITE) status, Energy Performance Certificates (EPC), and potential compliance requirements.
