Four specialists and four different perspectives on the same transaction.
The financing tells us what the buyer can afford.
The valuation helps us understand what the property is worth.
The notary checks the legal side the transaction requires.
And the land registry specialist helps us verify whether the technical position and the property’s documentation are in order.
My role, as an estate agent, is to help all these pieces come together in a process that is as well organised as possible.
I am Lucian Dima, an estate agent in Ilfov.
If you are about to sell or buy a property in Ilfov, the first step can be simpler than you think: we start by looking at where you are now and what needs preparing before the transaction.
