The right legal representation is the backbone of a secure real estate transaction. When working with TEKCE Real Estate, you get full freedom in choosing your legal counsel. Whether you decide to proceed with an independent attorney or our in-house lawyers, our priority is always the legal security of your investment.

On this page, we are explaining the role and boundaries of TEKCE’s in-house team during the sales process and how we collaborate with independent real estate lawyers.

Complete Freedom in Choice of Lawyer

As TEKCE Real Estate, our main goal is to ensure you experience a secure purchasing process with peace of mind. Therefore, we stay loyal to transparency at every stage and let you decide how to get real estate transaction legal support.

As an international real estate company with offices in five countries, we are aware that there are independent lawyers in every region we operate (Spain, Turkey, the UAE, North Cyprus). Working with TEKCE's in-house lawyers is a great option for customers who want to benefit from a corporate system and speed up the process, but it is never an obligation.

In short, our focus is on providing transparent real estate transactions where you can get peace of mind. Therefore, when our customers choose to proceed with an independent lawyer, we work in full cooperation with them.

How TEKCE Cooperates with Independent Lawyers

You may choose to purchase a property with assistance from a lawyer you already know or found through a personal reference. In this case, we continue to offer full support in your decision.

TEKCE offers 100% flexible lawyer selection in real estate transactions. We don’t have a “mandatory list” you need to stick to. You are free to work with any lawyer across the globe.

Lawyer Coordination in Real Estate

The moment you decide to work with your own lawyer, we connect with them and transmit all title deed records, contract drafts, and due diligence reports related to the property. We adapt the process to meet your lawyer's requests to ensure seamless cooperation and act as a solution partner every step of the way.

Why Opt for TEKCE Lawyers

There are countless benefits of in-house lawyers in real estate companies. First of all, you can benefit from two decades of experience in corporate governance. Our team of lawyers has experienced almost every scenario in real estate and can manage the process in the fastest way possible.

The agent-lawyer coordination under the same roof also offers strategic advantages. Before anything, TEKCE lawyers are fully familiar with the company's operating procedures and communication channels. They know exactly what to track and how to ensure the buyer’s legal safety. The streamlined flow of information enables paperwork to be completed as quickly as possible. If unexpected issues arise, the in-house team responds immediately to address and resolve the problem on the spot.

The Customer-Sided Lead Lawyer Model

TEKCE lawyers are hired based not only on expertise and experience but also on their compliance with ethical values. This way, our lawyers adopt our customer-oriented workflow and honesty principles to protect the buyer's rights at every step.

Our lawyers operate on the "zero error" principle, without focusing on closing the sale. If there is a hidden debt, a mortgage issue, or uncertainty regarding the property, they will be 100% transparent with you.

In summary, the primary duty of our in-house lawyers is not to complete the sale, but to minimize legal risk in real estate purchases and act as your personal advocate throughout the process.

Defined Roles and Boundaries of TEKCE Lawyers

The primary duty of TEKCE lawyers is to provide legal consultancy to buyers during the sales process. They are not salespeople; they do not have the authority to recommend products, offer investment advice, or close deals. They solely focus on ensuring that the property you choose is legally safe.

However, lawyers’ real estate legal advisory services are extensive and critical to ensure a risk-free property buying process:

Due Diligence: They examine title deed records to check if there are any mortgages, liens, encumbrances, or habitation license issues to verify real estate legal compliance.
Contract Security: They review and draft contracts to ensure every clause protects the buyer's rights.
Process Management: They oversee the entire transfer process, from securing your payment (managing escrow accounts) to the title deed transfer.

Extended Legal Support with TEKCE Visa

Established under the roof of TEKCE, TEKCE Visa specializes in managing international legal transactions. With over 20 years of experience in the field, our legal support extends far beyond title deed transfers. We have developed an efficient workflow for residence permits, citizenship applications, bank account openings, company formation, inheritance law, and tax management across countries. Unlike general law firms, we know the best ways to adapt international quality standards to local market dynamics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is a real estate lawyer?A real estate lawyer is a legal professional specializing in property transactions. Their primary role is to handle the legal aspects of buying or selling real estate, including drafting contracts, conducting real estate due diligence process, and securing the transfer of funds.

Why do I need a real estate lawyer?Notaries or land registry officers only verify the authenticity of the identities and documents; they do not investigate the property's history. A real estate lawyer, on the other hand, conducts a detailed due diligence to check if there are any debts, mortgages, zoning issues, or legal obstacles on the property.

Can I use my own lawyer when working with TEKCE?Yes, the choice of lawyer is entirely up to you. You can work with an independent lawyer you trust, or you can get support from TEKCE's expert in-house lawyers. We respect your decision and cooperate fully with your chosen legal representative.

Will the process take longer if I bring my own lawyer?No. TEKCE works in full cooperation with external legal experts. By quickly transmitting all necessary documents (title deed, contract, etc.) to your lawyer, we ensure that the process is carried out quickly.

Is it safe to give a Power of Attorney (POA) to a lawyer for property purchase?Yes, giving a Power of Attorney to your lawyer is the safest and most practical way to manage the process remotely. TEKCE lawyers work with limited authority. They can buy the property on your behalf and manage legal procedures, but cannot sell your property or access your bank account.

What is due diligence in real estate?Due diligence in real estate law is the legal check-up of a property. It includes examining the title deed registration and ownership; checking for mortgages, liens, or encumbrances; verifying the habitation license and zoning status; and inquiring hidden debts. TEKCE lawyers verify that the property is safe to buy and suitable for citizenship/residence applications.

What happens if a problem arises during the due diligence?If our lawyers detect a problem with the property (such as a debt, lack of habitation license, etc.), they share the information with you immediately.

Does the lawyer check if the property is suitable for citizenship or residence permit?Yes. If a property does not meet certain criteria, it may not be possible to apply for a residence permit or citizenship. TEKCE lawyers check whether the property meets the conditions of the citizenship or Golden Visa program in the relevant country to ensure your investment meets your goals.

How much are real estate lawyer fees abroad?Independent lawyers usually charge an additional service fee based on the local market, the value of the property, or the time spent. When you work with TEKCE, our in-house lawyers perform the due diligence and process management as part of our FREE sales services. Fees for Power of Attorney depend on the scope of the service.
