The Deed of Sale (Koopakte) is a fundamental legal instrument in Dutch property law, used to formalize and document the transfer of ownership of both movable and immovable property. It is particularly crucial in real estate transactions, where Dutch law mandates notarial involvement and registration with the Land Registry (Kadaster). The document serves multiple purposes: it evidences the agreement between parties, specifies all conditions of the sale, includes necessary warranties and representations, and forms the basis for the eventual transfer of ownership. For real estate transactions, it typically precedes the notarial deed of transfer (leveringsakte) and must comply with strict formal requirements under Dutch law. The document is essential for protecting both buyers' and sellers' interests and ensuring legal certainty in property transactions.
