Swedish Law ? Purchasing Real Estate in Sweden

ADVERTISEMENTS
I have received a question if a foreign (i.e. non-Swedish) lawyer may draft the Sale and Purchase Contract in respect of Swedish real estate.

My answer was roughly as follows:

There is no formal requirement that a Sale and Purchase Contract should be drafted by a Swedish lawyer. There is actually no requirement at all regarding who is entitled to draft the Sale and Purchase Contract. Even if it is most common that the real estate agent involved drafts the contract, it could be drafted by the parties themselves or by a third party.

However, I would assume that a Swedish seller would be hesitant to sign a Sale and Purchase Contract drafted by a foreign lawyer. In addition I am not sure that a foreign lawyer would be sufficiently acquainted with applicable Swedish law relating to transfer of real estate to safe guard her or his client as buyer.
