crossland Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 I and the venders signed a Compromis on 23rd March with a succession of 18 beneficiaries. Completion date was 30June. Since then one refuses to sign the completion document and seller's notaire will not obtain a court order - section815-5 from a judge. He wants us to sign without that vital document.What rights do I have to pull out? One vital document is missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Surely a compromis de vente cannot be considered valid unless all interested parties have signed?If the other 17 beneficiaries want to sell, then it is up to them, not you or a notaire, to put pressure on the 18th.

cooperlola Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Sorry, but didn't the o/p say that all 18 had signed the compromis but only 17 have yet completed? Did I misunderstand the question?If not then I concur with Pickles. If all 18 did not sign the compromis then you can surely pull out as it is not yet in force.

crossland Posted November 7, 2010 Author Share Posted November 7, 2010 the notaire told us that the compromis was signed by proxi, but that this one person was not giving permission for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolybanana Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Do you know why there is one vendor refusing to sign? Would a visit with a bunch of flowers help, or an envelope of used coinage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Sorry, if all signed the compromis de vente, that changes things slightly.The compromis is a legally-binding document. You will need to examine it closely to see if any timescale was included for completion. I don't know why one of the 18 signed by proxy, unless he/she was too ill or otherwise incapable to do so themselves; normally the document is posted to absentee buyers/sellers for signature. There is no legal requirement to be present, unlike the final Acte.Anyway, the 18th seller is legally in default. If he/she is refusing to let the sale complete then you would be entitled to compensation from the sellers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
