Purchase of movable property

We have all raised the possibility of making a purchase of movable property (such as a car, motorbike, antique furniture…), and it is advisable to know that this object may possess a certain defect, malfunction or wear by the mere use that can generate problems between buyer and seller later. Therefore, we recommend that before you proceed to the sale of furniture you prepare a document (contract) to protect your interests.

Purchase of movable property contract

What should I consider?

By means of the purchase, the buyer will acquire the property of the thing that the seller gives to him in exchange for a price. Before proceeding try to make sure:

That is the right thing, the one you really want to buy or sell.

The state of the thing, being advisable to have at least some knowledge about that type of products or to be accompanied by an expert who can advise you.

Defects that apparently anyone can detect will not be the responsibility of the seller. If after delivering the item and paying the price, the buyer decides that it is not to their liking and wants to return or ask the seller to repair it, the latter will not have the obligation, nor if the judgment appears later.
On the other hand, if the fault was not easily detectable, the buyer, using his sales contract, can request the arrangement or return to the seller.
That the seller is the owner or legally represents the owner. No one can validly transmit something that is not his.
That the seller in addition to owning, is empowered to transmit the thing, ie that the thing does not have a second owner and does not fall on a condition that prevents it from being sold.
That the price is fair, or the general price of the market for those movable property and state in which it is located. This point can be somewhat more flexible because it depends on the interests of the parties.
