The transfer can then take place at the notary's office at short notice. You also have the opportunity to engage one of the recommended architects and/or contractors by subsequently entering into an agreement with them. Following this, your chosen architect — and at a later stage, the contractor — will contact you to realise the property completely according to your wishes.

The Construction
