Professional document package for the purchase and sale of Swedish real property.

Designed according to the formal requirements of the Land Code

A purchase of real property must meet specific formal requirements. The purchase document must be signed by both the seller and the buyer, state the purchase price, and contain a clear declaration that the property is being conveyed. The package’s main agreement is structured to ensure these central requirements are easily met.

Contains more than just a simple purchase agreement

Real estate transactions involve significantly more checkpoints than just the signature. Therefore, the package includes separate documents for the duty of inspection, seller disclosures, easements and encumbrances, mortgage deeds, possession, settlement statements, consents, and title registration.

The purchase agreement covers, among other things

• parties and authority
• complete property designation
• conveyance of an entire property or a fractional share
• purchase price, down payment, and final payment
• date of possession and occupancy
• deed of sale upon full payment
• financing and inspection conditions
• buyer’s duty of inspection
• known faults, defects, and seller warranties
• easements, rights of use, and utility facilities
• mortgage deeds and charges
• yield, fees, and risk before handover
• property and building accessories
• energy performance certificate and relevant documents
• title registration and costs
• spousal consent and powers of attorney
• breach of contract and annexes
• witnessing of the seller’s signature

Deed of sale included

If the purchase agreement stipulates that a deed of sale (köpebrev) is to be issued upon final payment, the separate deed of sale template can be used as a receipt and additional purchase document. The template includes property designation, purchase price, receipt, final declaration of conveyance, signatures of the parties, and witnessing.

Buyer’s duty of inspection

According to Chapter 4, Section 19 of the Land Code, a buyer generally cannot claim for faults that should have been discovered during an inspection called for by the condition of the property and the circumstances of the purchase. The package therefore contains a separate checklist for property extracts, inspections, building permits, easements, mortgage deeds, water/sewage, radon, energy performance certificates, permits, and title registration.

Seller’s disclosure annex

The separate property annex structures the seller’s actual knowledge regarding, among other things, the roof, facade, foundation, drainage, wet rooms, electricity, heating, ventilation, water/sewage, previous damage, insurance claims, easements, joint facilities, environmental risks, and inventory. This annex does not replace the buyer’s duty of inspection.

Handover protocol and settlement statement

On the date of possession, the final payment, fees, keys, documents, mortgage deeds, meter readings, and the condition of the property must be reconciled. The package includes a ready-made structure for this final check.

Title registration and rules from July 1, 2026

Title registration must normally be applied for within three months from the date the document on which the acquisition is based was drawn up. Lantmäteriet’s current guidelines also specify new identification and documentation requirements for purchases from July 1, 2026, including a Swedish personal identity number, coordination number, or organization number for the buyer. When a legal entity becomes an owner, information about the ultimate beneficial owner or an exemption from such notification requirements may need to be provided.

Witnessing

Witnessing is not a validity requirement for the real estate purchase itself according to Chapter 4, Section 1 of the Land Code. For title registration, however, Lantmäteriet stipulates that the seller’s signature must be witnessed by two persons, which is built into the templates.

Spouse and consent

Written consent from the seller’s spouse may be required under the Marriage Code. Therefore, a separate consent template and checkpoints are included for situations where the property is a joint home or marital property.

Who is the package suitable for?

• individuals buying or selling a detached house, vacation home, or other property
• companies conducting simpler real estate conveyances
• buyers and sellers performing the transaction without a standardized real estate agent contract
• advisors who need a structured working draft

Limitations

The template package is primarily intended for an already established property or fractional share. Purchase of a specific land area that is to be partitioned, complex commercial real estate transactions, compulsory sales, advanced tax structures, and specially regulated acquisitions may require individual legal support.

Legal basis

• Land Code (1970:994), especially chapters 4 and 20.
• Marriage Code (1987:230), especially Chapter 7, sections 5–9.
• Lantmäteriet’s current guidelines for title registration applications upon purchase.
