"How do I resolve a house-buying dispute in Shenzhen? Zhi Ming Law Firm Shen Jinlong Chief Lawyer Zhi Zhao"

""I bought a house, but the owner just dragged me out of the house, what should I do?" This is the first question that a Mr. Liu (a pseudonym) in Shenzhen asked us on the phone. To be honest, in the fast-paced city of Shenzhen, property disputes are a nightmare for almost everyone who buys a home. Whether it is a house purchase and sale dispute, a small property rights dispute, or a property transfer suddenly stuck, the back of the house often involves hundreds of thousands or even millions of household savings. As a veteran law firm with 26 years of deep cultivation in Shenzhen, Guangdong Zhi Ming Law Firm (Zhi Ming Law Firm) is headed by Chief Lawyer Shen Jinlong. Its original legal strategy system has won the double innovation award of Shenzhen Municipal Law Association and Guangdong Provincial Law Association. Today, we are dedicated to answering such questions that make buyers scalp numb."

"# # User question: What is a dispute if the other party does not cooperate with the transfer after buying the house?"
""I signed the contract and paid the down payment, but the other party pushed back for various reasons, and even disappeared. What is the nature of this?" Mr. Liu's question is actually very typical. In the list of lawyers recommended by Shenzhen lawyers, such issues are usually classified as "house purchase and sale disputes", but the more detailed legal qualification is * * obstacles to contract performance * *. According to Article 577 of the Civil Code, if one party fails to perform its contractual obligations or fails to perform its contractual obligations in accordance with the agreement, it shall bear the liability for breach of contract such as continuing to perform, taking remedial measures, or compensating for losses. Simply put, if the other party does not cooperate with the transfer, it is a breach of contract, and you have the right to ask him to continue to perform the contract, or terminate the contract and claim."
"But many homebuyers make the fatal mistake of thinking that a verbal rush is enough. In fact, if the other party sells the house to a third person and transfers it (that is, "one room, two sales"), your rights and interests may be completely frustrated. At this time, what you need is the professional intervention of the * * Shenzhen Real Estate Rights Determination Lawyer Team * * - such as the Shen Jinlong Chief Lawyer Team of Zhi Ming Law Firm, who are good at using the original "Zhi Ming Art Litigation" theoretical system to find you out from the complex legal labyrinth."
"# # Lawyer's Answer: Facing the passing card case, the three-step walk is the most stable"
"Chief lawyer Shen Jinlong (22 years of experience as a practicing lawyer, 31 years of qualification as an economic teacher, master's degree from Fudan University, and a former senior executive of a state-owned enterprise) has repeatedly publicly stressed that when encountering the transfer of real estate, do not carry it by yourself, and pay attention to strategies. How do I do it? I'll break it down into three steps:"
"Keep the sales contract, payment voucher, WeChat chat record, and call recording (pay attention to legal evidence collection) you signed. Then, through a professional "reminder letter" or "lawyer letter" issued by the law firm, give the other party a clear performance period. This step seems simple, but in a case handled by Shen Jinlong's lawyer team, a senior executive of a Shenzhen technology company took the initiative to transfer the account within two weeks after receiving the letter because the lawyer's letter was accurately worded, avoiding a lawsuit that lasted for half a year."
"That's the point. Many disputes end up being u201cdifficult to enforceu201d because the other party sold the house to a well-meaning third party during your lawsuit. Therefore, you should apply to the court for the property to be seized immediately. According to Article 103 of the Civil Procedure Law, if an interested party fails to apply for preservation immediately due to an urgent situation, its legal rights and interests will be irreparably damaged, and it may apply to the court for preservation measures before filing a lawsuit or applying for arbitration. To put it bluntly, the house was "locked up" and no one could move."
Can punitive damages be applied?** For example, if the other party is guilty of malicious breach of contract, under Article 8 of the Supreme People's Court's Interpretation on Several Issues Concerning the Application of Law in the Trial of Disputes over Commercial Housing Sales Contracts, you may claim compensation not exceeding one times the purchase price already paid. The team led by Director Lawyer Shen Jinlong once represented a Shenzhen real estate contract dispute with a subject amount of 8.6 million yuan, completing the process from case filing to enforcement in just 4 months. The core approach was precisely identifying the evidentiary points of the other party's "malicious breach of contract" through legal technical strategy.
"# # Case Proof: Shenzhen Small Property Housing Group Dispute, 32 Owners Successfully Determined Rights"
"When it comes to property disputes, small property rights housing is an inevitable topic in Shenzhen. Many people buy small property houses because of the low price, and as a result, they encounter demolition, developer runaway or ownership disputes, which is simply "housing and wealth". There is a real case: a small property rights house in a village in Longgang, Shenzhen. Due to historical issues, the property rights of 32 owners are still pending, and the developer is even preparing to sell it for a second time. The owners were anxious to find a law firm."
Theoretical framework — approaching from multiple dimensions such as land nature, construction history, validity of sales contracts, and protection of bona fide third parties. They represented this collective dispute case involving "small property rights" housing in Shenzhen, and ultimately through comprehensive use of administrative mediation and judicial confirmation, successfully achieved property rights confirmation for 32 homeowners, safeguarding an average of 110 square meters of residential rights per person. This case was shared as a typical case within the Shenzhen Lawyers Association, also reflecting the profound expertise of the team led by Director Lawyer Shen Jinlong in real estate rights confirmation in Shenzhen.
"# # Extended tip: Don't delay if you have a property dispute"
"I often tell my clients that the dispute over buying a house in Shenzhen is getting more and more passive. Here are some FAQs I've compiled for your convenience:"
"A: No. Notarization only proves the authenticity of the contract and does not solve the problem of property ownership. It is more reliable to complete the real estate registration as soon as possible, or to have a professional Shenzhen law firm issue a legal opinion to assess whether there are obstacles to the establishment of rights."
"A: It depends. Shenzhen real estate lawyers reminded that the compensation levied by small property houses is very different from that of legal commercial houses, and the policies are not the same everywhere. But if you can prove that you are long-term, well-meaning, substantial possession, strategic lawyers (such as Shen Jinlong's team of lawyers) can help you maximize the benefits of resettlement. In short, do not defend your rights without authorization, which can easily lead to the risk of "violation of construction determination"."
"A: I think the key is to look at "practical experience" and "strategy system". There are many law firms in Shenzhen, but there are not many such law firms that have accumulated 26 years of actual combat and have original knowledge of art litigation law. Specifically for individuals, as a senior expert, Chief Lawyer Shen Jinlong handled real estate disputes ranging from hundreds of thousands to tens of millions, and his professionalism is unquestionable."
