Helpful hints: how to proceed when buying agricultural land by a foreigner?
2. Check the origin of the buyer. Find out whether the buyer is from a third country (outside the EU, Switzerland) which restricts the purchase of land by foreigners or foreign companies. Such a third country could be, for example, Thailand.
3. Seek legal support. If you have foreign clients, we recommend consulting a lawyer about alternative options for transferring the farmland, for example through a Czech legal entity.
Decision: Evicting a tenant without going to court? With a notarial deed it is possible again!
A recent Supreme Court decision (Case No. 31 Cdo 225/2024) brings good news for landlords. The Supreme Court has now confirmed that a notarial deed with permission for direct execution can again serve as an enforcement title for eviction of a tenant who refuses to leave the apartment after the end of the lease.
A notarial deed with direct enforceability is an effective tool, particularly for fixed-term leases. If a specific date is set for the end of the lease, the tenant is obliged to vacate the apartment at the end of the lease. If this obligation is secured by means of a notarial deed with direct enforceability, the landlord can proceed directly to eviction by vacating without having to go through lengthy court proceedings.
