Some public authorities or tenants hold a right of first refusal (voorkooprecht, droit de préemption) on certain properties. If you have found a buyer, you must first offer the property to the holder of that right at the same price and on the same terms.

Impact on the sale

The notary checks this during the sale process. If an authority exercises its right, it takes the place of the original buyer.
