Easyhome supports international clients in several languages and explains every document clearly, from the compromis de vente to the notarial deed. For documents that need an official sworn translation or an apostille to be legally valid, Easyhome coordinates a certified translator rather than producing the legal translation itself.
Language is one of the first worries for an international buyer or seller, and it splits into two very different needs. The first is understanding: knowing exactly what a Walloon compromis de vente, an EPC (PEB) report or a notarial deed actually says before you sign. The second is legal validity: when an official document has to be presented in another language or another country and must therefore carry a certified (sworn) translation.
On understanding, Easyhome’s teams work with international clients in more than one language and walk them through each document in plain terms, so nothing is signed on trust alone. This is everyday practice for an agency that serves French, German-speaking, Luxembourg, non-EU and Spanish-market clients across its 7 Walloon offices and its Spanish channel. A counter-intuitive but reassuring point: most of what an international client needs is clear explanation and translation for comprehension, which does not require a sworn translator and can be handled directly.
On legal validity, the rules are stricter and Easyhome is careful to route these correctly. A sworn translation (traduction juree) by a translator registered with a Belgian court is what gives a translated document official standing, and foreign public documents such as a birth or marriage certificate may also need an apostille to be accepted for a Belgian deed. Easyhome does not improvise these; it coordinates a certified translator and flags apostille requirements early, so the notarial appointment is not delayed. For a buyer in Spain, the same logic applies in reverse, with Spanish-language formalities handled through the Spanish channel.
The result is a practical division: Easyhome makes sure you genuinely understand every document, and arranges the official translations and legalisations where the law requires them.
