Archive notarial records.
Run due diligence digitally.
Keep investor files compliant.
Docuflair for real estate trading: audit-proof archiving of purchase records, digital due-diligence data rooms with audit trail, PII redaction of seller and tenant data before investor review. 100% on-premises.
Between transaction speed and documentation duty
Purchase contracts & notarial deeds
Purchase contracts, notarial deeds and land-registry excerpts must be archived in a legally sound way for 10+ years — always retrievable for warranty, litigation and audit cases.
Due diligence on portfolio deals
Portfolio transactions involve hundreds of documents (lease agreements, maintenance, valuations). External advisors need structured access — strictly confidential, with a gap-free audit trail.
Tenant PII before portfolio sale
Before a portfolio sale or share deal, tenant and seller PII must be redacted from hundreds of lease agreements and correspondence — manual work is not feasible.
Investor reporting with tiered detail
Different stakeholders need different levels of detail: Limited Partners see consolidated reporting, advisory boards see interim-review details, financing banks see cash-flow excerpts.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the most important questions for real estate trading
How does Docuflair support due diligence on real estate transactions?
Docuflair provides a due-diligence data room per transaction: all documents (purchase contracts, lease agreements, maintenance records, valuation reports, land-registry excerpts) are isolated in a multi-tenant structure, PII in tenant and seller documents is redacted automatically, and access rights for external advisors (lawyers, tax advisors, valuation experts) are set precisely. Every view and download is logged in a gap-free audit trail with timestamp and recipient.
Can notarial deeds be archived digitally?
Yes. Notarial deeds can be filed in Docuflair Archive as a scan or as a digitally delivered certified copy. The SHA-256 hash secures the integrity of the archived document; the original deed itself remains with the notary. For commercial and tax retention (HGB § 257, § 147 AO — 10 years) a digital archive is sufficient, provided it is audit-proof.
How long do purchase contracts need to be retained?
Purchase contracts for real estate must be retained as commercial correspondence and tax-relevant records for 10 years (HGB § 257 sect. 4, § 147 sect. 3 AO). In warranty or damages disputes, this period is extended according to the statute of limitations. Docuflair sets retention per document type automatically and supports legal hold for ongoing proceedings.
Can different levels of detail be released per investor/stakeholder?
Yes. Docuflair Workflow combined with Redact allows selective exports with different levels of detail: Limited Partners (LPs) receive consolidated reporting, advisory boards get interim-review access, and financing banks see only the section relevant to the credit review. Sensitive PII (tenant names, bank details) is redacted more or less aggressively depending on the recipient group.
How secure is the data exchange with external advisors (lawyers, tax advisors)?
External advisors receive time-limited, role-based access to the transaction data room. Every action (open, download, print) is logged. No copy leaves your infrastructure, since Docuflair runs on-premises. After completion or cancellation of the transaction, access can be revoked with a single click and the associated downloads are documented.
