Translation of house purchase contract at Notary Question
We are in the process of buying our first house here in CH and everything in going well.
Today the estate agent has informed me that we have two options when we go to the notary to sign the contract in a few weeks.
1. Get someone to translate the contract (approx 1kCHF), we sign.
2. Give authority to a German speaker who will sign the contract on our behalf.
Option 2 sounds strange to me and I was wondering if this is normal and if anyone has had a similar experience.
Thanks
A
