In addition, these rates will have to be updated every 24 hours, and the seller will have to archive them so that the buyer can compare them. For companies that will not comply with the regulations, there are penalties to be imposed by the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection (UOKiK).
According to the regulation, in the event of a discrepancy between the price given and the price offered at the conclusion of the contract, the buyer will have the right to request the sale of real estate at the price of the most advantageous for him.
The Act also provides that the developer is also required to publish the prices of a square meter of all real estate offered, i.e. together with a garage or a storage room. A violation of this obligation is to be a practice that violates the collective interests of consumers and will be punishable.
