Purchasing and old Embassy from a foreign Government

[Rienzi Weber]

Jurisdiction

European Union

I am within the due diligence process of purchasing an old embassy from Somalia. Currently all negotiations are with the ambassador himself and he has implied that he will be the one to sign the contract. I wanted to inquire if the ambassador even has the authority to sign a contract selling government property. If not, who does?

Hire a lawyer who can find that out for you.
