Water "borrowed" from another property, and the network-extension bill landed on you. Basic infrastructure is the seller's obligation — not yours.
Garden, full swimming pool, finished gourmet area in the brochure — and the unit delivered with none of it. What was shown to sell is part of the contract.
Rent still running, mortgage payments flowing, and no keys. Delay creates a right to compensation — and "improvised possession" does not count as delivery.
Leaking pool, damp walls, unfinished works. A verbal promise repairs nothing — and warranty periods are longer than they tell you.
Pump, garden, flooring, water well. If you paid to fix the seller's failure, you are entitled to reimbursement — with monetary adjustment.

What was promised is bindingBrochures, the show home and the broker's WhatsApp messages are part of the contract (Brazilian Consumer Code, arts. 30, 35 and 48).
Delay has consequencesMaterial damages, loss of use, moral damages — and why accepting the keys is not a waiver.
A house without water is unfit for livingInfrastructure is the developer's legal duty (Federal Law 6,766/79) — and whoever paid for a well can claim it back.

Real case study (anonymized)The house delivered without water — the full timeline, from improvisation to lawsuit.
Medeiros & Roma — MR Advogados assists clients throughout Brazil and abroad, working digitally, with procedural strategy and close, personal attention: an honest viability assessment, out-of-court negotiation when it solves the problem, and firm litigation when it is needed.
Our premise is simple: litigation is a tool, not a goal. We assess every case individually — including telling you, with full transparency, when a lawsuit is not the best path.
