When buying a house, multiple moments of transfer take place. The most important ones are the legal transfer and actual transfer. The legal transfer takes place at the notary, with the deed of transfer and registration in the public inventory. The actual transfer takes place simply by handing over the keys. It is possible that both transfers are on two different dates, but in most cases, these transfers are combined on the same date.
