Real estate agents are paid by commission and represent both seller and buyer. Seller is responsible for paying the commission which typically runs between .5% and 5%. In Sweden, the estate agent is a middleman and is under a legal obligation to look after the interests of both the seller and the buyer in a property deal. This means that the estate agent has to inform both the vendor and the buyer about the consequences of the contracts which are drawn up, and the terms and conditions which apply to the closing of the deal. For major property transactions a lawyer is typically responsible for drafting contracts. The lawyer will charge a fee based upon the work done. All registered property units have specific names and codes, normally consisting of the name of the municipality or city where the property is situated, an area name and numbers for local identification (for example Uppsala Ekeby 2:9). The Land Register contains information for every property unit including the location of the property, the registered owner (and the registered leaseholder where applicable), mortgages, easements, tax assessment values and the most recent transfer, including the purchase price. The records and documents submitted to the Land Registry are public. The Land Register is computer based and can be accessed on-line.
