This could be. I should have mentioned that the "piso" is new construction. If the construction is new, do you buy the house "as is"? It would fit into the context if the house were used, but wouldn't it sound strange to say that for a newly built flat?

"as is" and "where is"


Explanation:
A bit late maybe. I am translating a contract from English into Spanish and this term appeared.

"The Assets are being sold "AS IS” AND “WHERE IS” without any representations or warranties, other than those contained in the Asset Purchase Agreement."

Example sentence(s):
  • "The Assets are being sold "AS IS” AND “WHERE IS” without any representations or warranties, other than those contained in the Asset Purchase Agreement."
