Abstract

The sale and purchase agreement of a house between consumers and business operators is a form of legal relationship that demands certainty and adherence to the agreements made. In practice, there often occurs a breach of contract by the business actors, such as delays in construction, delivery of houses that do not meet specifications, or even total failure in fulfilling the obligations. This research aims to examine the forms of legal protection for consumers who are harmed and the legal consequences for business actors who commit default in house sale agreements. With a normative juridical approach, this research analyzes the provisions in the Civil Code, Law Number 8 of 1999 concerning Consumer Protection, as well as various technical regulations governing the housing sector. The findings in this study indicate that the Indonesian legal system has provided normative instruments to protect consumer rights through civil lawsuits, compensation, and administrative sanctions. The legal consequences for business actors include direct legal liability and the potential for criminal sanctions if the breach of contract is accompanied by elements of fraud or gross negligence. Strict law enforcement and increased legal awareness among consumers are two important aspects to create a fair and sustainable home buying and selling transaction ecosystem. This research contributes to encouraging business compliance and strengthening the position of consumers in the realm of civil law.
