Condominium reform: QPAREB highlights progress but calls for adjustments

L'ÎLE-DES-SŒURS, Quebec, July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Quebec Professional Association of Real Estate Brokers (QPAREB) welcomes the final regulation completing Bill 16 on co-ownership, which was published yesterday in the Gazette officielle du Québec . However, the Association points out that certain elements may undermine the transparency of the sales process and home ownership. Among the major elements of the reform, which is set to come into effect on August 14, 2025, is the obligation for the seller to provide the buyer with a certificate from the syndicate of co-owners, a document that will include detailed information on finances, claims, major work, insurance, litigation, and amendments to the declaration of co-ownership. Risk to transparency at the time of marketing Although this new requirement is a step in the right direction to improve the quality of information available when purchasing a condominium, the QPAREB is concerned about the current interpretation that the certificate can only be obtained by the buyer after a promise to purchase has been filed. Article 1068.1 of the Civil Code of Québec stipulates that ' A person who sells a fraction shall, in due time, give the promisor a certificate of the syndicate attesting to the condition of the immovable held in co-ownership, whose form and content are determined by government regulation. ' This constraint would deprive sellers of useful information for setting their selling price and buyers of essential information when making their offer. The QPAREB is in favour of better information for buyers and sellers, but they must be able to access it at the right time, i.e., before making a legal and financial commitment. 'Real estate brokers must also have all the information they need to fulfill their duties of verification, disclosure, information, and advice to their clients,' says Nathalie Bégin, president of the QPAREB's Real Estate Brokerage Practice Committee. What this means for Quebec buyers and sellers Under the announced reform, and according to the current wording and interpretation, a buyer will have to submit a promise to purchase for a condominium without having all the information at hand or the sound advice of their broker, since the syndicate's certificate will not be immediately available. For the seller, this means that disclosing the certificate to the buyer could, in many cases, force the reopening of negotiations even after the promise to purchase has been accepted. In addition, the sale price may prove to be too high if it does not take into account important factors contained in the certificate, such as work to be done, special assessments, etc. This situation will make the transaction even more stressful for many buyers and sellers. Need for harmonization between the RIS and the new certificate The QPAREB also highlights the lack of official guidelines regarding harmonization between the new certificate, provided for in section 1068.1 of the Civil Code of Québec , and the RIS form (Request for information to the syndicate of co-owners), currently recommended by the Organisme d'autoréglementation du courtage immobilier du Québec (OACIQ). 'The RIS is a tool that is recognized, appreciated, and used by the vast majority of real estate brokers and their buyer clients to obtain relevant information prior to a transaction. Its future in the revised regulatory context remains uncertain, which could create confusion in the field,' adds Nathalie Bégin. The QPAREB is calling for changes To ensure consistent and effective implementation of the reform, the QPAREB is asking the government and relevant authorities to quickly decide on: The QPAREB is in discussions with the government on these issues, and its representatives are hopeful that the necessary adjustments will be made. About the Quebec Professional Association of Real Estate Brokers The Quebec Professional Association of Real Estate Brokers (QPAREB) is a non-profit association that brings together more than 15,000 real estate brokers and agencies.

ReconAfrica Provides a Corporate Update and Announces That the Kavango West 1X Well Has Started Drilling

CALGARY, Alberta, July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Reconnaissance Energy Africa Ltd. (the 'Company' or 'ReconAfrica') (TSXV: RECO) (OTCQX: RECAF) (Frankfurt: 0XD) (NSX: REC) announces that the Kavango West 1X exploration well is currently drilling and provides a corporate update on ongoing operations. Kavango West 1X (Prospect I) – Well Spud on July 31st The Kavango West 1X exploration prospect spud on July 31st. The well is planned to reach total depth (TD) of approximately 3,800 metres (12,500 feet) by the end of November 2025 and is expected to penetrate over 1,500 metres of Otavi carbonate reservoir section, which is the primary target of the Damara Fold Belt play. The prospect is a large structural fold identified on modern 2D seismic data, which extends over 22 kilometers long by 3 kilometers wide. The Company has identified over 19 prospects and four leads mapped in the Damara Fold Belt trend, with an additional 5.0 million acres captured in a recently executed Memorandum of Understanding in offsetting Angola. More information about the Damara Fold Belt Play, and the Kavango West 1X well, can be found in the Corporate Presentation available on the Company's website. Brian Reinsborough, President and CEO stated: 'We are pleased to announce that we have started drilling the Kavango West 1X well. This is an exciting time for everyone at the Company, our partners and stakeholders in Namibia and, of course, shareholders alike. Originally, the Kavango West 1X location was not scheduled to be the next well, but the location was reprioritized after the results of our last well, Naingopo. While this reprioritizing resulted in a slightly longer lead time to spud this location, the Company prioritizes rigorous technical appraisal with respect to location selection to ensure we have the best possible chance for commercial success. We think that the Kavango West 1X prospect represents our best opportunity in the Damara Fold Belt to unlock the potential of this play and we look forward to reporting results expected before year-end 2025.' Chris Sembritzky, SVP Exploration commented: 'By utilizing our learnings from the Naingopo well, Kavango West 1X represents the best opportunity we have identified on seismic in the Damara Fold Belt play due to its size, hydrocarbon migration pathway and well defined four-way closure. With our new subsurface learnings, highly experienced drilling crew and optimized, built for purpose drill bits, we believe that we have captured the best possible chance for drilling an efficient, safe and commercially successful well.' Corporate Update Due to our ongoing drilling activities, the previously announced 3D seismic program that had been scheduled for the second half of 2025 has been moved to the 2026 operating Company is continually reviewing potential investment opportunities that may include acquisition of further acreage for exploration, development and producing properties and joint venture transactions that target acceleration of production and free cash flow, particularly due to the Company's concentrated asset risk profile. Stock Option Grants As part of the annual compensation review, the Company has granted incentive stock options (the 'Options') to certain directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company to acquire an aggregate of 6,960,000 common shares at an exercise price of $0.60 per share.
