Question juridique clé
Whether the defendant remained entitled to payment for the contracted renovation works after the purchase was abandoned and the contracts were assigned.
Solution extraite
The court held that the contractual balance remained relevant, but the lower court had to reassess the net amount in light of the value increase actually attributable to the works.
Motifs extraits
The appellant's challenge failed to the extent it denied any enrichment basis; however, the cantonal court had not properly established how much of the luxury renovation cost could be reflected in the apartments' market value.
