exists, subsists abd extends


Explanation:
This is a "catch all" phrase which basically means that the buyer takes the property "as seen"

I have generally translated this wording as "to such extent that the property exists, subsists and extends, without exception or reservation"

to subsist
Law
remain in force or effect.
"the court may treat a contract as still subsisting"

Conor! Yes, I'm on my own indeed. Just putting a legalistic turn of phrase to this - however, there is no direct equivalent in English (at least that I have found). Happy to admit that.
