The Deed of Sale and Purchase Binding Agreement (PPJB) for land and buildings is commonly used when the requirements for executing a Sale and Purchase Deed (AJB) have not yet been fulfilled; however, this condition may give rise to disputes, particularly when the seller acts in bad faith toward third parties, thereby causing losses to the buyer. This normative juridical research employs a literature study and qualitative analysis. The results indicate that a PPJB that fulfills the requirements under Article 1320 of the Indonesian Civil Code remains legally valid and binding as law for the parties. Legal protection for good-faith buyers is provided both preventively and repressively. The judge’s consideration in Decision Number 132/Pdt.G/2017/PN.Btm is deemed consistent with Article 1338 paragraph (3) of the Civil Code by recognizing the legal validity of the PPJB.
