Property

The importance of seeking independent legal advice when purchasing a property overseas cannot be overstated. Here at Poveda Hayes we have extensive experience in all aspects of Spanish Property Law and Conveyancing. We provide comprehensive assistance and advice to our clients so that they can avoid pits falls and help them navigate through what might otherwise be a difficult and time consuming process.

When purchasing property it is essential that all the necessary pre-contractual enquiries are made in order to ensure that the property has the correct licensing and planning requirements and that there are no hidden debts or charges affecting the property.

In particular, it is vital that the purchaser is aware and acts in the same manner as he or she would do in their home country. By so doing the purchaser will take the proper steps necessary in order to prevent avoidable loss and hardship. Our clients are given 20-20 vision through our comprehensive services and client care.

Poveda Hayes will be able to assist you with pre-contract enquiries, deposit contracts, contract to purchase contracts, building contracts, obtaining or preparing of title deeds, carrying out full searches of the local town hall as well as with all other matters that come hand in hand with purchasing property. We can also co-ordinate with your mortgage lender be it here in Spain or in your home country. We give the client the optional service of connection of utilities and putting Spanish Wills in place.

The granting of a Power of Attorney is another optional service offered by Poveda Hayes, which has the benefit of saving the client from having to come personally to Spain at each and every part of the purchasing process. We can arrange for you to grant powers during your visit to Spain or at home at your local notary public’s office. Such powers can be general or specific and in all circumstances may only be exercised following the clients written instructions.

We believe that our thorough and comprehensive service will give you the best opportunity to buy a property in the most secure way possible. As a general practice law firm we will be on hand to assist you in other aspects of your ownership experience here in Spain well after your property purchase has been concluded.

Poveda Hayes has extensive experience in post-purchase issues such as construction defects, multi-storey building management issues and licensing problems. More information on our experience in these areas can be found in the Construction and Licensing Law section
