English Lawyers in Spain
Lawyers and tax advisers familiar with Spanish property laws and procedures include:
The local notary who conveys the property in Spain is
a civil servant whose responsibility is to ensure that the correct procedures
are
followed, that the seller has good title to the property, that the right
amount of tax is paid, and that the property is registered at the Land Registry.
The notary does not verify or guarantee the accuracy of statements in
contracts so it is essential to have your own lawyer. The notary is not
there to protect
the interest of either the buyer or seller and is certainly not an expert in
the inter-relationship of local taxes and English tax and property law. A good
lawyer and tax adviser is considered imperative please mention Spain4uk.
