PROPERTY LAW

SALE & PURCHASE

Buying a property in Spain means you’ll have lots of questions: Is the developer reliable? Is the property free of charges or encumbrances? What taxes am I liable for? Is the seller the real owner?

Whatever the property you’re buying – off-plan, new or a resale – PRIME LEGAL gives you the advice you need to buy with complete peace of mind.

HOLIDAY LET REGISTRATION

Are you planning to let your property for holidays or short term?

Legislation requires that holiday rentals in Andalucía meet certain regulations before they may be let. We can assist you with the entire registration procedure and ensure the appropriate taxes are paid.

LITIGATION

Did you have to pay Plusvalía tax when you sold at a loss? Do you know you can claim this tax back? Did you pay expenses when you took out your mortgage? Does your mortgage contract include an interest-rate floor clause?

PRIME LEGAL can offer you advice on your situation and help you reclaim. Contact us to find out how we can get your money back for you.

DO YOU NEED A SPANISH WILL?

Under the 2015 EU regulations you are able to choose whether the laws applicable to your estate are those in your last habitual residence or your home country.
So, if you are resident in Spain, then Spanish Law will be applied unless you have specifically stated in your will that you wish the law of your home country to be applied.

Thus, if you are resident in Spain it’s highly recommended that you make a Will in Spain if you wish to distribute your assets according the laws in your home country.

Note: If you made a will in Spain before August 2015, it may be in your interests to change it to expressly state that you opt for your national laws to be applied.
