Document verification before transaction
Planning to buy, sell, or rent a property in Spain?
Before signing a contract or making any payment, it is important to confirm that the property’s documents are accurate and complete. Outstanding debts, registration errors, ownership disputes, or planning restrictions can complicate a transaction and lead to unexpected costs.
Our pre-transaction review helps identify potential concerns at an early stage, giving you a clearer understanding of the property and allowing you to proceed with confidence.
Our document review may include:
- Verification of ownership and title deeds
- Review of purchase, inheritance, or donation documents
- Examination of the Nota Simple and Land Registry records
- Checks for mortgages, liens, seizures, debts, and other encumbrances
- Comparison of contractual, cadastral, and registry information
- Review of building permits, land classification, and planning restrictions
- Verification of rental permissions, including requirements for short-term letting
- Review of available tax and community fee certificates
- Checks relevant to transactions involving non-residents or foreign buyers
Why Is This Review Important?
- Potential legal and administrative issues are identified before you commit
- Unexpected costs and delays can be avoided
- Ownership and property information can be independently confirmed
- You receive a stronger basis for negotiations
- Any issues requiring legal or technical advice become clear in advance
We offer property document reviews throughout Spain. The scope is tailored to the type of property and transaction, with findings explained in clear, practical language.
Where necessary, we also coordinate with lawyers, architects, tax advisers, notaries, and other qualified professionals.
