Fact:
Thousands of people in Spain now own Spanishproperty that is illegal, semi-legal or that has huge potential liabilities - because they failed to do proper research before moving to Spain!
|
* Buy an illegal Spanish property - of which there are many: too close to the coastline, built without planning permission, too large for the plot size or that lack a correctly authorised Occupancy Permit (etc.)
* Buy a property in Spain that could be urbanised - you may lose part of your Spanish property and pay huge fees towards the infrastructure costs.
* Buy a Spanish property that has major structural defects.
Or you could lose significant money by:
* Buying into an area that is blighted by shade problems, flooding or a disastrously low re-saleability factor.
* Paying way too much for your property in Spain and getting caught for paying (as a buyer!) a huge estate agentīs commission.
* Misunderstanding your inheritance tax position and ending up having to pay massive IHT - should you or your partner die.
But then (before moving to Spain) we knew exactly what we were doing....
Before you move to Spain, you must know about Spain, Spanish culture, the facts about Spain and how things work in reality. You must know where the pitfalls are and have the knowledge to avoid them. If you do, then you will be able to buy property in Spain safely and your future life in Spain will be successful and fulfilling - for the long term.
Be ignorant and 'trusting', careless and naiive - and you may lose everything that you have worked so hard for over many long years.

THE AUTHOR
I am more convinced than ever that coming here without detailed knowledge about Spain, without the right facts about Spain and without a reasonable understanding of Spanish culture is a mistake - and one that can be very costly.
GOOD LUCK!
