Purchase and After Sales Support
The Property Purchase Process in Spain: We’re Here for You Every Step of the Way
At SolMar Properties, we understand that the property purchase process in Spain can seem daunting. That’s why we offer a dedicated, professional team. They will guide you through the entire process, from your initial enquiry to securing your dream home and beyond. We believe in going the extra mile for our clients, because it’s not just about selling properties for us. It’s about providing comprehensive support and care.
What Happens After You’ve Found Your Dream Property?
To secure the property, you will need to sign a reservation contract along with the vendor. We will arrange a meeting where both parties can formally fill in the document. Together, you’ll agree on a time scale for purchase. We will also address any individual agreements between you and the vendor, such as furniture arrangements.
A time scale for completion will be agreed upon signing this contract. There is often the possibility to move earlier, if both parties agree. A deposit will be required to put the property on hold while the solicitors complete their searches. We can provide guidance on money transfers to Spain to help ensure a smooth transaction.
Choosing Your Solicitor
While we are always here to help and advise, we strongly recommend choosing your own independent solicitor. They will handle your legal matters. We can provide a list of proactive solicitors recommended by our clients for your convenience. Once you have chosen your solicitor, we can arrange an appointment for you to meet privately. This way, all your questions, concerns, and thoughts are addressed.
Once your solicitor has completed their checks, you will pay the balance of a deposit within the agreed time frame. This solidifies the sale and offers you protection should the owner back out. We also assist with the application for your NIE number. This is compulsory for anyone buying property in Spain who isn’t a Spanish national. Your solicitor can handle this process for you during the sales process.
Staying Flexible as Requirements Change
It is essential to note that laws, rules, and regulations related to property purchases can change regularly. Solicitors may request additional paperwork based on specific property registrations and legal requirements. While this may occasionally cause a slight delay, rest assured your solicitor is working in your best interest. We work closely alongside your solicitor to ensure a smooth process for both you and the vendor.
From Signing to Completion Day
Once all contracts are signed by both parties, our team continues to liaise on your behalf. This covers mortgages, insurance, furniture packages, removals, and more. We are dedicated to providing you with total peace of mind. We are available to address any questions, no matter how small.
The final stage of the property purchase process in Spain is completion day. A member of our staff can accompany you to the notary office. There, the balance of the purchase monies is paid, and the official title deeds are signed over into your name.
Support That Doesn’t Stop at Completion
But it doesn’t stop there. SolMar Properties is here to help and advise you even after you’ve purchased your dream property. Our doors are always open, and our team is ready to assist you with any information or support you may need. We believe in teamwork. We are committed to making your dream of owning a home in Costa Blanca South a reality.
