LEGAL ADVICE<br />
Buying a<br />
property<br />
in <strong>Spain</strong><br />
THE PROCESS<br />
In <strong>Spain</strong> the buying process has been simplified to become<br />
easier and quicker since it was known to be complicated and<br />
lengthy, now the sale or purchase of a home in <strong>Spain</strong> has not<br />
only become easier, but also quicker.<br />
The dual system involved joint documentation, the Land Registry<br />
with a written description of a property while the Cadastre had<br />
graphic representation in the form of a map or plan. There were<br />
sometimes errors where the two did not match, this led to legal<br />
disputes regarding boundaries. The Cadastre was not routinely<br />
cross-referenced with the Land Registry, details that showed<br />
alterations and extensions built that would not necessarily appear<br />
on the Cadastre, again leading to legal complications.<br />
The Spanish government took action to update the<br />
conveyancing process and ensure the two registries were<br />
consistent when describing a property. Amongst the changes is<br />
the requirement that Land Registry descriptions must include a<br />
‘graphic representation’ of the property in the form of a copy of the<br />
map or plan held by the Cadastre.<br />
This will ensure buyers know exactly what they are purchasing<br />
and the Cadastre will have to make note of any alterations to<br />
a building marked on the Land Registry records, and the two<br />
institutions will also have to use the same reference code for each<br />
property in order to avoid confusion and make the comparison of<br />
data between the bodies easier.<br />
Government officials estimate it will avoid the need for<br />
some 22,000 personal declarations a year, saving €1.8million.<br />
More importantly, it will provide greater security, clarity and<br />
transparency for people buying a property, and should speed up<br />
the process greatly.<br />
