What We Handle
How can we help with your property legal needs?
Complete Due Diligence
Before you commit to any property purchase, we conduct thorough legal checks—verifying clean title, checking for outstanding debts, confirming planning permissions, and ensuring all contracts protect your interests. We leave no stone unturned.
Contract Preparation & Review
Spanish property contracts require precision. We prepare and review all documentation, ensuring every term is clear, fair, and legally sound. Whether you’re buying, selling, or entering complex arrangements, we protect your position.
Notary Coordination
We coordinate with notaries, banks, and all parties to ensure smooth completion. With power of attorney, we can even represent you at the signing, making the process effortless if you can’t be present.
Post-Purchase Support
After completion, we handle utility transfers, direct debit setups for community fees and property tax, and any ongoing legal matters. Our support continues beyond the notary signing.
Expert Legal Support for Property Buyers in Spain
Our in-house legal department helps buyers navigate the Spanish property purchase process with confidence. From obtaining NIE numbers and arranging powers of attorney to conducting legal due diligence, reviewing contracts, verifying licences, and managing completion, our experienced team protects your interests every step of the way. Whether you’re purchasing a holiday home, investment property, or permanent residence on the Costa del Sol, we ensure the process is secure, transparent, and as stress-free as possible.
Our Services
NIE Number Assistance
Your NIE (Número de Identidad de Extranjero) is essential for any property transaction in Spain. We manage the entire application process, which typically takes 2-4 weeks. This is your first step toward property ownership.
Spanish Bank Account Setup
Before signing the deeds, you'll need a Spanish bank account. We recommend the best banks for your needs, connect you with them, and guide you through any language barriers or requirements—clarifying differences for residents vs. non-residents.
Legal Due Diligence
We ensure your property investment is secure from the start. Our lawyers conduct comprehensive legal checks on the property and all associated contracts, including verifying local council documents and confirming taxes and costs are correct.
Contract & Completion Management
At completion, we prepare all necessary documents including final contracts and title deeds. We liaise with notaries, banks, and sellers to ensure smooth handover. With power of attorney, we can represent you at the signing.
Power of Attorney Services
Foreign property buyers typically grant power of attorney to streamline the buying process from abroad. This allows us to handle critical tasks like applying for your NIE, signing documents, managing bank accounts, and liaising with notaries on your behalf.
Testament in Spain
Inheritance laws in Spain differ from those in many other countries. To protect your family and ensure a smooth process, we recommend creating a Spanish testament. Our in-house lawyers guide you through every step.
Post-Purchase Arrangements
With power of attorney, we handle post-purchase tasks including setting up direct debits for utilities, community fees, property tax (IBI), and waste fees (basura). We ensure stress-free ownership with ongoing support.
Ongoing Legal Support
Property ownership sometimes requires legal assistance—from community disputes to contract reviews. Our team provides ongoing counsel to House of Mojo clients, ensuring you always have expert guidance when needed.
Power of Attorney for Companies
When purchasing property through a company, granting power of attorney ensures seamless handling of key tasks—signing contracts, managing bank accounts, and liaising with notaries—without requiring your constant presence.
CIF Number for Foreign Companies
If your home country-based company intends to purchase property or conduct business on the Costa del Sol, you'll need a CIF number (Spanish tax identification for companies). We ensure your company complies with Spanish regulations.
Official Translation of Company Documents
If your parent company plans to purchase property, grant power of attorney, or operate in Spain, official translation of company data may be required. We ensure accurate, legally compliant translations.
Constitution of Spanish SL Company
It may be advantageous to establish a Spanish SL company. We provide comprehensive assistance in setting up a Spanish company tailored to your needs, handling all legal requirements and documentation.
