Buying from abroad
We review the property before the deposit contract (contrato de arras), explain every document to you in your language and sign the title deed on your behalf under a power of attorney, without you having to travel to Spain.
Client reviews
What clients who have bought or sold with us say
Reviews from clients who have bought or sold their home with the advice of AGA Abogados. They are published with their permission, stating the location and type of transaction, without photographs or details that would identify them.
Testimonials
Three experiences of international clients
Each review relates to a different type of transaction: a purchase from abroad, a purchase with a mortgage and a sale.
‘We bought our house in Sotogrande while living in London. The firm reviewed all the documentation, explained every clause of the contract to us in English and signed the title deed on our behalf under a power of attorney. Everything was simple and transparent.’
Richard and Anne W.
Sotogrande Alto
Buying a home from abroad
‘They helped us obtain the mortgage and went through the loan terms with us before we signed. They coordinated the bank, the agency and the notary’s office, and at every step we knew what we were signing and why.’
The Lindqvist family
Estepona
Purchase with mortgage finance
‘We sold our apartment in Alcaidesa without having to travel. They prepared the documentation before it went on the market, negotiated the deposit contract and explained clearly the taxes that applied to us as non-residents.’
Hans and Petra M.
Alcaidesa
Sale of a home
Common situations
Three transactions in which we can assist you
Buying with a mortgage
We help you obtain financing, go through the loan terms with you and coordinate the bank, the agency and the notary’s office so that the signing takes place on the scheduled date.
Selling as a non-resident
We prepare the documentation before the home goes on the market, negotiate the deposit contract and explain the taxes that apply to you as a non-resident seller.
What lies behind these reviews
Four commitments we apply to every file
They reflect a way of working that we apply regardless of the type of property and that you can see for yourself from the first consultation.
Explanations in your language
We explain the outcome of every check and its consequences for the purchase in English or in Spanish.
Stated timescales
We distinguish between the deadlines that depend on the firm, which we meet, and those that depend on the town hall or the registry, and we let you know if they change.
Agreed fees
No work begins without an accepted quotation. Third-party fees and expenses are charged separately and with receipts.
A reply within two days
We respond to calls and emails within two working days at most, including for clients who live outside Spain.
Buyers
What buyers value most
For purchases, reviews repeatedly highlight being able to know the situation of the property before committing, having every document explained in their own language and seeing the conclusions of the due diligence turned into specific terms in the deposit contract. They also mention the coordination with the agency, the bank and the notary’s office, which spares the buyer from acting as a go-between.
Clients who live outside Spain also mention being able to complete the entire transaction at a distance, with video calls at times that suit them and a tailor-made power of attorney.
Sellers
What sellers value most
Owners who sell highlight the review of the documentation before the home goes on the market, which avoids delays when a buyer appears, the negotiation of the deposit contract and the clear explanation of the taxes on the sale. They also appreciate the firm coordinating the cancellation of the outstanding mortgage and the signing before the notary.
Clients selling from abroad appreciate knowing the costs of the transaction from the outset and receiving information on each step by email, without needing to travel.
First consultation
What to expect when you consult us
At the first consultation, in person or by video call, we review whatever documentation you have on the property and explain how the transaction will proceed, which checks are advisable and which documents we will need. If your case does not require full due diligence, we will tell you.
You can arrange it by telephone, on WhatsApp or using the contact form. The first consultation does not commit you to instructing us: its purpose is to give you enough information to decide.
Buy or sell with the same peace of mind as our clients
Tell us about your transaction and we will explain how we can help, in English or in Spanish.
