Buying property on the coast of Pollença
A purchase in Pollença usually starts with a private deposit contract (contrato de arras), followed by the public deed signed before a notary and its registration in the Land Registry. Before the deposit is paid, we obtain the Land Registry extract, confirm that the seller is the owner and that the property is free of debts and charges, and review its planning status.
We also calculate the taxes and costs of the purchase and, if you live outside Spain, arrange your NIE and a power of attorney so that you do not need to travel for the signing.
Inheritance and wills for owners in Pollença
When a property in Pollença is inherited, the heirs must accept the inheritance before a notary, pay Inheritance and Gift Tax, generally within six months of the death, and register the property in their name. Where the deceased was a foreign national, the EU Succession Regulation (650/2012) determines which country’s law applies to the estate.
We handle the whole process for families in Spain and abroad: certificates, translations, tax returns and registration. We also advise owners in Pollença on making a Spanish will to make things easier for their heirs.
With one lawyer coordinating the matter and a multidisciplinary team behind, you avoid dealing with several advisers at once. Advice is available in English, Spanish and German.
