There is no doubt about it, finding a home in Spain is an adventure and
we will make it as enjoyable as a holiday! If you wish, we can meet you
at the airport and take you to your accomodation or you may prefer to
hire your own car. Before you arrive on the coast we will have discussed

in an air conditioned car by a member of our team, who’s time is

simply enjoy a once in a lifetime experience. Should you not find exactly
what suits you best, don’t worry. We will be happy to continue to
find properties for you.
Buying a property in Spain with total confidence:
When you are shown a property by Dream Living, you can be sure of several
important points: The developer will have all the necessary licenses for
the construction of your property in Spain. If the construction is not
completed, the developer will have funds to complete the project. Your
new home will have a TEN YEAR LEGAL GUARANTEE of quality construction.
At Drean Living we make sure of this before we discuss the home with you.
Reservation Deposit:
Once you’ve found your ideal property in Spain you simply
reserve the property with a Reservation Deposit. We will arrange
for a lawyer to be present. Between 3000 – 6000 Euros is
usually sufficient. It is usually better to pay this by credit
card or cash.
The deposit is refundable if the vendors change their mind but is
not refundable if you cancel. Paying the reservation deposit guarantees
that the property is taken off the market and is reserved for
you at the agreed fixed price. If you haven’t previously
appointed a Spanish property lawyer, as part of our A.P.O.T.S.“All-Part-Of-The-Service”,
we will be happy to arrange one with you. Your lawyer will explain
the procedures for buying in Spain and all the associated costs.
From now on, up to, and even after completion of the purchase, our
support staff and your lawyer will take full responsibility for
the entire transaction, advising you, and keeping you up to date
every step of the way.
There are many excellent English-speaking Spanish property lawyers available.
Choosing the right lawyer is your guarantee that Spanish Legal
requirements are met, that the property is genuinely registered
in the vendor's name and is free from any mortgage, charges or
restrictions.
Your lawyer will negotiate and discuss the purchase terms with the
vendor’s lawyer and, as well as the agreed price, will include
all your other requirements such as fixtures and fittings, the
completion date and your preferred method of payment.
Exchange Of The Private Purchase Contract:
In the case of a resale; once you’ve paid the reservation deposit
for your property in Spain, you have a period of up to 30 days to exchange
the private purchase contract with the vendor. At this stage you will
pay the balance of the deposit. You can arrange for your lawyer to handle
both this stage and the completion on your behalf if you are unable to
attend. Before your lawyer exchanges contracts he will have completed
the detailed searches and investigations at the Land Registry in respect
of the property.
Before Completion:
With a new property, before you instruct your lawyer to complete
the purchase, Dream Living will inspect the property on your behalf
and detail anything that might need putting right. Once rectified
to your satisfaction, the title deeds can be signed.
Completion:
Finally, on the day set for completion we will take you to the
Public Notary with your lawyer to sign the Title Deed, making
the final payment to the vendor who simultaneously passes you
possession of the property and hands you the keys. At this stage
the sale is completed.
Immediately after completion the Notary will fax details of the title deed
to the local Land Registry confirming your identity as the new
owner. In this way the Notary and Land Registry are acting jointly
to protect and guarantee your interests.
Free Spanish mortgage and legal advice:
Before you decide to buy, if you should require finance we will
explain the various options of how to achieve this and place you
in the right hands. Specially appointed Spanish property lawyers
who speak your language and who are experts on Spanish property
affairs, will ensure that your purchase is totally legal and worry
free.
A simple move:
The Spanish property purchasing system in Spain is surprisingly
simple and efficient. Once you have signed your contract of purchase,
your home, assuming it is completed, will be available for you
to move into, in a short while. Next is a most exciting time,
furnishings and fittings. If you wish to bring furnishings from
your home, there are many expert removal companies who will do
the job most efficiently and economically. We will be pleased
to advise you who is available.
After Completion:
We don’t stop here! As part of our A.P.O.T.S
we will also arrange for the utilities and services such as water and
electricity to be supplied in your name and will organise their payment
through a local bank of your choice. Don't forget our after sales service
is FREE of charge.
Always remember that we’re still here to help with everything you
need to set up your new lifestyle; furniture, decor, pool services, healthcare,
pet care, car purchase, new schools, local gym, golf clubs, telephone
and internet, just to mention a few!
