LEGAL ADVICE

In the first instance, the buyer signs a private contract establishing the property being bought, the price, the form of payment and the completion date. This document is signed by all parties without the intervention of a Notary. The parties are obliged to fulfill it but it is not valid in relation to third parties. Legal advice in Spain.

When the time comes to complete the purchase, the Title Deed (Escritura) is signed before a Public Notary and must be recorded in the Land Registry, which provides legal security.
