Once purchase is done, our lawyers
at Evolutiza
Lawyers & Tax Advisors take care of the proper register of the
property, which is crucial when purchasing
Real Estate in Spain .
From the moment of signing the deed
at the notary, the new title deed of ownership will appear in the Property
Register as long as the notary will send it electronically. However, a
subsequent procedure must be carried out to collect the original document from
the notary’s office, to settle and pay any corresponding taxes and, lastly, to
submit the deeds at the Property Register to be properly entered. We oversee
this process avoiding all administrative faults.
As soon as the deed is signed, our
firm can take charge, on your behalf, of taking out the contracts for all
utilities (water, electricity, gas, telephone and Internet connection, etc.),
of notifying the local authorities of the purchase/sale (Town Hall, Provincial
Tax Collection Office) and of duly informing the community of owners. Likewise,
if you so wish, we can arrange to take out a home insurance policy for your new
home.
In the event that the property
already has connected utilities, all that needs to be done is to change the
name on the contracts. When the contracts have been in place for a certain
period of time, the utility companies may request a technical certificate to be
issued by an electrician, plumber, etc., which states that the installation
complies with current regulations. If this were the case, our firm would deal
with applying for said certification.
