Buying property in Marbella

Buying property in Spain involves several legal and financial steps. International buyers generally require an NIE number and should budget for taxes, notary fees, registration costs and independent legal advice in addition to the agreed purchase price.

Before purchasing a property, buyers should verify legal ownership, planning permissions, community fees, outstanding debts and the general condition of the property.

Working with an experienced local estate agency together with an independent lawyer helps buyers navigate the purchase process with confidence.
