Buying property in Spain from a private seller puts both parties on an equal footing with regards to the protection the laws contemplate. The transaction will be mainly governed by the Spanish Civil provisions. Once the buyer has chosen a property, it is recommendable he instructs a lawyer to assist in all the conveyancing procedure.
In Spain, commonly the transaction is divided in three documents:
• Deposit document.
• Private purchase contract document.
• Completion by means of Public Deed of conveyance signed before a Notary Public document.
The seller of the property I am buying now refuses to complete.
What are my options?
