Buying in Conil de la Frontera?
Have a Spanish lawyer on your side.

It isn't legally compulsory, but in Conil de la Frontera it is strongly advisable. The estate agent and the notary don't represent your interests — the notary only confirms the signing is formally correct, not that the Conil de la Frontera property is free of debts, planning problems or licence defects. An independent buyer's lawyer is the only party working solely for you.

For a Conil de la Frontera purchase our fees are agreed in writing before we start, so there are no surprises. The exact amount is to be determined for your specific case — it depends on the property, the price and the checks involved (a straightforward resale, an off-plan, or a property needing extra due diligence). Tax (ITP or VAT), notary and Land Registry fees are separate, and we set all of it out for you up front.

Yes. We obtain your NIE and act under a power of attorney, so the searches, contracts and the signing before the notary serving Conil de la Frontera can all be completed without you travelling. Most of our international clients complete their Conil de la Frontera purchase entirely remotely.

It applies when you later sell a Conil de la Frontera property as a non-resident: the buyer withholds 3% of the price and pays it to the tax office on account of your capital-gains tax, via Modelo 211. We make sure it is calculated correctly and reclaimed where too much has been withheld.

In Conil de la Frontera this comes up often. Many country and edge-of-town properties sit on suelo no urbanizable, and some were built or extended without a full licence. Under Andalusia's Law 7/2021 (LISTA) such buildings may only be regularised as an asimilado fuera de ordenación (AFO/DAFO), which limits works, mortgages and tourist use. We verify the exact planning status of your Conil de la Frontera property before you commit.
