Bricks and Mortar

Whether it's a dream, an investment opportunity or simply the practical need for a family home, many people come to the point where they want to find and buy a house in Spain. Like many things in Spain, this process is regulated, with a sequence of specific steps to take. The better prepared you are the more likely you are to get the right place at the right price.

Step-by-step guidelines

AngloINFO's INFOrmation Page, Buying a House or Property in Spain, explains each step of the process, from the point at which you've identified a property to buy through completion of the sale.

But before that can happen you need to find that property. In the Property & Real Estate category of The AngloFILE you'll find English-speaking property search specialists (or "house hunters") as well as property agents who know the area and represent local properties for sale. If you've found a place you like but are unsure about its condition, you can select a surveyor to undertake a home inspection or an architect to consult on alterations or even draw up plans for a new build.

A key element when you're looking to buy is having a handle on the local jargon. And where better to start than AngloINFO's English-Spanish Property Jargon Guide? This gives you the low-down on lots of terms you'll find in the ads in estate agents' windows, in the printed small ads or online.
