Is this the right check for me?
It is for buyers who have found a particular property in the Canary Islands and want to understand its documents before paying a deposit. Still choosing an island or area? Start with the free guides.
What should I check before paying a deposit?
Make sure the paperwork is for the right property. Ask who will receive your money and what you are agreeing to. Have your lawyer review the agreement before you sign or pay.
Read the guide →Can I just get the property documents myself?
Yes. You can order a nota simple, the Spanish Land Registry summary, directly. Our Property Check explains how the documents relate to each other and identifies questions that need answers. If you only need the summary, you may not need this service.
Read the guide →What if a document is missing?
We tell you what is missing and which questions we cannot answer. If a document is missing, some checks remain unresolved. We agree how to handle missing documents before you pay.
Will this tell me if I can rent to holiday guests?
No. That needs a separate check of the property and your plans. A holiday-rental sign or the seller’s existing permission is not enough to answer that question for you.
Read the guide →I already have a lawyer. Do I need this too?
Ask whether your lawyer already checks and explains these documents. If that work is included, you may not need to pay for a second check.
Who will prepare my report?
Before you pay, we name the person who will prepare your report and explain their role. Legal advice from GLEX & CO is a separate service with its own fee.
I have already paid a deposit, or must sign soon. What now?
Tell your lawyer about the deadline. Send them the agreement and any proof of payment. Do not wait for a general report when you need advice on your next legal step.
