English-speaking property lawyers. Country homes, coast and rustic land.
Property Lawyer in
Cádiz & the Costa de la Luz
Buying a villa in Sotogrande, a home in Tarifa, Vejer, Conil or Chiclana, or a country estate inland? We are regulated Spanish lawyers, not intermediaries, and we take the reins from the first checks to the notary.
The Costa de la Luz has far more rustic land, fincas and rural builds than the Costa del Sol, which is exactly where a careful legal review matters most. You can also buy without travelling, by power of attorney.
We do not sell houses. We sell peace of mind: today, in two years and in ten.
Buying in Cádiz or the Costa de la Luz?
Send us the property and we will tell you, in clear English, exactly what to check before you commit. We meet clients in Cádiz by appointment, and we can also handle your purchase by video call and email.
Country homes and rustic land:
check before you fall in love
We are not new to the Costa de la Luz
We have spent years advising property transactions in Cádiz, Jerez, El Puerto de Santa María, Chiclana and Conil. Spanish and international clients have trusted us with their purchase, sale or lease.
We have handled significant transactions and demanding purchases on the province of Cádiz and the Costa de la Luz. What matters is the care with which we review every operation and the close attention, in English and Spanish, from start to finish.
The lawyers who will handle your purchase
We check first, then we proceed
You tell us the property you love. From that moment we take control: first we investigate it in depth, and we only move forward if the purchase is safe.
Everything we do for you
Taking the reins means this: we are the interlocutor of your purchase and you have the certainty that your legal team controls every step.
How much does a lawyer cost on a purchase?
In Spain, full end-to-end advice on a purchase is typically between 1% and 2% of the price (plus VAT), depending on the price and the complexity of the operation. Rustic and country properties usually need deeper checks.
A mistake on a rural purchase, an illegal build or an unregistered access can cost thousands of euros. The lawyer’s fee is tiny next to the risk. It is an investment in peace of mind.
What you will really pay in taxes and fees
As a guide, budget 10-13% on top of the price. If the seller is a non-resident, a 3% retention applies on account of their capital gains tax, which we manage. Note: Spain’s Golden Visa was abolished in April 2025; you can still buy freely, but the purchase no longer grants residency.
Areas and properties we handle
Sotogrande, Tarifa, Vejer de la Frontera, Conil, Chiclana, El Puerto de Santa María, Cádiz city and the inland Cádiz province.
Villas, beach homes, country estates and fincas, rustic land, new-builds and off-plan, commercial premises, hotels and rural-tourism assets.
A good lawyer is not an expense: it is what saves you the disaster
We have seen buyers who did not take advice come back months later after losing more than €20,000-30,000: hidden charges, an illegal rural build, incomplete due diligence, or an arras contract that did not make the purchase conditional on the mortgage being approved.
With our advice, that loss would have been reduced by more than 80%. Simply removing abusive arras clauses often saves the buyer costs the law never required them to pay.
