Engaging a Real Estate Lawyer in Seville: A Critical Step When Buying or Renting Property in Spain
Are you considering purchasing, selling, or leasing real estate in Seville? Securing proper legal counsel is not optional—it is essential.
At Peralta Rojas Abogados, we offer highly specialized legal services to foreign clients navigating the Spanish property market. Our firm understands the legal intricacies of real estate transactions in Spain and provides tailored legal advice to ensure that your investment is secure and your rights fully protected.
The Value of Legal Expertise in Spanish Real Estate Transactions
Real estate operations often involve considerable economic stakes. A poorly advised decision may result in financial losses amounting to tens of thousands of euros. Beyond the financial implications, legal guidance brings peace of mind—an invaluable asset when engaging in property transactions abroad.
Spanish real estate law encompasses a wide array of legal disciplines: civil law, registry law, administrative and urban planning regulations. Our lawyers are proficient in all these areas and are equipped to guide you through:
Purchase and sale of residential and commercial properties
Long-term and short-term leases
Property development and planning law
Property rights, easements, usufructs, and inheritance issues
Registration and title correction
Disputes arising from defects, unpaid taxes, or third-party claims
Prevent Legal Risks – Protect Your Investment
More than 30% of real estate transactions in Spain experience legal or procedural complications. Common examples include:
The property is encumbered with a mortgage or subject to legal claims
The seller is not the rightful owner of the property
The deposit (arras) contract is unfavorable or poorly drafted
The buyer loses their down payment due to a denied mortgage
The property contains hidden defects discovered after signing
The contract imposes all notarial and registry costs on the buyer—unfairly
Deadlines are missed, and the counterpart refuses to extend them
Disputes arise over items like furniture that were not included in the written contract
Most of these issues are preventable with early legal intervention. Our firm meticulously reviews all documentation, negotiates terms on your behalf, and ensures your interests are safeguarded from the outset.
Comprehensive Legal Support Throughout the Entire Transaction
Our real estate legal services include:
Legal due diligence: verification of ownership, encumbrances, and planning status
Drafting and revision of private purchase contracts and arras agreements
Coordination with notaries, financial institutions, and registrars
Supervision of payments, title registration, and delivery of possession
