Investment advice and real estate management

The real estate sector is currently regarded as a safe haven. We have seen it in previous economic crises: even if asset values fall from time to time, they always recover. It is therefore no wonder that you are thinking of investing your savings in the purchase of one or more properties to exploit them at a later date. In these cases, the services of a lawyer specialising in real estate investments in the Balearic Islands will be essential to avoid unforeseen events.

What problems can you face in terms of investment and management of real estate businesses?

In most situations, a basic guide to real estate law will not be enough to deal with the various obstacles you encounter. To give you a rough idea, here are the most common legal problems you may encounter if you decide to invest in the sector:

Finding out who the owner is

Does this sound impossible? Well, it is more common than it seems, especially when the property comes from an inheritance. To find out, it is necessary to request a Nota Simple from the Land Registry.

servicio 2 bufete frau

Is it possible to carry out a commercial activity in the property?

This will depend on whether or not the property is authorised to do so, something that can only be checked by making an enquiry at your local town hall or at the corresponding district council. If the answer is no, you will have to take the necessary steps.

The encumbrances on the property

We are talking, for example, about mortgages, non-payments, easements and tax debts, but also about possible encumbrances derived from the state of the property. In order to know them, the IPV certificate (Inspección Técnica de Viviendas) is necessary.

Taxes to be paid

This is another fundamental aspect when investing in a property. The most important are the VAT (Value Added Tax), if it is a new building, and the ITP (Property Transfer Tax), if it is a second-hand property.

To this must be added the IAJD (stamp duty) and, once the property has been purchased, the IBI (Impuesto sobre bienes inmuebles), which depends on the cadastral value. A real estate investment lawyer in the Balearic Islands will advise you on how to manage it and help you find out if the operation is really profitable. Do not hesitate to contact Bufete Frau to receive personalised help in this regard.
