Opening a bank account and obtaining a mortgage
We will help you to choose the bank which best meets your needs,
according to your budget and more important the language you speak.
We will attend to it personally that an account is opened and the
necessary direct debits are set up to pay taxes and other charges.
We will also make sure you are kept up to date of eventual
modifications of your account during your absence. If you would opt
for a mortgage we will do everything to obtain a mortgage with the
best possible conditions.
The NIE number
All owners of a property in Spain need to obtain a NIE number (Number
of Identification of Foreigner).
We will assist you at the Police
Station where you will have to present yourself to obtain this
number.
Legal and fiscal advice
Are you considering purchasing a property in your own name or in
name of your children? Would you prefer to purchase through a
British company or rather set up a new Spanish company?
During one simple conversation we can advise you in these matters,
and look whether it is possible for you to pay the minimum of taxes
and succession rights. Tenerife is an area in the European Community
which offers interesting tax advantages.
We will forward a list of lawyers and legal advisors who speak your
language and know all about the Spanish and British laws.
Assistance during your search
After a first conversation we organize the necessary visits to
the selected properties. What is very important when making your
decision is the extra information which we will offer you, e.g.
about the area, the surrounding developments, shopping centres,
future developments and projects, etc.
Before uploading a new property in our portfolio we always make sure
there are no outstanding debts or charges.
Therefore we contact the Catastro, Land Registry, Town Hall and even
the Community of Owners.
Assistance at the Notary Public
We take care of all the preliminary preparations of the title
deed. At the moment of signing the deeds at the office of the Notary
public we will also be present.
Even after that, we will make sure
that all documents are drawn up correctly, and that the property is
inscribed in the Land Registry and Catastro correctly.
Letting your property?
Thanks to our letting experience, we will make sure that your
property is only rented out to suitable tennants.
This way we can
offer a high revenue to our owners.
Interior decoration
We will take out the necessary time to accompany you in search of
the perfect interior. If you prefer this, we can organize a visit to
the most important furniture suppliers of Tenerife.
