    MANY QUESTIONS.THINGS IN SPAIN AND EVERYWHERE IN EUROPE ARE TRICKIER. ASK HOW WILL THE DEAL ON A PROPERTY BE ESTABLISHED IF YOU CAN’T BE PRESENT THERE ALL THE TIME.ASK WHAT KIND OF DOCUMENTS THEY WILL NEED FROM A DIFFERENT COUNTRY TO AUTHENTICATE EVERYTHING.ASK HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO COMPLETE AND FINALIZE THE DEAL USUALLY. IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO BUILD OR RENOVATE THE PROPERTY IT TAKES FOR EVER TO GET A LICENSE FOR THAT SO MY ADVISE IS TO BUY A READ-TO-MOVE-IN PROPERTY. ALSO YOU NEED TO FIND OUT MORE ABOUT THE AREA YOU WANT TO BUY AND OBTAIN FROM THE ESTATE AGENTS ALL THE LOCAL IMPORTANT NUMBERS FOR PLUMBERS,PAINTERS, ELECTRICIANS JUST IN CASE. ALSO IN SOME COUNTRIES YOU NEED TO PAY TAX FOR PROPERTY AND MAINTENANCE. JUST GO IN THE AGENT’S OFFICE AND TELL ME YOU ARE BUYING PROPERTY AND WHAT DO THEY NEED FORM YOU AND WHAT DO YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT IT IF THEY ARE NOT HELPFUL JUST GET A LAWYER. YOU CAN FIND A CHEAP ONE(THEY ARE EVERYWHERE) AND THE LAWYER WILL EXPLAIN TO YOU ALL THE LEGAL BITS.
    HOPE I HELPED

    Find a Realtor with a CIPS designation: They should know everything about the Spain real estate market. Taxes, how title is held, closing costs incurred etc..
    The designation means the following
    CIPS, Certified International Property Specialist
    The CIPS network is comprised of 1,500 real estate professionals from 50 countries who deal in all types of real estate, but with one common element: they are focused specifically on the “international” market. Whether traveling abroad to put deals together, assisting foreign investors, helping local buyers invest abroad, or serving an immigrant niche in local markets, CIPS designers are consumers’ best resource to ensure they are dealing with a professional skilled in the unique aspects of international real estate.
    Good Luck,
