Buying a Villa in Altea Hills (Spain) with Alfonso Soler.
We had been thinking about buying a villa in Spain for some time and finally found the house for us in Altea Hills (Spain). After negotiating, we agreed on a price and then we realised that the paperwork had just begun.
Legally we had no idea where to start. Buying property abroad is completely different to buying in the UK, especially if you are not fluent in the language. Someone recommended Alfonso Soler of CLF International Lawyers as a specialist property lawyer and I can't tell you how lucky we were. From then on the process was handled by their extremely efficient and fluent English lawyer, Alfonso Soler Alemany, who made sure we were looked after at all times.
It was not the easiest purchase, if we not had a lawyer on board we would have ended up with a major boundary issue that we were unaware of.
This was just the first of many bumps in a very long road, but all the stress of the purchase was taken from us and handled by our lawyer, Alfonso Soler, thank you my friend. There is no such thing as an outright purchase of a property abroad... As we now know.
After 5 long months of examining contracts and making sure our interests were covered 100%, Alfonso Soler helped us conclude our purchase and we couldn't be happier. Many thanks to Alfonso Soler and his team, we would recommend him 1000% and would not suggest anyone to buy a property abroad without his help.
