Can anyone recommend a pub where we might meet expats who might talk to us about pros and cons of buying in spain.

What kind of property are you looking for, and where? Apartment on the coast, country property, city or urbanization? Will you be living here permanently or using it as a holiday home or even considering letting it out to tourists? Apart from never using the abogado recommended by the estate agent that's about the only generalisation I can make.

Rather than take the word of many of the bar-room lawyers why not have a look at the Citizens Advice Bureau Spain site for information about many things to do with the bureaucracy in Spain. Just bear in mind that many towns and provinces ‘tweek’ the rules of the country for their own procedures.
