Hallo I want to ask any advise about selling a property in la zania area. I want to know whether we need a solicitor as well to represent on our behalf as we are in spain and we can go ourself but I heard that to sort things out properly seller need solicetor as well because estate agent who are selling for us said you don't need one and we are confused whether we hire one as they do charge you a good amount of fees which could be avoided if we don't hire them. Please anyone have any experience of selling please share with us. Thank you

Hi Have sold several times here and never used a solicitor, if there are any problems the noteria usually points it out and it gets solved there and then so the sale proceeds (had that twice now) simply because they buyers need everything tip top to buy. Also bought every time except the first without a solicitor as done the searches myself its quite easy as all the information is with the relevant companies (utilities) and planning permission is on file if it has been approved if not your stuffed anyway. Decided to do this as first time the deeds were not correct never found out until we sold, costs 10euro to get full nota simple, tells all

As I spoke to one of solicitor in the area he scared us with lot of taxes and complications could arises when sell your property and I was quite worried and also been quoted their fees around 1000 euros so I thank you giving us this information. Please also explain if there are any taxes to pay when one sell the property. Thank you

Hello Riaz53,

Recently me and my wife, we bought a nice house in Orihuela Costa, residencial Vista Azul 12 through Century 21 Agency. A nice experience and I fully recommend Matthieu +34 678 79 03 91. You do not need to worry about anything. The owners of our house where a Spanish family and when the deal was complete they were happy with  Matthieu, how he managed all the situations with the papers and waiting time.

So, if you do not have time and do not want to worry when selling a house in Orihuela Costa, La Zenia..contact Century 21 and Matthieu.

Good luck.
