Buying or Selling a Home

Whether you are a first time buyer, or trading, or scaling down, the purchase or sale of your home is a main experience. Contracts of purchase or sale must be carefully composed and re- examined, in order that they protected you from such latent inconveniences as:

  • You sign an agreement to purchase that does not contain a clause making the purchase dependent upon a satisfactory home examination. After you purchase the house, you find it has significant defects.
  • You formally agree to buy a big construction with the intention of turning it into a number of rental apartments, just to find afterwards that the property is not zoned for that use.
  • You sign a contract selling a property but you do not understand your commitments in case that any deficiencies are found in the property.

With our extensive experience in the Costa del Sol, Emilio Pino Abogados has met each circumstance before. Our experience is your shelter.
