QuestionsFrequently asked questions
Can British citizens still buy property in Dénia after Brexit? Absolutely. British citizens can buy property in Spain with no restrictions. However, you now need a visa or residency permit to stay more than 90 days in any 180-day period.
Do I need a Spanish will if I own property in Dénia? Yes, strongly recommended. Without a Spanish will, your heirs face 6-12 months of delays, costly translations, and potential complications with Spanish inheritance law.
Where is your office for Dénia clients? Our office is at Avenida del Pla 126, Jávea, about 15 minutes from Dénia by car, where the legal work for every case is centralised. In-person meetings in Dénia are held with María Salvá and Antonio de Sola, in association with our practice.
Can I handle everything from abroad? Yes. With a power of attorney signed in your home country we can complete a purchase, a sale, an inheritance or a will on your behalf, keeping you informed by email, WhatsApp and video call.
