Hello,
I read this rather quickly and might have missed it but do not rely on their list as being what you need. They are cute and will tell you what you haven't got then tell you on the third visit. What I didn't see was any proof of income, which you probably need for your bank application. They haven't asked for debt clearance, insurance or health insurance, funeral plans or photographs - all things not always bothered with in the past. Half my documents were waived because the British woman who took me there acts as unofficial agent but is well known for her thoroughness which is why I took her with me.
Times have changed, Brexit has changed many things and the long standing recruitment drive to get other nations to buy in Spain has reaped rewards, most of the people where I live are Belgian for instance and all have bought in the last four years.
My advice would be to trawl as many websites as possible for other documents, anything that is listed and take it even if it is not requested so that you will not be surprised when you get there. Don't rely on the solicitors because there is a limit to what they can do if the officials are playing games. Sorry to be down on this but at my last official application I tried to do this and each time the official asked asked I brought out something else and gave a knowing look. Do stand up to them a little, they will bully you if you give them an inch and report this trouble to the Embassy, they are interested in what is happening post-Brexit and it will be useful feedback and may help too.
Best of Luck!
