Good independent Lawyer
Regarding conveyancing/property purchase etc, Can anyone recommend a good independent English speaking lawyer?

Hi
We always recommend one near Albox. It's Zurgena but may be a bit far. Remember to shop round. When we purchased a second property in Mojacar our Solicitor in Huercal Overa was 600€ less than Mr. Davies in Mojacar. Better advice too.
Hope it goes well.

Thanks Bob and Sandra, yes MD was the first one we spoke to, coz of recommendations. I was just trying to weigh his costs and services against any others anyone had.
What surprised us was the algorithm.
50% up front
The fact the.figure.of 1600€ did not include transfer of utilities, IBI,etc. Each of those was an additional charge at 50-100€ each. Then we wanted to pay via a CHAPS transfer UK ACCT TO UK ACCOUNT & were counselled against. We actually did a CHAPS transfer which worked beautifully and with full agreement of Notary in Mojacar.

Dear Lord. Hence the need to shop around. Our Spanish chap was 1100€ all in. Rob in Los Gallardos recommends Mundi Abogardos at Bourganvillia roundabouut..We always recommend Amanda Oakley of Zurgena at ALO Services. Just send some e mails.
Best Wishes,
Bob and Sandra.

Yes, others have recommended Mundi. Costs seem good and reasonable and she gave a very detailed account of what their services included, unlike some of the others. I’ll email ALO Services.
Thank you
Our pleasure. Also if buying from Brits and not mortgage then consider CHAPS transfer.
Have a great Xmas and 2019.
