Property Lawyers in Javea (Xàbia): Buyer Checks
For a purchase in Javea, give your lawyer the exact address and a clear description of what you are buying, including terraces, pools, parking and any separate accommodation. The legal review should follow the property itself rather than the neighbourhood name in the listing.
Villas, plots and apartment communities
For a villa, compare the physical layout with the deed, plans and licences, and ask about boundaries and access. For an apartment, review the community documentation and use of outside space. If a plot or renovation is involved, obtain advice on the specific proposed project before committing.
Questions to ask before paying a deposit
- Are the pool and extensions included in the authorised documentation?
- Is the terrace private, communal or subject to exclusive-use rights?
- What evidence supports the proposed renovation or rental use?
Prepare for the first consultation
Send the property particulars, asking price, any draft reservation agreement and your proposed timetable. Ask for a written scope covering the checks needed for this property, the fee and any separate technical or tax advice. Agree which findings must be resolved before you become committed.
Find an adviser for your purchase

Does the Registry check cover every issue?
Request a separate explanation of the title, planning, physical condition and intended use. The official Land Registry information explains the role of Registry records; your transaction needs a property-specific review.
