Buying Property in Spain: Corporate vs. Personal Ownership

July 7th, 2011

Last week I was approached by a professional real estate agent with a requirement for legal representation for property purchasers, on newly built “residential” for commercial (rental) purposes property, in the Marbella region. Among the queries he had the choice of investment vehicle, that is, personal vs. corporate, was of the utmost importance for his clients, and so I decided to put some ideas on paper in respect of the pros and cons of one or the other, as I saw them. The article is titled Buying Property in Spain: In my Own Name or Using a Company?

It is worth noting that I have not included offshore companies in this article, for they are less in demand, and also I have never been too keen on them anyway.
