Dear Sir/Madam,

If the cheque isn't honoured you will have lost your home and you will have to initiate legal proceedings against them which can take some time. In any case, you have the home as a guarantee of payment unless they sell it on to someone else in the interim and dissappear...

That is why in despite of what many self-appointed forum experts claim, we always recommend that both purchaser and vendor use their own lawyers to avoid problems such as the one above which can easily be overcome hiring a Spanish registered lawyer.

We take the opportunity to offer you our Spanish Conveyancing service for the sale of your property. Please feel free to contact us on the matter. I'll send you a brochure with reasons on why a vendor should always hire a lawyer for a conveyance procedure.

Yours faithfully,
