Comunidad de Propietarios: Avoid Problems with Your Neighbours in Spain

[Lawbird Lawyer]

Dear Madam,

As explained in the article above, you all have to get together at least once a year calling an AGM. In that AGM you can go over issues such as approving new actions (cleaning the driveway from pine cones) and adopting a budget that has to be approved by yourselves.

One communer cannot adopt unilaterally decisions (even if it benefits the communityt as a whole) without having reached a consensus. CO should be run democratically.

All neighbours should be contributing financially to the upkeep of the CO as explained in the article (statute nine of the Commonhold Act) in proportion to their assigned commonhold quota.

Yours faithfully,
Raymundo LarraÃ*n Nesbitt
