Q. Due to ill health, my mother and step father are currently selling their property in Spain. They bought the apartment around seven years ago.
They have been advised by their agent that the register records that a mortgage was not discharged on the property at the time of purchase and that they are liable for the debt, which is significant. They have been in contact with the Bank, who do not have any record of an outstanding debt. There may be other details that I am not aware of, but I understood that all mortgages must be discharged. I am concerned that they may be being
taken advantage of , what action would you recommend?
