Dissolution of Joint Property Ownership in Spain
5 yrs ago I returned from Spain leaving my husband to follow me at a later date.we lived 6mths in uk 6mths in Spain..
One parent was seriously ill, and the birth of a child prompted my return.. Although things were very strained.
I returned in May 2008 in Sept 2008I learned my husband wanted a divorce and to make matters worse, emptied all bank accounts leaving me destitute.. He had arranged to visit Thailand and prospective brides were waiting!,
In order to freeze accounts of which there were multiple and very healthy I filed for divorce.
Because he was in Spain this was very expensive, but I was able to retrieve ample funds be it 50% which was only fair.
But my ex retained our villa worth £395.00 as he advertised, but said would be approx 2yrs for a sale,
after 5 yrs he is making no attempt to sell he lives there with new wife ,but is making a tidy profit excess 10,000e pa
He will not sell, not allow, me to share even though 2 apartments, just cuts me off when I ask,,,the agreement was I got 50% of rental
To date nothing...
How can I get him to sell or allow me my assists.my name are on deeds. And I worked all my life to enjoy the lifestyle but feel cheated.

My American fiancé and I (British) bought an apartment in joint names in 2004 in Galicia. He died suddenly in Galicia whilst on holiday in 2005 without any mention of me in his American will, which had been written years prior to us meeting.I have legal documents from the lawyer who dealt with his estate in America stating that his heirs ie 3 sons have relinquished their interest in the apartment. Can you advise me on how I can now remove my fiances name from the title deed leaving it solely in my name? I have been trying to sort this out for all these years and only just come across your website. I very much look forward to your reply.

Hello, my mother passed away 5 months ago. My sister and I inherited her half of a property in Barcelona. The other half is owned by her partner. He is expecting us to continue to pay bills for the property until he wants to sell. We wish to sell as we do not have the money to pay the bills it has an outstanding mortgage. Can anyone one of us force a sale. We live in the UK and he is still living in the apartment.

Thanks Patricia for your reply .
I think the biggest problem is getting any agreement with my mother partner he does not speak to me at all and acts on my behalf without permission.
Dissolution of Joint Property Ownership in Spain
I am thinking of buying a property in Spain but want to know if buying a property jointly has the same meaning in Spain as it does in England ie if a joint owner dies the property immediately vests in the surviving joint tenant and a will is not required to do this? I wonder whether it more akin to buying as tenants in common in England? Could you please clarify this?

Hello,
Me and my father have a joint property in our names. My father also has two other properties, one joint with my sister, and one joint with my mother. Two of the properties are very difficult to let.. and we have decided to give them up to the bank. However, as all three properties are mortgaged with the same bank.. the bank said we can only give up all three.. or none. Not just two of them. We decided there to try to put the main property (joint with me and my father, just one one of our names).. and all the others just on my fathers name... so that he is then able to let them go and give them up to the bank. Could we use the dissolution of joint property in this case and just pay 1% for each property?
