Property Tax in Spain

Del Canto Chambers undertook instructions from ourselves regarding a floor clause claim against our Spanish bank which holds our mortgage. During this time, our main point of contact has been Eva de Francisco. Recently the case has been found in our favour and we have been happy to receive a refund of over payment of interest of just under 9K€. We have been guided through the procedure by Del Canto Chambers, specifically in the preparation of the case ensuring the correct documentation and necessary authorities were in place. During the complete process, Del canto Chambers demonstrated diligence and professionalism. We can recommend Del Canto Chambers and would not hesitate in using them in the future for any further legal work we require.

We bought our property near Alicante in 2007 with a mortgage through Banco Guipuzcoano the bank was later absorbed by Banco Sabadell. I read in the press about the mortgage Floor Clauses and Mortgage Expenses applied by the banks which the Spanish Courts have judged illegal. We redeemed our mortgage in 2017 with the bank. I contacted Del Canto who managed our claim front to back with no need for us to go over to Spain. The result is the return of £19k to us. Julio Prieto and the team in Spain and the UK kept us informed throughout process. I am therefore very happy to recommend Del Canto Chambers.We can recommend Del Canto Chambers and would not hesitate in using them in the future for any further legal work we require.

Wow, what a refreshing experience – from start to finish the Del Canto team were extremely professional, responsive, knowledgeable and supportive throughout the process of forming a Spanish company and helping transition of our working lives from the UK. Julio in particular went beyond expectations to coordinate everything efficiently. Thank you! The meeting was encouraging so we formally instructed them to act on our behalf to pursue a claim against the Menorcan bank. During the investigation we were kept up to date regularly and after delays created by the pandemic, we finally heard the Spanish High Court had found on our behalf and award a substantial amount. So a very big thank you to all the team and wish them well for the future.
