SELLING AN OLDER PROPERTY



Lawyers of purchasers of properties in Spain, will now amongst the other documentation, ask for a certificate of first licence of occupation.  This is normally available with some hard work, from your local town hall.  Information for older properties will not be available on the computer systems but in one of the hundreds of old archives.  If this relates to your property, you will have to furnish the relevant planning department of a history of the property going back to when and by whom it was built.  There will also be cases that some properties will have been built, without obtaining this licence.
