Is it safe buying a property without an escritura (title deeds)?
There are properties in this area that do not, at present, have title deeds. This is normally because the property has been in the same family for many years, and it would not have been deemed necessary. This should not cause you problems if you wish to purchase the property. Your lawyer can carry out searches to verify ownership and, once this is established, the first registration can be made and the title deeds can be issued in your name on completion.
