Now thats a possibility, although we're gonna have to move the mortgage over and that may make the property in Spain less attractive to the mortgage lender maybe?? - plus, if we want to sell in the future, we'd have an even bigger capital gains tax to pay (...... assuming the property does gain??????) However, that would also solve the stamp duty problem at the english end. Hhhhhmm!??!!! I dont mind bending the rules a little, but I dont want to do anything illegal

If we do this, I think we'll need some very "clued up" lawyers both ends. any reccomendations????


Also, am I right in thinking that it isnt the norm to have a surveyor look over Spanish properties as is done in the UK??
