Specify your needs and preferences<br \/>\nin terms of location, size, budget, and property features. It is also important to provide<br \/>\ninformation about your lifestyle to view properties in different areas of Palma de<br \/>\nMallorca.<\/p>\n<p>Viewing and selection: The estate agent will present you with a selection of new<br \/>\ndevelopments in Mallorca and once you have chosen the options that best suit you,<br \/>\nthey will arrange visits to the developments or sales office. During these visits you<br \/>\nshould evaluate the quality of construction, finishes and customisation options, energy<br \/>\nefficiency, location and the experience of the developer or builder in developing<br \/>\nproperties.<\/p>\n<p>Reservation and contract signing: If you decide to proceed with the purchase, you will<br \/>\nneed to reserve the property and sign a reservation contract. This contract usually<br \/>\nrequires a deposit, which may vary depending on the developer or seller. Generally, the<br \/>\nreservation is non-refundable and the time to formalise the purchase contract is 1 week<br \/>\nto 10 days, depending on the developer or seller. Be sure to check the terms and<br \/>\nconditions of the contract carefully before signing, and it is common to hire a lawyer to<br \/>\nmake sure the paperwork is in order.<\/p>\n<p>Deposit and purchase contract: Once the reservation has been completed, a deposit of<br \/>\nbetween 10% and 20% of the value of the property is usually required when the<br \/>\npurchase contract is signed. This contract details the terms of the purchase, including<br \/>\nthe price, floor plan, specifications, payment terms, date of delivery of the property and<br \/>\nany other terms agreed between the parties. If the client is not resident in Spain, a<br \/>\ndeposit of 30% of the price of the property may be required.<\/p>\n<p>Inspection and delivery: Before handing over the property and signing the title deeds at<br \/>\nthe Notary\u00b4s office, a courtesy visit will be made with the buyer to check that the<br \/>\nproperty is in perfect condition and that there are no defects. If there are any defects,<br \/>\nthe developer or vendor is notified so that they can be rectified as soon as possible.<br \/>\nSigning the deed at the notary\u00b4s office and registering the property: Once the public<br \/>\ndeed has been signed, the property will be registered in your name at the Land<br \/>\nRegistry. This step is essential to legally formalise the purchase and ensure that you<br \/>\nare the legal owner. If you hire a lawyer, they will carry out this process on your behalf.<\/p>\n<p>Furnishing and decorating: New homes are usually delivered unfurnished, with only the<br \/>\nkitchen and bathrooms fitted. We can recommend decoration and design companies to<br \/>\nhelp you furnish the house according to your tastes and needs.<\/p>\n<p>Guarantees and contractors: On the day of signing at the notary\u00b4s office, you will<br \/>\nreceive a USB, the building book, which explains the functioning of the building\u00b4s<br \/>\ninstallations and the house in electronic form. It also includes the contractors involved;<br \/>\nin case it is necessary to contact them . According to the Law on Planning and<br \/>\nConstruction (LOE), the warranty period is 1 year for defects in completion and<br \/>\nfinishing, 3 years for defects in habitability, functionality and safety, and 10 years for<br \/>\nstructural defects.<\/p>\n<p>It is important to have the<a href=\"https:\/\/coolhomesmallorca.com\/en\/contact\/\"> right advice throughout<\/a> the process, both legal and financial,<br \/>\nto ensure that everything is done correctly and in accordance with the legislation in<br \/>\nforce in Palma de Mallorca.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The process of buying a new property in Palma de Mallorca generally involves the following steps: Research and search: Choose an experienced and trustworthy estate agent to guide you through the process of finding a new property.
