The ”Moroso-family” with big debts to the community has put up their apartment for sale, but do not allow some potential buyers to view it!
The majority of their big outstanding debt to the community of more than 13.000 EUR will be almost impossible for the community to recover, if the apartment will be repossessed.

The new Vice-President “forgot” to mention during his presentation that he has been having a big debt to the community for more then 10 years!
It becomes extra strange that the new Vice-President was promoted during the meeting by the official assistant (Oficial Habilitada) of the Secretary/Administrator, who must have been fully aware that he is a big defaulter (Moroso).

Over the years some property owners have not kept up their payments to the community and created huge debts to the community. This has been made possible since the Presidents have not fulfilled their duties. Unfortunately it is only the debts from the last three years that have the status of priority.
Due to the statues of the community the Presidents are empowered to appoint any attorney or lawyer to initiate appropriate lawsuits to claim payments that are in defaults. All expenses caused by this procedure will be under the responsibility of the debtor.

The government has rapidly reformed the Capital Gain Tax on Properties (Plusvalía) that came into force already on 10 November after the Constitutional Court (Tribunal Constitucional) on 26 October declared the previous part of the law unconstitutional.
The reform guarantees that taxpayers who do not obtain a profit from the sale of a property will be exempt from paying the tax.

Many mortgages in Spain are linked to the EURIBOR rate. It is a quite common misunderstanding that the EURIBOR is decided by the European Central Bank (ECB), but that is not the case. It is therefore vital for people with mortgages to understand what EURIBOR is to have a better idea of what can make the interest rate of mortgages to change.

One could believe that an administration would be keen on property owners to pay their community charges, but this does not seem to be the case with the present administration.

It has come to our knowledge that the administration has processed several extra unexpected payments without any notification, which is unacceptable. Property owners that pay their community charges by standing order are therefore advised to check that no extra unexpected charges have been made by the administration.
