Land to buy - where to find land for sale?

[Spitfire58]

I think probably the best way would be to get in touch with someone who knows someone who has land they might be willing to sell. If you know a few Spanish people, most will likely be in this category.
I know that sounds vague but the best way to get a realistic price & if you can, have your solicitor deal with it so they don’t know it’s a foreigner buying or it will likely double !!
For what is effectively “scrub land” the prices I have seen have been ridiculous.
You also need to watch out for “zoning” & where services are, assuming you want it for building.
Just my thoughts

Take a drive around areas you'd like to buy in - often you will see handmade 'se vende' signs up, complete with a mobile number. Then get a native Spanish speaker to ring on your behalf to make initial enquiries. In rural areas the plot must be a minimum 1000 sq m for a house to be built on it.

Thanks Ron; A solicitor would have to get involved, no doubt. The services wouldn't be necessary but it definitely a bonus - not planing to build, more likely to buy and hold for the future. We're not in rush here, this all might happen once we'll get hit by another recession. It's just good to know where to look and what to expect.

My idea with the solicitor was the same as Tamara’s, get them (local & Spanish speaking) to do the dealing for you. I remember a good few years ago I was on Zante. Went to a local B&B that I had been in a number of times & got talking to one of the owners, British but lived there for years. Told them about a lovely plot I had seen for sale, they said they knew the owner & it was priced about equiv of £15000. Phoned the sale sign on it & got some Greek guy who said he owned it & it was priced at £45000 !!!

No probs Sam. Good deal for 10000sq mts for 18000€. Thought you might be interested if you are still looking

If it's being advertised, it's probably overpriced, or possibly it has problems and they're trying to offload it.

In an Island community, it's not what you know, but who you know, and, most importantly. who they know. 

As well as knowing who else to know, to get anywhere at all.

And knowing who you don't want to know about what you're doing.

Speaking as an Islander (Wight), I know from long, personal experience how these things work - - in both directions!

Wishing you well.
