Title Deeds Insurance

Many of the clients who have used us as their lawyers for the purchase of their property in Spain in recent years know about title deeds insurance, but for those of you who don´t we can arrange this very useful protection cover for you through the large insurance company Caser, who speak and produce documentation in English.

Title deeds insurance is a 20 year legal protection relating to your property in Spain that can be purchased for a one-off premium of 294 euros. 

The insurance covers fraud (including document forgery), fraudulent transactions relating to your property, border disputes, demolition orders, compulsory purchase, legal claims against your property, community disputes and other types of financial and legal problems that could arise in 20 years of owning a property.

Please email Amanda on sales@spanishsolutions.net if you would like further information regarding this useful insurance protection.

      CLIENT PROFILE – EVOLUTION

 We would like to tell you this month about a new English family run bar and restaurant our clients have opened in La Fuente Commercial Centre called Evolution.

 Brothers John and Jack Williams have recently opened Evolution as a relaxed bar and restaurant open daily from 9am until late.  They take pride in serving fresh food including a large range of different types of chicken and beef burgers handmade daily, flame grilled steaks, daytime snacks, evening specials such as a Curry Night and Pasta Night and Sunday lunch.

Their competitively-priced good value food and enormous first floor sunny terrace with beautiful views is already attracting a regular clientele during the day.  On Friday and Saturday nights, the venue's live music and large bar with extensive range of fine wines, spirits, beers and cocktails is proving an exciting new addition to the area.

 For those who don´t know, La Fuente is conveniently located close to three golf courses; Villamartin, Campoamor and Las Ramblas, so ideal for an evening after a day´s golf.  Evolution also has two large plasma televisions regularly screening sporting events.

 The enormous bright terrace has plenty of room for children to play and there are several reasonably priced items for them on the menu.

We would like to wish John and Jack Williams every success in their new venture and we recommend that you try Evolution.
