Land registry proceedings
Processing of first registrations, horizontal divisions, title proceedings and other operations related to the Land Registry. Regularisation of asset registrations and resolution of incidents that may affect their transfer or use.
How we work
Our methodology for this service
Land registry status diagnosis
We analyse the land registry status of the property to identify issues — missing registration, discrepancies, uncancelled charges, double registrations — and determine the most appropriate procedure for regularisation.
Documentation preparation
We gather and prepare all necessary documentation for the registry procedure — titles, plans, notarial acts, cadastral certificates — ensuring it meets the Land Registry's requirements.
Processing before the Registry and Notary
We manage procedures before the notary and Land Registrar, responding to unfavourable qualifications and bringing the necessary appeals until registration is obtained.
Regularisation and asset valorisation
Once registry regularisation is complete, we advise on the steps needed to ensure the asset is in optimal condition for transfer, financing or use.
Who this is for
Property owners with assets presenting registry issues that hinder their transfer or financing, banks with foreclosed assets requiring prior registry clearing, and developers needing to establish horizontal divisions or regularise new construction.
