Construction defects? Spanish law protects you

You bought your dream property in Spain… and then you discover damp, cracks, leaks, or serious construction defects. What can you do? The good news is that Spanish law protects you. Depending on the defect, the developer, the builder, or the architect may be legally liable. In many cases, you can demand repairs, full compensation, or a reduction in the property's price.But time matters. Legal deadlines apply — and missing them can cost you everything. Don't wait until it's too late to act. At Martínez-Echevarría, we help property owners understand their rights and take the right steps from day one.
