Mortgage agency services in Spain

Mortgage agency services for expats, non-residents and foreigners are essential when navigating Spain’s complex mortgage landscape. Whether you already own a property and want to improve your loan conditions, or you are planning to buy in Spain, choosing an independent advisor ensures you access the best market opportunities.

Many buyers accept expensive interest rates or hidden clauses without realising they can renegotiate, refinance or challenge unfair terms, potentially saving thousands of euros over the life of their mortgage.

At Pellicer & Heredia, we help international clients secure better mortgage conditions with expert financial guidance and strong legal protection. Our team of independent Spanish property lawyers analyses your contract, compares options across leading Spanish banks and defends your rights against abusive clauses.

Why work with an independent mortgage advisor in Spain?

Unlike bank advisors, who can only promote their own products, an independent specialist works exclusively in your interest, helping you secure the most favourable terms available on the market. This is especially useful for expats, non-residents and foreigners, who often face additional requirements or unfamiliar banking processes.

Better mortgage conditions

Independent mortgage advisors are able to compare products from multiple lenders, which significantly increases the possibility of securing better interest rates, lower fees and more flexible repayment terms. Instead of accepting the first offer a bank proposes, you gain access to a broader perspective on what the market truly offers.

Additionally, advisors stay up to date with regulatory changes, incentives and financial trends, allowing them to identify opportunities that individual clients would rarely find on their own. This proactive approach ensures your mortgage remains competitive throughout the entire duration of the loan.

Personalised advice

Every buyer has a unique financial profile, especially when dealing with expat status, income from different countries or non-resident tax considerations. An independent advisor evaluates your specific situation in detail and recommends the best mortgage structure based on your needs, eligibility and future plans. This personalised approach eliminates guesswork and ensures clarity from the beginning.

Moreover, personalised advice means you receive explanations in your own language, with clear breakdowns of costs, timelines and contract implications. This is particularly valuable for international clients who may find Spanish banking terminology complex or unfamiliar.

Access to multiple Spanish banks

Instead of being limited to the mortgage products of a single institution, independent advisors work with a network of Spanish banks and financial entities. This opens the door to a wider range of interest rates, loan-to-value options, fixed and variable mortgage structures, and products specifically designed for expats and non-residents. The ability to compare multiple lenders increases your negotiating power and helps you secure the most competitive conditions.

Furthermore, independent advisors understand which banks are most favourable for foreign buyers, which institutions are more flexible with non-resident income, and which require stricter documentation. This knowledge saves you time and prevents unnecessary rejections or delays.

Guidance for expat and non-resident home loans

Mortgages for expats and non-residents often involve additional requirements, such as higher down payments, stricter debt-to-income ratios or international documentation. An advisor familiar with these processes ensures your application is well prepared from the start, increasing the likelihood of approval and reducing unnecessary complications. This specialised guidance is essential for buyers who are unfamiliar with Spanish banking protocols or who are just beginning to explore how to buy a property in Spain.

In addition, advisors help you understand how exchange rates, international income and tax residency can affect your mortgage application and long-term financial obligations. They ensure you choose a mortgage product sustainable in the future, whether you plan to live in Spain, rent the property or keep it as a secondary home.

Mortgage review and renegotiation services

Reviewing your mortgage regularly is one of the most effective ways to reduce long-term costs and improve the financial conditions of your home loan. Many property owners—especially expats and non-residents—are unaware that their mortgage terms can be renegotiated or improved at any time, even years after the original signing.

Full analysis of your current mortgage terms and conditions

A detailed mortgage audit allows you to understand exactly what you are paying for and why. Advisors examine the structure of your loan, interest rates, fees, amortisation schedule and potential penalties that may affect your long-term financial stability. This full analysis highlights areas where your mortgage is no longer competitive, helping you make informed decisions about refinancing or renegotiation.

Detection of abusive clauses you can legally challenge

Spanish courts have ruled against numerous abusive mortgage clauses, including floor clauses, excessive early repayment fees, IRPH-related conditions and certain administrative expenses. Identifying these clauses in your contract is essential, as many borrowers have been able to reclaim significant amounts of money through legal action.

If abusive clauses are detected, legal experts can explain your rights and guide you through the process of challenging them and claims your Spanish mortgage expenses.

Comparison of bank offers to secure better financial conditions

Once the analysis is complete, your advisor compares offers from multiple Spanish banks to determine which institution can provide the best conditions for your profile. This includes reviewing interest rate options, repayment terms, associated fees and the total cost of switching your mortgage. By evaluating several lenders, you ensure you are not limited to the conditions of your current bank.

This comparison empowers you to renegotiate from a position of strength. With a clear understanding of what the market can offer, you can either switch your mortgage to a better institution or use the competing offers to secure improved terms with your existing bank. In both cases, the goal is the same: long-term savings and a more favourable financial arrangement.

Negotiation support

Negotiating directly with banks can be challenging, especially if you are unfamiliar with financial terminology, Spanish regulations or the negotiation practices commonly used by lenders. An advisor acts on your behalf, presenting your profile professionally and ensuring the bank offers the best possible terms. This representation increases your chances of approval while reducing stress and administrative workload.

Specialised mortgage lawyers in Spain

Beyond the initial mortgage application, our specialised lawyers support you with refinancing, disputes, claims and long-term contractual issues. Their knowledge of Spanish banking regulations and consumer protection law allows them to detect problems early, challenge unlawful practices and defend your interests effectively.

Legal protection for mortgage contracts and refinancing

Our mortgage lawyers carefully review the terms of your contract to confirm they meet current Spanish legal standards and do not contain clauses that could put you at a disadvantage. This includes analysing interest rate structures, penalty conditions, administrative costs and the overall financial impact of the agreement.

When refinancing, legal support becomes even more important. A refinancing agreement may involve changing lenders, modifying repayment terms or updating interest rates, all of which require precise legal control. A specialised lawyer ensures the new conditions are clearly explained, legally sound and financially beneficial. This protects you from hidden costs and ensures a smooth transition to a more favourable mortgage structure.

Assistance with mortgage expenses claims

Many homeowners in Spain have paid mortgage-related expenses that, according to various court rulings, should have been covered by the bank. These may include notary fees, land registry costs, administrative expenses and certain legal charges. A specialised mortgage lawyer can assess your contract and determine whether you are entitled to reclaim these amounts.

Once eligibility is confirmed, our lawyer manages the entire claim process: gathering documentation, preparing the formal request and negotiating directly with the bank. If necessary, they can also take your case to court to secure the reimbursement you are owed.

Support with repossessions, foreclosure and early repayment issues

Facing repossession or foreclosure is extremely stressful, especially when dealing with a property abroad. We intervene as early as possible to protect your rights, negotiate with the lender and explore alternatives such as restructuring payments or reaching settlement agreements. Our legal expertise helps prevent unnecessary or unlawful actions and provides a clear strategy during a difficult process.

Early repayment can also create complications when selling a property, refinancing or preparing to pay off your mortgage ahead of schedule. Our conveyancing solicitors in Spain ensure that any early repayment penalties are correctly calculated, lawful and applied fairly by the bank.
