Anyone know of a good solicitor to deal with the purchase of property in Kabila?

You could try http://www.despeville.co.uk/ they helped me on PV and advised me to run of which I was grateful.

I can highly recommend Grace & Co from Warrington they have been fantastic representing the buyers group at Playa Vista

I'm new to all this. Thinking about going for one of the apartments at Kabila. Possibly a top floor 2 bed with solarium. I like the idea of a jacuzzi too (nothing dodgy mind)

Just wondering what I can expect legal costs to be approx - any ideas?

I'm trying to find out how much the investment would cost in total (assuming the apartment costs £68k)

Any help would be appreciated!

Got this from a website:

Should allow for around 5% of the purchase price.

This is made up as follows:-

Registration fees 2.5%
Notary's Tax 0.5%
Notary's fees 1.0% to a max of 2,500Dh
Land registry 1.0%
Sundry expenses 2000 Dh

You should also allow for the cost of a solicitor. I've not bought in Morocco before, but my solicitor for Bulgaria cost 1800 Euro

Fadesa told me to add 4% to purchase price to cover notary, fees etc

Thanks for the replies.

Any other estimates, especially for independent legal advice?

Are you all planning on using an independent solicitor?

how about people band together as a group use one Solicitor would the group get a discount from them for their services

[CARLYWOO]

Mcneillee we have one at playa Vista who did a group discount Grace & Co Warrington

I'm up for clubbing in for a solicitor.

I like the solicitor idea. I have not appointed one yet. Please post any ideas.

Me too (once my AP4 allocation has been confirmed!) - sounds like a good idea.

[mcneilee]

so might be a good idea if enough people show interest

[CARLYWOO]

If people want to PM me their details I can look inot it with the solicitor we are using for PV the costs for that are £100 each to look over, give relevant advice and review contracts then if we want to proceed and are happy its £800 overall to complete etc

My agent has suggested a company called CBA Law from Norwich, who dealt with alot at Playa vista. He said it should cost around £1000. I would be up for saving some cash on a group deal as well.
