If he does everything he should when you complete the purchase he should have no need of a POA to deal with mail (are you using him as your postal address?) and you really should do your own tax returns unless your affairs are complex, and again would not need a POA to do that.

Must just point out that I would not consult a lawyer in Spain unless I was locked up accused of some dastardly crime!...

Hi PeterC,

Good advice about cancelling the POA or at least having the papers in your own possession.

Can you explain how to go about doing your own tax returns?

So I will have to rely on lawyers, I don't speak Spanish and my English is not good enough either (I always translate my texts here).
I have been working for German lawyers and notaries for over 40 years. So I have a certain trust in the judiciary, even in the Spanish one :-)

Have a nice evening!
Andy

"Can you explain how to go about doing your own tax returns?"

I total up my income each year, then using the Agencia Tributaria website fill in the form - this year it is Renta 2020 as it is for the year before the return. There are videos, a lot of explanatory stuff, and most of what is needed is available in English.

I would only think about using a gestor if I had bought or sold property in that year, or had a more complex situation like rental income or being self-employed.
