Hi Tricia

I would get back in touch with the company you used to buy the property and ask them to get all your utilities etc in your name.

Hi Tricia,

Are you sure you don’t have an NIE?

If you have purchased a property in Spain, you need to have an NIE number by the time you sign the deeds of purchase before the notary, an event known as the escritura.

Did you use a solicitor?

Regards,

Si
