Hello Peter, yes you are correct - this is what I am referring to. When we brought our property last year in October, our Solicitor told us that she had sent up direct debits with our bank Sabadell for all the bills. that we opened an account with. However it looks like this bill will be posted to our address in Spain - and therein lies the problem. We have flights booked to travel in July 2021 but if the UK Government advise that we have to self isolate upon return to the UK, then due to our jobs we will not be able to go.
I am getting very worried and confused about the bills you have to pay in Spain. The solicitor that we used at the time of purchasing our property was good but is no longer interested really in helping or explaining to us re. payment of ongoing bills (she just said the DD are set up with your bank) and neither is Sabadell being helpful even though we took out a small mortgage through them to buy the property.
So far our solicitor set up the Water and Gas and also gave us the details to pay the yearly community fees - so that is all okay and sorted.
What I am a little unsure of what yearly others bills there are - we are non residents - would all of the below need to be paid as well?
IBI (yes I agree this should be paid)
Municipal Tax payment 1, 2 or 3
Murcia Region Tax Payment,
Generalitat of Valencia Tax Payment,
Income Tax payment (IRPF Model 100).
Can anybody recommend someone we can get in touch with to find out how to go about paying these bills from the U.K. if we cannot get to Spain.
Thank you in advance - I just want to be sure I am paying all the bills that need to be paid. Our property has a cadastral value of 60,000 Euros.
