I hope u realise that you'll need 2 trips to the notary on 2 different days - the first is where u get interviewed by the notary alone, to confirm that u understand the mortgage implications. If u don't understand the contents, the bank is informed and have to redo/change the paperwork, etc. before u get interviewed again. Only when u pass, does the seller get involved, usually at a later date. New rules from 1 or 2 years ago. If everything is done in one sitting, it means due diligence wasn't followed.
I cant see that rule brought in within the last 2 years as everything was done at distance due to covid. Is it different if you are a cash buyer?
I had the same conversation with our solicitor when we bought. I said once I have paid they could stop for a few days to clear out but he assured me that doesn't happen in Spain. Thankfully it didn’t.

Funny enough the guy has already pulled out all the white goods - and scrapped them 'cos they were old and rubbish' - he had a big pile of caes and stuff outside the house when we saw it last time.
When we last saw the house it was .. ok to move in tomorrow, everything was still there, sofas, cupboards, beds, wardrobes, paintings on the wall etc etc.
Oh we'll be renting for at least the whole of February, we are working - the house has been empty for 3 years, it needs a good clean, and the electric has been suspended to stop okupas, so I need to sort that out before we can move in.
