Owning a property together can become a problem when the owners disagree. This page covers co-ownership, joint ownership, pro indiviso ownership, división de cosa común and extinción de condominio: how to end or divide shared ownership, sell jointly owned property or force a sale. It is for heirs, couples who separate and business partners with a Spanish property. English-speaking registered lawyers explain the options and act in court if needed. Some older lists and lawyer pages call this service “Co-ownership Termination”.
Each co-owner holds a share of the whole property, and no one owns a particular room or part. Decisions on use, rent or sale can then be hard to take. Co-ownership often arises through inheritance or a separation, see divorce.
An auction can bring a low price, so a lawyer often attends it for the client. Taxes depend on the route, see capital gains tax, property sale. A transfer to one owner without a sale is described under property title transfer. Problems with the owners' association are covered under property rights and disputes.
Shared ownership in undivided shares of the same property.
In general nobody has to stay in shared ownership, so a co-owner can ask the court to end it. The outcome depends on the case.
Not if everyone agrees. A deed before a notary can be enough.
It depends on the agreement or ruling. One spouse may keep it and buy out the other, or it may be sold.
Possibly a plusvalía and tax on a profit. A lawyer or tax adviser can say which apply.

He gave informed advice, described the different options and indicated the costs of each. Very professional, and I am very satisfied.
I am hugely grateful to the lawyer for the support he gave me through the recent sale of my house, which turned out to be complicated. More than once it seemed the deal could collapse because of obstacles from outside, yet his persistence and practical approach proved invaluable. Whatever the hour, even around midnight, he was working to keep things moving and answering my many questions with patience and expertise. His professionalism renewed my trust in the legal process, and he was by far the most efficient solicitor I could have had. He handled absolutely everything from the first step to the last, with great knowledge and helpfulness. Without his work I would still own a Spanish property I no longer wanted, which was causing me a great deal of stress and worry.
This service put me in touch with the lawyer. My separation is a very messy one, and I needed a lawyer I could rely on. He has paid close attention to my case and steered me in the right direction. Unlike most of the lawyers I contacted earlier, he began work straight away and, importantly, has always kept communication open. The case is far from over, but I am fairly sure he will carry it through to the end.
I spent almost a year working with the lawyer on buying out my former partner's share of the home we owned together. Right away I was impressed by how quickly she replied and how much she cared about my case. It was a very challenging matter, yet she grasped the legal intricacies and explained complicated points clearly and patiently. She kept a high level of professionalism, updated me at each stage and left me feeling supported and well advised. Her command of property law was evident, and the case ended successfully. What set her apart was her personal approach and real commitment to my best interests; I trusted her abilities and am grateful for her guidance from beginning to end. I highly recommend her to anyone needing legal assistance, as her expertise and professionalism make her stand out in her field.
The lawyer knew what had to be done, and I felt very confident in her approach. She organised the power of attorney, all in a single day. Eventually she reached my wife and, despite plenty of obstacles, got my house onto the market. I am certain no other Spanish lawyer could have done better.
The lawyer was so amazingly helpful, assisting me remotely while I was in Haiti and in person when I visited Spain. She has a fantastic personal manner and is super approachable, her English is flawless, and I would 100% use her again for future legal advice in Spain.
He was very responsive and went through the details in depth.
Outstanding service and a very responsive lawyer.
We had a very good collaboration. The lawyer was very supportive and told me each time a step of the process was completed. Her English is very good, so I could communicate with her very well. I would recommend her at any time.
I only wanted advice from a Spanish legal expert who knows Spanish law on selling property in Spain, where I was a part owner, and on applying for an NIF. The lawyer gave that advice fluently in English, on time and in a professional manner. The advice was accurate and I could not have asked for anything more. She is a true professional in every sense, and I hope she keeps giving expert advice to all the clients she meets through this service.
I cannot thank this lawyer enough and am so grateful I found her. She answered my emails extremely quickly and dealt sympathetically with all my concerns in a highly stressful situation. I feel she was excellent value for money, and she handled a complex issue in a calm and professional way that reassured me. When something was unclear she took the time to explain it, patiently and clearly, and recommended the most appropriate course of action. I would not hesitate to recommend her.
The service was very helpful and simple to use. What removed my fear of hiring a legal service was how open, transparent and fairly priced it was, and I would recommend it.
