What is the manager's check and how do you get it?

It is the payment instrument the bank issues to pay for the home. The Ley General de la Vivienda (article 70) requires the full price to be paid at signing before the notary, with a payment instrument issued by a banking institution.

To get it, the money has to be at a bank branch: the bank issues the instrument and the document evidencing that the money exists, and that document is shown to the notary.

Before handing over any money, confirm with your bank and the notary which instrument matches your transaction and how the payment will be made at signing.

How the price and the payment are documented

What paperwork you need

There is no single checklist for everybody, but the notary starts from this:

The identity and legal capacity of the buyer and the seller.
The title to the home and its entry in the Property Registry, with any charges on it.
The bank document evidencing that the money for the price exists.
If somebody signs for another person, the power of attorney that authorises them.
Proof of the taxes each party has to pay.

The notary decides which documents your case needs.
