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

It is a payment instrument the bank issues to pay for the home. Ley 187, the Housing Law (article 90.1), requires the price to be paid with the instruments or credit titles of banking legislation or any other means that is not cash, whatever the amount.

To get it, the money has to be in a bank account or branch: the bank issues the instrument and the document evidencing the payment, 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, recorded in the Registro Central de la Propiedad de Bienes Inmuebles, with any charges and with building works brought up to date.
The bank document evidencing that the money for the price exists.
If somebody signs for another person, the power of attorney that authorises them.
The home's cadastral certificate and proof of the taxes: the seller must have them paid, and anything owed on the home's purchase price settled, before signing (Ley 187, article 90.2).

The notary decides which documents your case needs.
