How to Buy Property with Crypto
Our step-by-step process takes you from initial consultation to property ownership, with full legal compliance at every stage.
We meet online to understand your situation, discuss your budget and confirm the process is right for you. No obligations.
- Zoom / Google Meet / WhatsApp
- Budget and timeline discussion
- Overview of the full buying process
We present properties matched to your budget and preferences. Once you choose, a reservation agreement secures the property while the process moves forward.
- In-person or virtual viewings
- Reservation deposit secures the property
- No pressure — take the time you need
Our legal partner verifies the property’s legal status — ownership, debts, permits. At the same time, our licensed partner verifies your identity and source of funds, a standard requirement similar to opening a bank account. Both steps run in parallel.
- Land registry and ownership check
- Building permits and debt review
- Identity and source of funds verification
- NIE assistance if required
- Fully online — no branch visits needed
You send your funds to our licensed partner. They are converted at the market rate and transferred in EUR to your Spanish bank account (we help you open one if needed). You then sign the preliminary purchase agreement (arras) and transfer 10% of the price to the seller, locking in the deal.
- Conversion at confirmed market rate
- Spanish bank account setup included if needed
- 10% deposit to the seller secures the deal
- Closing date agreed by both parties
- All compliance documents prepared
You transfer the remaining purchase price to the seller. Luumare Estate compiles and submits all required documentation to the notary — proof of funds, compliance records, and conversion confirmation.
- Remaining balance transferred via bank transfer
- Full compliance package submitted to notary
- All parties confirmed ready for signing
You sign the deed at the notary. Our legal partner is present throughout, explains every document and protects your interests. The property is yours from the moment you sign. We handle land registry, utilities, and community fees.
