If you’re a foreigner who wants to buy property in Alicante without flying to Spain, you’re not alone. In fact, many international buyers complete their entire purchase remotely using Power of Attorney (POA).
At Borderless Lawyers, we handle 100% of the legal process for you — so you can buy safely from anywhere in the world.
🧾 What Is a Power of Attorney for Property?
A Power of Attorney (Poder Notarial) is a legal document that lets a lawyer act on your behalf in Spain.
It authorizes us to:
-
Get your NIE
-
Open a Spanish bank account
-
Sign the arras contract
-
Sign the final notary deed
-
Pay property taxes
-
Register the property in your name
✅ All done without you needing to travel.
🌍 How to Sign a POA from Outside Spain
You can sign the Power of Attorney:
-
At a Spanish consulate in your country
-
At a local notary abroad (we send the draft in Spanish + translation)
-
In Spain (if you happen to be visiting)
Once signed, the POA is:
-
Apostilled (if signed outside the EU)
-
Couriered to us in Spain
-
Used for all legal steps on your behalf
🛡️ Is It Safe?
Yes — the POA only authorizes actions you agree to, and can be limited to:
-
A specific property
-
A specific date
-
A specific notary act
💡 We tailor the POA to your needs and explain it clearly in your language.
⚖️ Why Use POA to Buy in Alicante?
-
Avoid travel costs and delays
-
Move quickly when a good property appears
-

Many of our clients never enter Spain until after closing — everything is done securely and efficiently.
