Legal tip 509.I made an important mistake: JUDGE SAID WHO BUYS TWO PROPERTIES IS A CONSUMER
Friday, April 22, 2011 @ 3:01 PM
In may last post, when refereing to the Totana ( Murcia) Court decission we recently obtained for one of our clients I said:
SOMEONE WHO BUYS TWO PROPERTIES IN SPAIN CANNOT BE CONSIDERED A CONSUMER
when what the Court decission said, according to concept of Consumer by the European regulations is JUST THE CONTRARY:
SOMEONE WHO BUYS TWO PROPERTIES IN SPAIN IS STILL A CONSUMER
The criteria that the Totana judge exposes in the recent Court decission for this statement are:
1.- If you buy two for renting one of them, as you can still use it, you are the final user of the object.
2.- Most importantly, if the purchases are out of your proffessional sphere, YOU ARE A CONSUMER.
So, no just two but even more, if this does not make your main source of income/proffessional activity, you are proptected by the rules of Consumers Law
Apologies for this and good luck for those who are Consumers again today!
