Hi

Anybody completed NIE & Completion of Purchase using PoA and any problems/ advice on the process?

Thanks

Yes me...absolutely no problems and essential really as i was in UK and it speeded things up. Just ensure you instruct lawyer what they can do for you and what they cannot. Put it in writing. For example POA just for purchase not for setting up direct debits without first informing you.

I used POA signed in Nov 2001 and my solicitor completed for in Feb 2002 for my 1st house in Manilva, we then picked the keys up from the show house. No problems he did NIE, power, water and wills signed when we next saw him. He charged 24 euros for POA and I think it was signed in front of the notary.

For my apartment in DV we came over and signed so we could snag and get furniture in etc., we used same solicitor. We would have used POA again if needed.

If fact with POA he/she has to act in your best interest.

Same here, used lawyer with POA as could'nt come out to Spain due to work.  Went very smooth and was e-mailed and congratulated on the day of signing. Very pleased the way things were dealt with.
