Last year my brother bought a place in Spain. He told both the solicitor and the developer up-front that he would only purchase the property on the basis that there would be no "money under the table" involved. They both agreed to his terms. However, a couple of days before completing the purchase the solicitor informed him that the developer would not sell to him unless he provided an amount of undeclared cash. At that point he had no choice but to agree to the developer's demands because his furniture was paid for in full and was due to be delivered. They get you no matter what!!!
