General information about Spain and Spanish properties
Those pages featured the “F.A.Q.” (frequently asked questions) of the now disappeared INSERT Spanish properties web-site. Here, you will find answers to some very general questions.
The items without publication data have been written between Y2K and the end of 2002. Some may be somewhat obsolete, thus not offering an accurate information anymore. Though I do my best to provide safe information and links, I cannot guarantee the information found on pages linked here, when they are originated out of the INSERT team.
