Abandoned property? Vacant apartments?

We localise the heirs for free!

At ABA Consult, we have over 10 years of experience in locating heirs for abandoned properties and facilitating their recovery.

Our journey began in 2015 when a friend told us about an abandoned property in the Los Boliches neighborhood of Fuengirola.

Emma & Sarah, UK.

We had no idea we had any rights to our late father’s property in Torremolinos until ABA Consult got in touch. They were clear, supportive, and professional. They walked us through every step of the legal process, which was not simple. Thanks to their hard work, we were able to claim what was ours but also managed to sell the property thanks to them.

Mark & Annieke, Marbella.

The house two doors down from us in Los Monteros, Marbella, had been abandoned for years. Then squatters moved in, and things got worse. We reached out to ABA Consult, and they handled everything—tracking down the rightful heirs, dealing with the legal mess, and getting the squatters out. 6 months later, the house was back on the market.

Carlos M. Fuengirola.

As president of our comunidad in Fuengirola, I was struggling with an abandoned apartment that had become a problem—squatters, unpaid fees, and complaints from neighbors. I contacted Lou from ABA Consult, They found the heirs and handled the legal work, and were able to pay the debt that the apartment owed to the community

Why does it matter?

In Spain, when a foreign national passes away, the Spanish administration does not notify heirs living abroad about any issues related to their inherited property. As a result, heirs may be completely unaware that their property has unpaid bills, outstanding debts, or is even at risk of being seized by the court.

Additionally, abandoned properties are at high risk of illegal occupation (okupas), which can result in long and costly legal battles for rightful owners. Squatting is a serious problem that affects not only the property itself but also the safety and well-being of the surrounding community.

Thanks to our completely free process, we help locate heirs, navigate legal complexities, and bring properties back to life benefiting both the rightful owners and the local community. We also offer rewards for those who help us identify abandoned properties.

How does it work?

The process is simple:

  1. If you know of an abandoned property near your home that belongs to a foreign national, contact us with the details.
  2. We will take it from there—researching, locating heirs, and handling all legal matters.
  3. If we successfully find the heirs and reach an agreement, we will reward you with €500.
 

This reward applies to both individuals and communities who assist us in identifying abandoned properties.

What problems do abandoned properties create?

When someone passes away without a will or known heirs, managing their property can become a complicated process. These apartments can lead to various issues for the building, neighbors, and the city.

Deterioration & Neglect

Without regular maintenance, properties deteriorate rapidly, causing structural issues, leaks, electrical hazards, and unsafe living conditions.

Security Risks

Legal & Financial Burdens for the Community

Heirless apartments accumulate debts like unpaid community fees and taxes, creating financial burdens for neighbors.

Government Intervention & Costs

When heirs aren't found, properties revert to the state through lengthy legal processes, creating financial burdens for local authorities.
