Selling Guide

🧾 Selling Your Property with Inmonorte – Step by Step to the Notary

Thinking about selling your home in Laredo or the Eastern Coast of Cantabria?

At Inmonorte, we’ve been helping property owners like you for over 30 years — even in complex cases like inheritances, properties with debts, or owners living abroad.

This guide explains exactly how we work — clearly, without jargon. So you’ll know from day one what to expect and how we support you right up to handing over the keys.


📍 1. First Visit and Property Valuation

The sale starts with an honest and strategic assessment. Our goal is not to promise the highest price, but the most accurate one.

🏚️ Real condition of the property
📊 Positioning versus similar listings
⚖️ Legal or community-related restrictions
🧠 We don’t make unrealistic promises. We help you make informed decisions.

✨ 2. Preparing Your Property for Sale

Before marketing a home, we make sure it looks its best. We want every property to shine from the very first photo.

📸 Professional photography
🎥 Virtual tours (to avoid unnecessary viewings)
🛋️ Tips to present your home clean, bright, and tidy
📢 Listing optimized with marketing techniques
🧲 Our goal: attract quality visits — only from serious buyers.


📄 3. Document Review and Pre-Sale Check

Anticipating problems is key. We review all documentation upfront to avoid surprises during the sale.

📝 Simple registry note and ownership
📍 Cadastral info and property debts
🏢 Community records (minutes, fees, bylaws)
📑 Required certificates: energy rating, debts, etc.
✅ Many owners discover issues once an offer arrives. We detect them early.


🔑 4. Viewings and Buyer Screening

A visit isn’t just opening the door — it’s a real sales opportunity, and we treat it as such.

👀 Discreet, punctual visits with buyer screening
💳 We verify mortgage pre-approval or payment capacity
🧑‍🏫 We address reform, legal, or technical questions
📋 We give you clear, no-nonsense feedback


💬 5. Offer, Negotiation and Commitment Deposit

Our negotiations are based on empathy, experience, and data. The commitment deposit gives structure to the process.

📈 We assess the offer: price, terms, timing
🤝 We negotiate respectfully, seeking common ground
💵 We collect the formal offer with a commitment deposit
🧩 This deposit is refunded or used in the arras contract — it protects you from indecisive buyers.


📑 6. Purchase Agreement and Legal Paperwork

Once the offer is accepted, we put everything in writing: amounts, dates, conditions — clearly defined.

🖊️ We draft or review the arras contract
📆 Reasonable and transparent timelines
💼 Proper registration of payments
⚖️ Legal assistance available if needed


🖊️ 7. Notary Coordination and Final Signing

We coordinate all parties involved to make sure signing day is calm and safe.

🏛️ We liaise with the notary chosen by the buyer
🔑 We manage key handover
🏦 We send documents to the buyer’s bank (if mortgage involved)
✅ We double-check everything is in order: certificates, debts, community info…


🧾 8. After-Sale Assistance

We stay by your side even after the sale. We know that some things may still need handling.

❌ We help with mortgage cancellation at the registry
📢 We notify the homeowners’ association of the new ownership
💡 We advise on tax declarations (capital gains, IRPF).

⚠️ Inheritance or Special Cases?

We specialize in inherited properties. If the inheritance hasn't been signed yet, or you're unsure how to sell with multiple heirs:

🤝 Trust, Support and Transparency

Every home. Every family. Every situation is different. But one thing is always true: sellers need peace of mind.

Even if you don’t live in Laredo, we handle everything for you: visits, paperwork, and signing — so you can sell without setting foot here, if you prefer.


❓ FAQ – Selling Your Home with Inmonorte

📌 When do you charge your fees at Inmonorte?
We charge our fees once we secure an offer acceptance: either upon signing the arras contract, or at the notary if no contract was signed before.

🧾 Can you help me manage the inheritance if it’s not accepted yet?
Only in specific cases. Normally, the process should be underway before listing. Contact us — we’ll advise you with no obligation.

🌍 Can I sell even if I don’t live in Laredo?
Absolutely. Many of our clients are non-residents. We coordinate everything so you can sell remotely and securely.

📤 What if I have a mortgage or debts on the property?
We’ll help you. We handle mortgage cancellation, review all debts, and work with the notary and bank to ensure everything is resolved before the signing.
