If you're buying property in Spain — whether it's a luxury villa, holiday home, or your full-time forever place — there's one step most people forget about...

Setting up a Spanish will.

This isn’t just a legal add-on. It’s one of the most important (and overlooked) ways to protect your property, your family, and your investment long after the purchase is done.

In this week’s episode of The Costa Property Podcast, Sandra sits down again with our property lawyer Regina Martín from Benalmádena Lawyers. She’s one of the most trusted legal experts on the Costa del Sol — and she’s walking us through exactly why you need a Spanish will, and what can go wrong if you don’t have one in place.

Tune in to discover:

✅ What actually happens if you pass away in Spain without a will — and why it’s more complex than you think

✅ How Spanish inheritance laws differ from your home country — and what that means for your family

✅ Whether your foreign will is valid in Spain (and why having both might be the safest route)

✅ How to protect your partner, especially if you’re unmarried or not listed on the title

✅ What goes in your “life folder”  and how this simple step can save your family months of stress
