Your clients check the house before the deposit. With your own discount code.
For lawyers, gestorías, mortgage brokers, estate and buyer's agents, currency specialists and advisers working with people buying a home in Spain. We give you a personal discount code for your clients and a report — in English or Spanish — that spots what a viewing won't show: whether the house is legally a dwelling, flood zones, planning, real square metres and price.

Fewer surprises after the deposit
A villa listed as a house that the Cadastre records as "sports" use; 130 m² advertised against 228 m² on record; off-plan flats with a petrol station next door. Real cases our reports flagged.
A discount for your clients
Your own code, so your clients pay less and you add value to your service. It also lets us know which partners bring us clients.
In English, for foreign buyers
Reports and the nota simple explained in plain English: ideal for British, Nordic, Dutch or Polish clients buying a second home on the coast or the islands.
Official sources, reviewed by hand
30+ checks from the Cadastre, MITECO, CSN, IGN and planning data, with every source cited. A person reviews each report before it is emailed, within 24 hours.
41 things to check before buying a home in Spain
Many buyers think they can check it all themselves. In practice the data is spread across the Cadastre, the Land Registry, the Ministry for the Ecological Transition, the Nuclear Safety Council, the National Geographic Institute, regional planning and town halls, each with its own maps and its own language. Missing just one can cost far more than the house's renovation.
Legal status and land
- Cadastral use (is it legally a home?)
- Planning classification of the land
- Urban, developable or rustic land
- Livestock trails (vías pecuarias)
- River public domain (DPH)
- Coastal public domain and easements (Costas)
- Minimum habitable floor area
- Building inspection status (ITE/IEE)
- Land Registry: owner, mortgages, seizures, easements (Land Registry Study)
Natural hazards
- River flooding (100-year flood zone)
- Sea and coastal flooding
- Wildfire: forest next to the house
- Wildfire history of the area
- Areas burned in recent fires
- Active fires detected by satellite
- Earthquake hazard
- Radon gas
- Dams upstream
Installations and surroundings
- High-voltage power lines
- Electrical substations and energy plants
- Wind farms
- Solar farms
- Nuclear power plants
- Thermal power plants
- Macro-farms (intensive livestock)
- Factories and industrial land
- Landfills and incinerators
- Petrol stations next to the home
- Vacant plots next door (what will be built?)
- Noisy roads and motorways
- Railways
- Airports
The house and the price
- Real square metres vs the listing
- Age of the building and its parts
- Estimated renovation cost
- Asking price vs real sales nearby
- Indicative price range
- Estimated rent
- Real buying costs (taxes, notary, registry)
- Annual costs (IBI, community, waste)
- Facade photo and official record
The one you forget is the one that matters: a power line behind the garden, a macro-farm just down the road, a vacant plot next door where a block will go up, a ravine that floods once every few years, or a "villa" that the Cadastre doesn't record as a home. Hogarfax checks all of them for the exact property, with the official source of each one.

Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to become a Hogarfax partner?
Nothing. There is no fee or commitment: we give you a discount code for your clients and you decide when to recommend us.
What discount do my clients get?
We agree it with you depending on your clients and volume. The code works for the full report (€24.90 VAT included) and for the report with the Land Registry Study (€89).
What does the buyer get?
A PDF report, in English or Spanish, with 30+ official checks: cadastral use, real square metres against the listing, flood zones, planning, risks, surroundings, an indicative valuation and buying costs. With the Land Registry Study we also request the nota simple and explain it in English.
Does it replace a lawyer or the bank's valuation?
No. Hogarfax spots what doesn't add up in the official records and what to ask before the deposit; a lawyer and an approved valuation are still needed. That is why it fits your service so well.
