Professionals and institutions
When an owner or a borrower dies and their heirs are unknown, the matter comes to a standstill. We trace the heirs and handle the estate so that it can be resolved.
For property managers
An owner has died and the association isn't getting paid? We find the heir.
We find the heir and settle the outstanding debt with the owners' association. All we need is the address of the property. Our service comes at no cost to the association, including any court costs.

Strategic resolution of NPL/NPLJ portfolios. From deadlock to liquidity.
When a borrower dies, mortgage enforcement proceedings are drawn out considerably, because the court must meet the requirements of Article 791 of the Spanish Civil Procedure Act (LEC). At Arias Advocats we get ahead of this by issuing a legal heir identification report, setting out the order of succession of the relatives we have located, for submission to the court.
