If you are interested in buying a property, the simple note, i.e., Nota Simple Registral( in Spain) or Certidão Permanente (in Portugal, is an essential document that you should request before making your decision.
In other words, , this document contains fundamental information about the property such as: detailed description of the property, identity of the owner,ownership title, exact location, and whether the property has any charges (i.e., mortgage loans) or debts that may burden the property.
First of all, what is the Land Registry?
Primarily, the Land Registry records all acts and contracts relating to the ownership and other real estate rights which may affect public and/or private property and other real estate rights (acts, contracts,administrative or judicial decisions, etc.). In addition, certain administrative concessions and public property may be registered.
