Good day. You will not be able to sell your share without your husband’s notice and consent.

Hello, Elena.
Unbeknownst to your spouse, you will not be able to sell your share to a third party, since the property belongs to both of you and both parties must agree.
Sincerely, Maria.

Good day, Elena.
Unfortunately, the sale procedure takes place with the agreement of both parties, that is, if you and your ex-husband are entered into the actual act of buying and selling, in other words "escritura", then the sale of real estate is not possible without his consent. If I can be of any help, please contact.

Good evening, Elena!
Sell your share without the consent of the second owner, you can not. The notary will necessarily require his personal presence or power of attorney to sell his share. You can offer him to redeem his share. He is the first preindent. And if you get the price, this will be the best way out of this situation.

Good day.
No - it is not possible, the purchase and sale in Spain is made at the Notary and there must be 2 equity holders on the signature or there must be a notarized power of attorney with the right to sell.
