Re: Left holding the baby

Apologies for making that particular assumption.

Likewise I was far from being the "wealthy tourist who is appalled at poverty and then decides to holiday in a poor country" (that particular visit...

I'm guessing you haven't seen much of Eastern Europe?

Re: Purchase of a property from/through corporate vehicle(s)

This seems a good explanation of how the various titles fit together.... http://www.howto.co.uk/abroad/spanish-law/professional_people/

Re: Purchase of a property from/through corporate vehicle(s)

I'd say the best person to ask would be you Gestoria or lawyer. Not worth taking chances without the proper advice in my opinion.

Re: Travel industry in Canada
