This is a very valid point Maria and I too am hoping that the mortgage situation will help to improve the title deed anomalies. Sadly I think it will take such a long time for things change in this way that I will probably have retired before it happens. It needs Government intervention to get the checks and balances in place but in a country where probably half of the national population haven't got a habitation license, yet normal life still goes on, it is hard to get over to anyone here the importance of this for foreigner purchasers. My biggest frustration is the language barrier which hinders my ability to fully get to grips with both the legislation and finding the right people to lobby. I am learning but is is çok, çok zor!
