·            It helps you make the best decision as to how much to borrow
·            It allows you time to find a mortgage that best suits your requirements so that you avoid overpaying
·            You will have a better idea of how much you can spend on your Spanish property
·            You can work out the likely future financial implications of your purchase.
Remember, mortgages may run for many years so you will have to live with the consequences of your decision for years to come.
