Just saw a programme on telly where a couple retired to Spain and spent a lot of money doing up a property. Then the government told that they were going to lose approx 3/4 of their land under the Land Grab law for urban renewal.
The sting in the tail is that they are asking the couple to pay £50,000 towards development of the land that they had confiscated.

As far as I can remember the couple were given 2 options: keep all the land but pay £85,000 or lose 3/4 and pay £50,000.

I had no idea this totally unfair and unjust law existed in Spain.

"I had no idea this totally unfair and unjust law existed in Spain"

Countless articles in newspapers and dozens of mentions on News & other Television programs over the last few years.Plus much discussion in various popular property forums.

Where have you been living!
