Advice for art investors
INVEST IN ART
Have you ever wondered what the difference is between a valuable artwork of art and one that is not? Why can the work of one artist be valued in millions of euros, while other, similar ones are worth much less, even those by the same artist? How do art galleries and auction houses operate? What are the rules on legality in the art market?
The art market is a highly attractive safe-haven investment, especially at times when financial investments are high-risk for low returns. At IRÍAS LAWYERS we can uncover the small secrets that mark the difference between a good investment and a failure.
In addition, we provide advice on art for investors, in order to give our clients enjoyment, profitability, tax breaks, confidentiality and the security coming from investing in art by the great masters.
Investment, valuations, division of funds…
OTHER SERVICES
Investing in historical buildings: Although Madrid and Barcelona are the most attractive cities for investment in this type of asset, the financial crisis and high maintenance costs have led to many buildings with the most tradition and history in Spain being sold, in the hope that investors, especially international ones, will buy them. IRIAS LAWYERS knows the market and has become an excellent tool for investors committed to such assets.
Inheritances with art assets: When valuing an inheritance with art assets,, IRIAS LAWYERS has all the tools required for correct valuation and division of funds from the inheritance.
