Anglès buys the land on Carrer del Molí from SAREB for 23,595 euros

The Anglès City Council has closed the acquisition of the land on Carrer del Molí, owned by the Sociedad de Gestión de Activos Procedentes de la Reestructuración Bancaria (SAREB), for an amount of 19,500 euros plus 4,095 euros in VAT, totaling 23,595 euros. This was done via direct award and resolved in three mayoral decrees that the Official Gazette of the Province of Girona published in full in edition no. 218 on November 12, 2026, under the official reference BOP-2026_0_218_9655 (p. 1-1). The document is a direct award announcement made public “for general knowledge.”

Three decrees to close the operation

The municipal government articulated the purchase in three successive resolutions, all signed by the mayor, Jordi Pibernat Casas:

• Mayoral Decree 2026DECR000919, dated July 13, 2026: resolves to acquire the land on Carrer del Molí, free of charges and encumbrances, from SAREB, for the value of nineteen thousand five hundred euros.
• Mayoral Decree 2026DECR001294, dated September 30, 2026: authorizes and arranges the expenditure of 4,095.00 euros in favor of the entity, as VAT for the acquisition.
• Mayoral Decree 2026DECR001404, dated October 21, 2026: ratifies the award through which the land was acquired.

The administrative file supporting the purchase is X2026000553. The electronically signed text is dated November 4, 2026, and is headed as a direct award announcement for the land on Carrer del Molí from SAREB.

Charge to the investment budget and identification of the seller

The expenditure is charged to the budgetary application 933 60000 “LAND INVESTMENT” of the current municipal budget, with accounting registration number RC 220260001626. It is, therefore, an investment in assets and not a current expense, which implies the registration of the asset in the municipal inventory once the purchase is formalized.

The seller is the Sociedad de Gestión de Activos Procedentes de la Reestructuración Bancaria (SAREB), identified with NIF A86602158, the entity created following the real estate and financial crisis to absorb and liquidate real estate assets from intervened credit institutions. The acquisition decree emphasizes that the land is received “free of charges and encumbrances,” a condition that protects the City Council against possible registry issues or debts associated with the property.

The operation does not include any details regarding the surface area of the land or the planned urban destination, aspects that the published text does not specify. What the announcement does establish is the formal framework: a direct award procedure, without open bidding, with SAREB as the sole counterparty.

Amount and breakdown

The amounts published in the gazette are as follows:

• Land price: 19,500 euros.
• VAT: 4,095 euros, equivalent to 21% of the price.
• Total cost of the operation: 23,595 euros.
• Budgetary application: 933 60000 “LAND INVESTMENT”.
• Expenditure fiscal year: current 2026 municipal budget.

The processing timeline spans four months, from the acquisition decree on July 13 to the ratification on October 21, and the official publication does not occur until November 12, that is, three weeks after the ratification.

Why it matters

The purchase converts a property that was until now in the hands of the “bad bank” of the real estate crisis into municipal assets, meaning the Anglès City Council now controls a plot on Molí Street that previously depended on an external agent. For readers, the operation is relevant for two reasons: it allocates 23,595 euros of public money to an investment item, and it does so via direct award with subsequent publication in the bulletin, a mechanism that reduces the information available before the decision but remains documented with three decrees and a searchable file number. The fact that the seller is SAREB links the operation to the long process of divesting real estate assets inherited from the bubble, a process that thus reaches the local level in modest amounts but with permanent effects on the municipality’s assets.
