If you can find out the property ID: Finca, Libro, Folio, etc. You can request a report from the Registro General de Propiedad. You can order it online and then go pick it up at one of their offices. You can do it yourself or aak your Lawyer to do it, they can get it done faster but not as cheap. If you are worried about maybe a property you are trying to buy doesn't really belong to the seller, something that happens a lot, then I would consult with a good lawyer.
