2025 is beginning to take its first steps and, in line with its predecessor, one theme that will be present throughout the year is the situation of the real estate sector.
At MAM Solicitors we have been assisting our foreign clients for over 30 years, both in the process of buying and selling property and subsequently in the fiscal and legal management of the same.
With the beginning of the year there always starts to be some movement, some interest and it is a time when many of our clients or referrals contact us for advice on buying property in Spain.
Something we always insist on is the importance of having a specialised lawyer acting on your behalf to facilitate all the procedures related to the purchase of a property in Spain, both before and after the purchase, as well as all the administrative and fiscal procedures.
We explain it to you.
Why should you rely on a lawyer when buying property in Spain from abroad?
The Spanish legal and tax system can be a maze for those unfamiliar with it. For example, many foreigners are unfamiliar with the applicable taxes, the obligatory formalities and the declarations that need to be filed with the tax authorities. This is particularly relevant if the property is intended for holiday rental, as it involves specific tax obligations.
Having a professional help you avoid costly mistakes and unexpected situations that could affect your investment. In addition, the purchase process itself requires several previous steps, such as:
- Verify the ownership of the property.
- Confirming that the property is free of encumbrances or debts.
- Presenting the necessary documentation once the sale has been finalised.
- Ensure that the property has all the required permits, such as the First Occupancy Licence.
It is also essential to receive advice on annual taxes, which can vary depending on whether or not the owner resides in Spain. This type of information avoids unpleasant tax surprises.
