It is important to realize that the home buying process in Spain is different to the processes in many other countries. In Spain – for example – the notary plays a very important role on signing the deeds. Moreover many properties that are for sale in Spain are having problems with their documentation. Many times these problems can be rather easily solved but in order to succeed you need a registered Spanish lawyer who knows how to act given today´s changing laws and rules. Of course you could also choose a ¨gestor¨ (administrator) to help you, but what would happen if something goes wrong? What about the professional responsibility?

Interesting prices for any type of investor in Spanish real estate varying from a simple village house to a luxury retreat or a mansion along the coast as well as safeguards in the Spanish judicial system make Spain an ideal place for foreigners to acquire a second residence. Spain´s general image has been improving since lawyers, notaries and mercantile or asset registrars all offer guarantees that did not exist in the past. Wherever you start your house buying process in Spain, our lawyers office in Torre del Mar and Torrox will help you how to buy a house in Nerja, Torre del Mar, Torrox, Axarquia or in any place in the province of Malaga or even in the whole of Spain.

    Now that prices are low, it is an excellent time to make a real estate investment

    However, non-Spanish buyers still have to fulfill a number of requirements.

    1. You need a Spanish tax number for foreigners
    This tax number is also known as the ¨NIE¨. You need this tax number in order to pay taxes and to get the property registered on your name. The laywers of our offices in Torre del Mar or Torrox-Costa will be more than happy to help you with your NIE-application.

    2. A percentage to be deposited in the Spanish Public Treasury
    The buyer is obliged to retain 3 percent of the property price if the seller is a non-Spanish and not fiscally resident in Spain. This amount can be claimed back by the vendor in a later stage. Please do not worry,  we will sort this out for you.

    3. Tax on capital transfers
    The buyer has to pay Spanish tax on capital transfers. At the moment of writing this article this is 8 per cent of the purchase price. However, since in Spain the taxable basis and acquisition values rarely match, the buyer has the option to pay taxes either on the fiscal or acquisition value. The Treasury Department will produce an additional assessment,which can be challenged in order to avoid overpayment of taxes on a higher current market value.

    If a property is acquired directly from a developer, the buyer only pays for document and registration fees at 1.5 percent of the total purchase, since the 10 percent IVA (VAT) would have been paid by the property developer.

      How to buy a house in Spain – avoid problems by contracting the right people

      .

      Best legal advice concerning how to buy a house in Nerja, Torre del Mar, Torrox, Axarquia, Malaga or anywhere in Spain. Because of the many problems with property documentation in Spain due to many reasons that vary from ignorance to corruption in the past, it is best to follow these steps when buying a property in Spain. The notary is having an important role when buying a house in Spain. For the rest we would advice you to contract a Spanish registered lawyer. Some people contract an administrator (¨gestor¨) or just somebody who speaks both Spanish and English. This is not the wisest thing to do! Apart from somebody that speaks decent English you will need somebody that will guarantee that you will not run any risk, not only during the home buying process but also after the house buying process.

      STEP 1: RESERVATION OF THE PROPERTY
      In Spain everybody is allowed to offer houses for sale. You will notice that ¨your¨ house may also be for sale through other local and even nation-wide estate agents. But offering houses for sale is allowed to any person who made an agreement with the seller. Think about the local shop, the local bar owner, a house wife working from home on the internet. For this reason we strongly recommend you to formalise your offer on the property paying an amount to be agreed on your lawyer´s clients account. He or she will than make sure that the vendor will remove the property from the market, thus protecting your interest to purchase.

      STEP 2: SEARCHING PROCESS
      Whilst the property is “reserved” in your name, your lawyer will carry out all the necessary searches and investigations of the property with the corresponding authorities in order to ensure that the property you are purchasing is legal and free from any charges, debts or encumbrances. You will also get the guarantee that the property has the necessary Title Deeds and that the vendors are the rightful owners. You may already see: many bad stories we have all seen in the international press regarding (serious) problems that can arise when buying property in Spain can simply be avoided if you contract the right professionals that will help you how to buy a house in Torre del Mar, Torrox, Nerja, Axarquia, Malaga or anywhere in Spain!

      STEP 3: PRIVATE CONTRACT
      Once the searches are complete, and we are absolutely certain the property is legally declared in the best conditions to purchase, a Private Contract is prepared and signed by both buyer and seller. This private contract sets out all the details of the agreement, payment terms and completion date. During this stage the buyer puts down a non-returnable deposit, which is usually 10% of the purchase price, less the holding deposit paid at the reservation stage. At the same time, we collect our professional fees (plus VAT) the balance to be paid upon completion. Should it for any reason not be possible to sign the Private Contract at this stage , we would collect only half our professional fees. Important detail: thanks to this Private Contract you will be well-protected: if the vendor cannot deliver the property within the conditions stated in the Private Contract, you have got the right to get your deposit refunded in full plus an additional damage restitution of the same amount.

      STEP 4: COMPLETION
      The Spanish Notary plays an important role in this stage. Buyer and vendor sign the title Deeds (Escritura de compraventa) of the property in his or her presence. The Notary is an official of the State who makes sure that the contracts are legal. His or her duty is to certify that the contract has been signed, the money paid and the purchaser and seller have been advised of their tax obligations.

      STEP 5: FINAL TITLE AND REGISTRATION
      You have become the owner of the property now. While you may be celebrating your successful purchase drinking champaign or start moving in, we will do the final step: we will register the property at the Land Registry office so that you will appear as the new legal owner. It usually takes about three months to get the necessary document returned from the Land Registry Office. We collect this document for our clients.

      On your behalf we also change the following bills within our standard service

      Water, electricity, community Fees (if it exist), council tax, rubbish invoice, etc.
