  • Sell your property

    GET THE PRICE RIGHT

    Use an agent to help set a realistic price for your property. If you price too high, your property can be on the market for months or even years and will often sell for less than could have been achieved had it been marketed at the correct price from the start.

    If you own a property in any of the areas we cover and are thinking about selling, ask us for a free appraisal.

    GET YOUR PAPERWORK IN ORDER

    To sell your property, you’ll need some basic documentation. This includes:

    • A recent nota simple from the Property Registry.
    • A receipt of payment of IBI (property tax).
    • A receipt for payment of basura (refuse collection).
    • If your property is in a community, a copy of your monthly community fees.
    • Energy performance certificate (Certificado de Eficiencia Energética/CEE). Not required if your property is occupied less than four months a year, but you must provide a written declaration.

    We can help you with all the paperwork needed, including the Property Registry and CEE inspections.

    KNOW YOUR COSTS

    • Ensure you know your costs of sale, such as: municipal tax on the increase in the value of land (Plusvalía), income tax (Impuesto sobre la Renta), mortgage cancellation fees, estate agent fees etc.  If you are asked for more than 5% for agents fees, shop around for a better deal. Ask your lawyer to check any agent contract before you sign it.
    • If your property is owned by a company, especially one domiciled offshore, calculate the costs of dissolution, taking into account any tax due on the difference between book and sales values.
    • If you intend to sell a company, work out how much corporation tax you will be liable to pay.
    • If you have inherited property in Spain, consult a lawyer to work out how much tax you will be required to pay and how to transfer title to your name.
