Frequently Asked Questions
Is Barcelona a good place to invest in real estate?
Barcelona remains one of Europe's strongest real estate investment markets. Strong tourism demand, limited supply in prime areas, growing tech and business sectors, and an exceptional quality of life continue to drive both capital appreciation and rental yields. Prime areas typically see 3–6% gross rental yields with steady capital growth.
What are the taxes on property investment in Catalonia?
Key taxes include: Transfer Tax (ITP) of 10% on resale properties, VAT (IVA) of 10% on new builds plus 1.5% stamp duty, annual property tax (IBI), and income tax on rental income (19% for EU residents, 24% for non-EU). Non-resident owners also pay an imputed income tax. We work with specialist tax advisors to optimise your structure.
What rental yields can I expect in Sitges or Costa Brava?
Holiday rental properties in Sitges and the Costa Brava can achieve gross yields of 4–8% depending on location, property quality and management. Long-term rentals typically yield 3–5%. Note that tourist licence regulations vary by municipality — our advisory includes guidance on licence availability and compliance.
Can non-residents buy property in Spain?
Yes, there are no restrictions on foreign ownership of property in Spain. You will need a NIE (foreigner identification number), which we help you obtain. Financing is available to non-residents, typically up to 60–70% loan-to-value. The Golden Visa programme, which offered residency for investments over €500,000, ended in April 2025.
