A Step-by-Step Guide to Buying Property in Spain as an International buyer

Buying property abroad can feel daunting, but with the right support, it’s a smooth and rewarding process. Here’s a straightforward guide for international buyers considering a move to Spain.

Step 1: Define Your Budget & Preferences

  • Decide on your ideal property type, location, and must-have features.
  • Factor in additional costs: taxes, legal fees, community charges, and possible renovations.

Step 2: Get Your Finances in Order

  • Most international buyers pay cash, but Spanish banks offer competitive mortgages to non-residents.
  • We can connect you with reputable mortgage advisors for guidance.

Step 3: Start Your Search

  • Browse listings on our website or contact us for off-market opportunities.
  • We’ll help shortlist properties that match your needs and arrange viewing trips.

Step 4: Make an Offer

  • Once you find the right property, we’ll help you make a formal offer and negotiate terms.
  • A reservation deposit (usually 5,000 Euros) secures the property.

Step 5: Legal Checks & Contracts

  • Our partner lawyers handle due diligence, ensuring the property is free of debts and legal issues.
  • You’ll sign a private purchase contract and pay a 10% deposit (minus reservation fee).

Step 6: Completion at the Notary

  • The final step is signing the deeds at the notary and paying the balance.
  • You’ll receive the keys and can start enjoying your new home!

Step 7: Post-Sale Support

  • We assist with utilities, property management, renovations, and settling in.
  • Ongoing support is always available—just ask!
