Why Legal Advice Is Essential When Selling Property in Spain

Selling a property in Spain involves more than just finding a buyer. There are taxes, legal requirements and formalities that need to be handled correctly to avoid future problems or fines.

With our guidance, you can:

Minimise your Capital Gains Tax.
Submit the correct tax declarations.
Complete the sale smoothly, even if you’re not in Spain.
Avoid common legal mistakes that can delay or block the transaction.

Our Legal Services for Sellers Include

We provide full legal support throughout the sale process. Our services include:

✅ Recommending trusted local real estate agents with minimal commission fees.
✅ Advising you on the property valuation and sale strategy recommended by the agent.
✅ Preparing all the legal documents the buyer will require.
✅ Helping you reduce Capital Gains Tax wherever legally possible.
✅ Attending the Notary appointment with you, or acting on your behalf with a Power of Attorney.

💡 Our standard fee for these services is only 0.75% of the sale price (including VAT), compared to the 0.9% commonly charged in the area.

Capital Gains Tax and Other Costs When Selling

One of the most important aspects to consider is the Capital Gains Tax. Depending on your situation and how long you’ve owned the property, there may be ways to reduce your tax liability. We will study your case and advise you on the most beneficial strategy.

We also assist with:

Plusvalía Municipal (local tax on land value increase).
Retención del 3% for non-residents (tax withholding).
NIE and bank requirements for non-Spanish sellers.

Market Outlook: Is Now a Good Time to Sell?

Before selling, ask yourself: Are you sure you want to sell? Don’t make a rushed decision based on temporary discomfort. It’s a good idea to write down the pros and cons before moving forward.

That said, the Spanish property market is currently strong, with rising prices due to high demand and a limited number of properties for sale. If you bought your home years ago, you might be looking at a very profitable return on investment.
