Hi
We are thinking about buying a property in spain. Can someone advice me, what taxes we need to pay and do you know someone who could do it for us? All help welcomed. Thanks

valenciatim

Are you asking about the taxes that have to be paid when you buy a property or when you own the property?

mgulatowscy

When you own. We are almost up to date will all costs of buying, thanks

Welcome to the forum
You will need to be a little more specific

Where are you buying
Will you be resident here, or will it be a holiday home

mgulatowscy

Hi
It will be mainly our holiday home and maybe we will rent it from time to time to help us with the mortgage. We plan to buy in Alicante/Murcia area.

Thanks

Mitzyboy

Well if it was me I would pay a gestoria to do it if you are not here
You will pay IBI Property Tax, like council tax
And you have to pay tax on the property as if it was rented out. I do have the figures downstairs, if someone else doesnt post up first

mgulatowscy

Thank you for that. If you will find anythig else please let me know.

Great answer! Shame it's to a different question!!!!
Did you read the thread?

Mitzyboy

Yes Mr Roach, it does help if you answer the question that has been asked rather than confuse the OP and the thread

jonboy

Never mind the question! It was one of the best replies I've yet seen

valenciatim

Maybe cos he has a vested interest?!

jonboy

I could also do with advice re taxes payable when owning a property and the name of a local Gestor. We have a place in the Gandia area.

Ah Ha!

valenciatim

Lol ! He also missed out the extra 0.5 % stamp duty on new builds!!

Mitzyboy

I have an excellent Gestor in Gandia that several people on the forums use now
PM me if required
