Taxes and expenses when selling a property in Spain
Our team at Luxury Partners Real Estate S.L are happy to advise you regarding the taxes and expenses when selling a property in Spain.

Plusvalia – Capital Gains Tax
Every vendor must pay capital gains tax unless there is a loss. This tax is normally calculated on the years or months you have owned the property times the cadastral value of the land.
The Capital gains tax is 19% is you are a Spanish resident or member of an EU member state and 24% if you a resident of a Non EU member state.
Owners of apartments should also be aware that this will be calculated on the proportion of the land that the development stands. ( it is not a significant expense but good to know about)
