How buying works in Spain
Factual notes on the purchase process — no advice, always verify the current rules with your own advisers.
- Foreign buyers need an NIE (foreigner identification number) before completing a purchase
- Purchase costs typically add 10–14% on top of the price: transfer tax (ITP) or VAT on new build, notary, registry and legal fees
- Transfer tax varies by region — roughly 6–10% for resale property; new build carries 10% VAT plus stamp duty
- A notary executes the deed; registration in the Registro de la Propiedad completes the transfer
- Non-resident owners file an annual non-resident income tax return

Every listing publishes its asking price. Sellers add gross yield, monthly cashflow and cap rate as actual figures, as a projection with the underlying assumptions, or share them on request. Every figure is attributed to its source — Onora does not verify or endorse them.
Does Onora help me buy in Spain?
Onora is an introduction platform, not a broker. We verify both sides, publish the data, and connect you directly with the seller. You can also engage an independent local buyer's agent through the Find Your Agent directory.
