Guide to buying a property in Spain from France

If you are French and thinking of buying a property in Spain, there are a few steps you need to take. AGENCE OCCITANE presents this guide to buying a property in Spain from France. I'm sure you'll find it very interesting. Among the main points to take into account, we highlight:

1. Request the Foreigner Identity Number (NIE): This number is mandatory to buy a property in Spain and will identify you in the purchase-sale contract. To obtain it, you must apply for it at the Spanish consulate in France or at the immigration office in Spain.
2. Define the budget : Before you start looking for properties, you must establish how much you are willing to spend. Keep in mind that in addition to the price of the property, you will have to pay taxes, notary fees and real estate agency fees.
3. Look for houses for sale in Spain online : You can search on real estate websites in Spain or in France. Use a property search engine that allows you to select your preferences: location on the Spanish Mediterranean coast, size, number of rooms, sea views, etc.
4. Arrange Viewings : Once you've found a few properties that interest you, it's important to visit them in person to see if they meet your expectations.
5. Negotiate the price : Once you've found the property you're interested in, it's time to negotiate the price with the owner or real estate agent. Please note that the price may be negotiable, especially if the property has been on the market for some time.
6. Open a bank account in Spain to pay housing expenses and taxes.
7. Hire a notary : When you have agreed on the price, you must hire a notary to draw up the purchase-sale contract. The notary will verify that all parties involved comply with the legal requirements.
8. Make the change of name of the supplies and local taxes of the house and register the property in the corresponding Property Registry . In addition to the price of the property and the notary fees, you must pay the corresponding taxes, such as the Property Transfer Tax and Documented Legal Acts (ITP) and the Real Estate Tax (IBI).
