The Cost of Buying a Property in Mallorca
It is important to have clear from the outset the real costs you will face when you buy property in Spain together with the ongoing costs you will face as a property owner. Bear in mind that the actual cost will depend on your particular circumstances.
The Buying Process
You’ve visited various properties and made all the pre-arrangements. Now you are ready to make a decision, do the legal checks and formalise an agreement for your property in Mallorca. Mark Stücklin walks you through the Decision, Due Diligence & Contracts.
Open a Bank Account
Mark Stücklin tells us why you need a bank account with a local branch in Mallorca. Whether for the purchase itself or in order to make many of the usual payments that are part and parcel of owning a property in Mallorca.
Request a foreigner identity number – NIE (Número de identidad de extranjero)
All foreigners who are resident, own property in Spain or for some other reason pay taxes here have to get a Spanish NIE (Número de Identidad de Extranjero, or foreigner identity number) from the Government.
Pre-arrange mortgage
Get a mortgage broker in advance says Mark Stucklin. Most people need a mortgage to help finance the purchase of their property but even those people who can afford to buy without a mortgage may benefit from taking one out.
Open Foreign Exchange Trading Account
Most British people buying a property in Spain hold their own funds in Pounds Sterling rather than Euros, which means that they have to buy Euros before they can purchase a property. Mark Stücklin details why it is important to open a Foreign Exchange Trading Account.
Arrange holiday Home Insurance
Holiday home insurance is a specialist form of insurance for anyone who owns a holiday home. A holiday home insurance policy will offer protection against accidental damage and public liability protection giving you peace of mind.
Hire an Independent Lawyer/Solicitor
This is the single most important advice you can be given states Mark Stücklin. If you only happen to follow this first tip in this article the rest of the points mentioned become redundant. You need a lawyer you can trust on hand to check the very first contract you are expected to sign.
Getting ready to buy property in Mallorca
If you are serious about buying a property in Mallorca then you should get certain arrangements in hand at the very start of your property search. If you leave them until you have found a property you will have to act under pressure and in a rush.
Drawing up a clear property brief
The act of writing down a brief helps you clarify your thoughts and articulate your priorities. It also provides you with a useful document on which to base your search and communicate your requirements to estate agents and other professionals.
