Tax Advice Related to the Real Estate Sector
Taxes on Property Sales and Purchases
Taxes on the purchase and sale of real estate in Spain involve several obligations that should be well understood to avoid unnecessary costs. Among these are the Impuesto sobre Transmisiones Patrimoniales (ITP), the VAT (IVA) on new construction, and the Impuesto sobre Actos Jurídicos Documentados (AJD).
Our specialised team in real estate fiscal advice supports both national and international clients in planning and settling these taxes to ensure secure and transparent transactions.
Taxation of Non-Residents in Spain
Foreign investors and private individuals who acquire, own, or transfer properties in Spanish territory must comply with obligations such as the Non-Resident Income Tax (IRNR), withholding on transfers, or the declaration of assets abroad.
At Feliu Bellapart Solicitors, we offer a comprehensive service in non-resident taxation in Spain, ensuring regulatory compliance and maximising the benefits derived from double taxation agreements.
Tax optimisation in the ownership and transfer of real estate
Proper real estate tax planning allows for reducing the tax burden both in the ownership and transfer of real estate assets. Our firm advises on matters such as Property Tax (IBI), income imputations, municipal capital gains tax, and taxation under Personal Income Tax (IRPF) or Corporate Tax (IS).
Through appropriate legal and tax structures, we always seek the most advantageous strategy for managing each real estate portfolio, whether belonging to individuals, companies, or international investors.
