Your property lawyer in Spain for sellers — tax planning, 3% refund management and ironclad contracts handled by one expert team.
Lawyer for Selling Property in Spain
Maximize Your Profit and Secure Your Sale
Selling a property in Spain involves a complex tax and legal burden. Our team ensures you pay the right amount of tax, recover your retentions, and protect yourself from future claims.
What's Your Situation?
Your tax and legal obligations vary greatly depending on your residency. We offer a specialized service for each case.
We manage the 3% retention, optimize your non-resident income tax (IRNR), and guide you through a complex process from a distance.
We calculate your capital gains tax in your IRPF, manage the plusvalía, and secure your reinvestment exemption.
⚠️ The Seller's Minefield
1. The Tax Office Hit
You celebrate the sale, but months later you receive a notice demanding €40,000 in taxes you hadn't planned for. Poor tax planning eats away your profit.
2. The Blocked Money
If you are a non-resident, the buyer must withhold 3% of the price. Recovering that €9,000 (on a €300,000 sale) is a bureaucratic maze. Learn about the 3% retention here.
3. The Post-Sale Ghost
A year later, the buyer claims €12,000 for hidden defects. A poorly drafted contract leaves you exposed to lawsuits and legal costs when you thought it was all over.
