Buying Process in Mallorca

The general purchase process is the same as elsewhere in Mallorca. In Portixol, buyers should pay particular attention to coastal regulations, community rules for apartments, renovation permissions and the rental rules.

Legal Steps

  1. Obtain an NIE (foreigner identification number).
  2. Make an offer and sign the reservation agreement.
  3. Carry out due diligence: ownership, charges, licences and building status.
  4. Sign the private purchase contract and pay the deposit.
  5. Sign the deed in front of a notary and pay the remaining amount.
  6. Register the property in the Land Registry.

Taxes and Fees

Buyers must budget for transfer tax (ITP) on resale properties, or VAT and stamp duty (AJD) on new builds, plus notary, registry and legal fees. Rates and thresholds change, so confirm the current figures with your lawyer before making an offer.

Financing

Non-resident buyers can apply for a mortgage in Spain. Banks usually finance a lower percentage than for residents, so check the conditions before signing the reservation agreement.

Timeline

The time between the reservation agreement and the deed depends on the documentation and the financing, and is normally a matter of weeks to a few months.
