Buying Process in Mallorca

The general purchase process is the same as elsewhere in Mallorca. In Valldemossa, buyers should pay particular attention to the planning status of country properties, renovation permissions in the historic centre and the protection of the Tramuntana.

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.

Investment Potential in Valldemossa

Rental Yields and Tourist Licence

Holiday rental requires a tourist licence (ETV), and new licences are difficult to obtain, so investors look for properties that already hold a transferable licence. We do not offer yield promises: income depends on the property, the season and the licence.

Resale Value Drivers

Location, views, condition, outdoor space and architectural character are the main factors that affect resale value.

Things to Know Before Buying in Valldemossa

  • Rustic land: check what can be built or renovated on rural plots.
  • Historic buildings: renovation works in the centre need permissions and can take time.
  • Legal status: make sure that houses, pools and extensions are legal and match the registry.
  • Access and water: check road access and water supply for country properties.
  • Protected area: the Tramuntana is a UNESCO World Heritage landscape, which limits construction.
  • Visitors: the village is popular with day visitors, which can affect noise and parking near the centre.
