Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions about buying and selling property in Mallorca

The tax treatment depends primarily on your residence status. A tax resident in Spain pays capital gains tax through IRPF (between 19% and 28% depending on the amount). A non-resident pays Non-Resident Income Tax (IRNR) at 19% if resident in the EU/EEA, or 24% if from another country, plus Municipal Capital Gains Tax (Plusvalía) in both cases. Our team analyses your specific situation to optimise taxation within the applicable legal framework.

The capital gain is calculated as the difference between the transfer value (sale price minus transaction costs) and the acquisition value (purchase price plus costs and taxes paid at the time). It is essential to properly document all acquisition costs, improvements made and sale costs to reduce the taxable base. At Benavides Real Estate we help you run this simulation before the sale so you know your real net result.

Yes. Whether you live elsewhere in Spain or abroad, you can manage the entire transaction remotely by granting a power of attorney to a representative acting on your behalf. We coordinate all the steps: negotiation with buyers, contract signing, notary, tax management and land registry processing — all with complete legal security.

The basic documentation includes: original title deed, valid ID or passport, NIE (if you are a foreign national), certificate of no outstanding community fees, most recent IBI (property tax) receipt, energy performance certificate, and, if there is a mortgage, a certificate of outstanding balance. Our team guides you through preparing all the documentation and handles any pending formalities.

The average time for a sale transaction in Mallorca can range from 3 to 9 months, depending on the price, market demand and the legal and tax complexity of the transaction. With the right pricing and marketing strategy, and documentation prepared from the outset, it is possible to significantly shorten the timeline. At Benavides Real Estate we work to make the process as efficient and secure as possible.
