Selling a property in Mallorca involves more decisions than initially apparent. The asking price, the actual tax liability, the state of the land registry documentation and the robustness of the deposit contract are all variables that determine whether the transaction will be profitable or generate problems. Most sellers discover this too late.
At Benavides we work from the seller's side: we calculate your net proceeds before setting the price, verify documentation is in order to avoid completion delays, and correctly settle taxes once the transaction is closed. A single team — legal and tax — for the entire process.
What's included
What the service includes
Each element is part of a coordinated process, not isolated services.
Independent Market Valuation
We produce a valuation based on recent comparable transactions, free from the bias of those seeking the sales mandate at any price.
Pre-Sale Tax Analysis
We calculate IRPF, municipal capital gains tax and IRNR (for non-residents) before setting the price, so you know your real net proceeds from day one.
Contract Review and Negotiation
We draft or review the deposit contract and deed protecting your interests: conditions, timelines, penalties and guarantees.
Urban Planning and Land Registry Review
We verify the property is correctly registered, with no hidden encumbrances or planning issues that could block the sale or generate future claims.
Notarial Coordination
We manage coordination with the notary, prepare the necessary documentation and attend the signing to ensure a smooth and incident-free process.
Post-Sale Tax Settlement
We file IRPF or IRNR self-assessments and municipal capital gains tax on time, and manage the refund of the 3% withholding where applicable.
Why Benavides
Selling well is not just finding a buyer
Most mistakes in a Mallorcan property sale are made before the first offer arrives: a poorly calculated price, incomplete documentation or ignorance of the actual tax burden. At Benavides we audit the transaction before it goes to market. Our team combines legal and tax expertise in real estate transactions with in-depth knowledge of the Mallorcan market, allowing us to anticipate problems that others would discover at the worst possible moment.

FAQ
Direct answers to the most common questions
If you have further questions, feel free to contact us directly.
Market value depends on location, floor area, condition, energy certificate and comparable supply at the time of sale. We produce a valuation based on recent actual transactions in Mallorca — not automated estimates or the bias of someone seeking the mandate. A well-grounded valuation prevents setting a price too high (prolonging the sale) or too low (losing money).
