FAQ
Canadian buyer FAQs
Can U.S. and Canadian buyers buy property in Spain?
Yes. Non-resident buyers can buy in Spain, but the process needs the right documentation, legal checks and purchase timing.
What legal checks matter before reservation?
Developer status, licence position, bank guarantee or deposit protection, payment schedule, reservation terms, contract terms and completion timing should be reviewed before you reserve.
What taxes and costs should I plan for?
Plan beyond the purchase price for purchase taxes, legal fees, notary and registry costs, banking, utilities, furniture, insurance and ongoing community fees.
Do I need an NIE?
Yes, buyers generally need an NIE for the purchase. We can point you to the right professional support so the process is handled properly.
Can I get a Spanish mortgage as a non-resident?
Often, yes. Non-resident mortgage options depend on profile, income, residency, currency and deposit level. We can introduce suitable mortgage support.
Can the process be handled remotely?
Much of the shortlist, comparison and document preparation can be handled remotely, with viewing trips focused on the best-fit developments.
How long does a new-build purchase take?
It depends on whether the home is key-ready, under construction or early off-plan. We compare expected completion and payment stages before you reserve.
Does the non-EU tax proposal apply now?
The proposal is not something we treat as active law. We can point you to qualified tax advice and keep the search focused on current rules and practical risk.
Why start with a shortlist before travelling?
A focused shortlist helps you avoid brochure-led mistakes and use your trip to inspect realistic options, not every development with a nice render.
Do buyers pay Daemi a fee?
No. Daemi provides buyer-side representation with no buyer-side fee because commission is typically paid from the developer or seller side.
